Unique bird house.

Here is an image that may throw any clue as to what it is. It is a bird house shaped like a caravan.

Ha, ha, I think it will attract more humans than birds. But I like it. But then I like bird houses of any shape and colors as long as they serve the true purpose of attracting birds.


Imagine your delight when you hear the birds call in your garden and you see the first bird exploring the safety of its new home. You can note the happiness in its voice to have found its home.

It will be the moment of your life.

Grow flowers on rails.


Not every one who loves indoor gardening will have space enough to keep even small flowering pots.

Here is a solution:
Look at this picture and see how snugly this planter grips the rail. Beautiful and quite innovative idea.

These railing planters come with adjustable grips to fit various sizes of railings. Another unique feature is, it comes fitted with a lower reservoir where excess water gets collected.

Just above the reservoir, a tray with small holes is fixed so that the roots of the plant find the water when the soil gets dry.

We never have to call a utility man to drill aa hole to fix ugly clamps to install this railing planter. No tools, mounting hardware or drilling required.

It is sold for $29.95 at First Street.
