Garden Centre, Concentrated Twee

Some time in the 1990's, Garden centres decided selling plants & huge bags of soil wasn't enough, and relaunched themselves as places for expensive lunches & fancy goods.

They hit on a winner, and Donaghadee Garden Centre is a fine example. With seasonal twee displays for garden inspiration & rooms of Cath Kitson homewares & scented Yankee Candles, it's more like an afternoon out than a trip to buy seeds.

I love a bit of garden centre twee, while not straight out kitsch, the indie side of me loves the cute displays & would love my garden to have the same feel.
