New Profile Picture

I’m thinking this one will stay a while.

What websites are good to get agere gear from?

I really wanna get a bottle, some onesies and some new pacis but don’t know the best places to find them! Preferably a place that won’t have the contents in the parcel written on the label on the parcel because I still live with my parents. And also! A place that ships to NZ :)

Please recommend some websites if you know of any! (So far I know eBay has stuff).

My porcelain dolls Eloise (left) and Emily (right).

I got Eloise as a birthday present and then Emily is my mum’s old doll. I have a third doll but her hair needs to be detangled and I still have to name her yet. I’m planning on posting her later once she’s had some TLC 🧡

Do you have any porcelain dolls?

Is uploading multiple posts in a day annoying/too much or is it really nice?

Cause when I have a good day I just wanna take photos and share it all, but I don’t wanna be overwhelming or irritate anyone! I currently have a bunch of drafts just waiting to be uploaded aha 😅

I felt cute today so here’s me with a red rhododendron!

Rhododendrons are toxic to our (NZ) native bees :(( Makes them drunk :(

I really like our native bees because they’re mostly solitary bees that live in burrows in the ground (not hives)!

They’re very small and more black than yellow.

They have a wasp-like look to them.

Our native bees either don’t have stingers or they’re so small it doesn’t hurt! They also don’t really use them. Tend to leave people alone.

I find that bumblebees are very rude and get wayyy too close to my face! Native bees are so much friendlier.

Our native bees also don’t make honey and instead eat nectar and pollen! Kinda like fairies hehe.

Male bees will also tidy up female bees burrows or make her a burrow to live in to impress her. I personally think that’s very romantic of the male bees heh. What’s better than beeing gifted a house!

I really recommend you research native bees in your area! It’s so interesting to learn about :))

Japanese Garden Colouring Page :)

Japanese Gardens and Chinese Gardens Facts :3

Japanese gardens are more about shapes rather than flowers so they’ll prune flowers off of bushes and prune the bushes into shapes (very commonly spheres).

Chinese Gardens are very heavily based around water (ponds, lakes, waterfalls) and rocks/mountains (typically harvested rock from Lake Tai), but since it rains so much in Japan their gardens typically don’t have water features.

Japanese gardens are a space of zen and meditation. They are more to be looked at rather than interacted with. Chinese Gardens are about connecting man with nature and are meant to be interacted with and explored.

Japanese gardens feature the iconic bright red bridges! While Chinese gardens have the (also iconic) zig zag bridges to prevent spirits crossing the water.

Buildings in Japanese gardens are less decorative and more natural vibing, while in Chinese gardens are are very decorative and colourful.

Both are very cool gardens and I’ve done a lot of research into Chinese gardens because I am an apprentice gardener and I sometimes work at one! It’s not in China but the stone and buildings came from there :3

Feel free to ask questions about gardening and garden styles! 🧡🌙✨
