WIP Gazebo and Garden V2

Description

Another update on the gazebo garden.  The bonsai show inside the gazebo is complete, and I've started to add flowers to the garden.  I hope you can tell what kind of flowers they are... grape hyacinth, mother-in-laws-tongue, pea plant (in the pond rockery).  Since the photo I've made some tulips and lavender bushes but that will be for the next update.  The rose flowers were made by someone else, I just created the greenery and 'assembled' the plants.  They are truly perfect in every way and I wish I *had* made them!

I've also made a willow tree with a stick for the trunk, but all the branches and leaves are made with seed beads on wire.

23rd June was this...        And the final result in early August is fully shown and explained here...
WIP Gazebo and Garden by MayEbony                       Gazebo Show and Tell:iconflyingheartsplz: Hello dear Friends and Watchers :iconflyingheartsplz:
Well, as you are all probably too well aware, my recent big project was a Gazebo Garden, set during Springtime in England. For my own sake as much as anything else, and because my YouTube video failed in the sound department about half way through (their fault, not mine - the original film is fine), I thought I'd assemble some photos and include some chat about methods and equipment used - if anyone cares a jot ;)
The gazebo began as a 'flat pack' kit in plain wood. I actually bought it from our one 'minis' shop, which is of course far, far away from home :giggle:
But I bought it with the $50 voucher that I won at the 2014 show in the novice category. I'd only been doing minis for around 9 months and won the prize for this garden in a frozen yogurt tub...

The flowers were made with chopped up kitchen sponges of various colours and the water is glue from a glue gun.
