Spring fever in New Zealand

"Spring is the perfect time to get stuck into the garden. Head along to Palmers Planet to find all of your gardening needs in one spot. If you are anything like me you may need to put a limit on your spending before you jump in the car, this is a gardeners dream store. You also may need to make more than one trip, I have no doubt that you will end up coming home inspired with a list of things to measure and convince your lovely partner are spring garden essential. (Maybe don’t mention the new irrigation system.)"

"Spring conjures up thoughts of wild flowers and new beginnings and there is nothing like a good old fashioned spring clean to bring in the new season. After you have thrown that ugly sofa out the winter and the dining table has wedged itself in your stairwell you are going to need a few new items to replace them. If you are looking for something a little trendy with a bit of charm then you need to head over to Junk and Disorderly. This place is a warehouse jam packed full of treasures. Be prepared and hire a trailer on your way, you are going to need it!"
