9 pretty herb bouquets in New Zealand.. can be a great alternative..
Herbs bouquets can be a wonderful way to decorate your home this Christmas! I am trying to be a little bit greener and this is a great way to do it.
First, here are some different herbs with red berries from my garden. The other great thing about using herbs in your home is they not only look good, but also smell amazing!
Rosemary and red berries
Bay leaves and red berries
As you can see I love using my ironstone jugs and mason jars. I am happy to have now found a great use for this vintage silver trophy cup, which had been sitting in a box for years. Do you have any silver trophy not been used at your place?
Parsley, rosemary and red berries
Herb bouquet with irises
A wonderful way to bless a friend is give them a bouquet of herbs and flowers when they come around to visit.

It is really easy to buy herbs these days in the supermarkets, at the market, at a plant nursery, garden shop. When you plant them most of the time they grow without much attention. Some water in the summertime if outside, but water all year around if inside. You do have to keep picking them otherwise they grow into flowers and seed. But, the flowers and seeds can be pretty as well.
I am growing a rosemary topiary for Christmas, see my post about it here. They make really lovely Christmas decorations or a gift for a friend.
Thanks for reading my post!
