Open Gardens, August 7:
Marjo’s wild and colourful, creative and playful garden was awarded in 2018 at Open Gardens.
In 15 years Marjo has transformed this 1000 m2 plot into a unique garden with pergola,
greenhouse, outdoor kitchen, mosaic works, mirror wall, and many other creative solutions.
Even her two poodles have a lovely & colourful garden house!
Marjo seems to love blue and tourquoise. In addition there was an outdoor exhibition of
her Barcelona based friend, painter Maija Tuurna.
Marjo’s bohemian style is not for everybody, but I enjoyed what I saw.
Especially I liked the mosaics, could also try myself as I have a lot of spare tiles.
The Gaudí bench was gorgeous - made by Marjo!
The creature on the right is part of an outdoor grill.
There were two old iron beds in the garden & chandeliers, lanterns & statues.
Maija’s naivistic & colourful paintings.
The tile work of the outdoor kitchen was creative.
Probably this red princess sofa was put out only for the theme day…
Mosaics on an ordinary big stone block.
A heart-shaped small table with mosaic.
Garden fairy.
The dogs’ garden house was open & cosy.
🍀🍀🍀
Wishing you a wonderful weekend!

So beautiful what the garden offers here.
VastaaPoistaThere are wonderful things there.
The bed, the sofa and especially the mosaic work.
Almost like Hundertwasser.
Good luck and greetings Eva
It is like a fairytale, the mosaics were great,!
PoistaThe dogs house is so gorgeous. It's all so lovely (and kooky). Reminds me of Le Moulin Jaune. I always watch their open weekends online...#FridayBliss
VastaaPoistaThank you Lydia, now I know what kooky means! Just the right choice😊
Poistawhat a wonderful garden! the mosaics are great and i would love to have a bench like that in the garden. my daughter's little dog would definitely love such a great house - so funny!! i love the photo with the red sofa!!
VastaaPoistahave a great weekend, dear riitta!
If I say my honest opinion: I found many ideas just super!!! But the garden was a bit messy, Nevertheless I could copy many ideas from there, especially the mosaics & tile work. I think it is great that people have the courage to create a garden that reflects their personality. Many new houses here gave gardens that are very ’sterile’ and built with big money,
PoistaIt is not for me, but I do find it fascinating. Perhaps even add some whimsy in my garden inspired by this one. I like the tree at the centre of the table.
VastaaPoistaIt is good to visit you again. Thank you for hosting.

I like the unique bench and colourful painting.
VastaaPoista...whimsical.
VastaaPoistaQuite dizzying use of colours. Looks like hardworking and passionate gardeners.
VastaaPoistawonderful place! I want to come too, and see all the beauty. Glad to see some poodles on pillows at the end!
VastaaPoistaTodella kaunis. Yhtä juhlaa. Olin iloinen jokaisesta uudesta nurkasta tässä kauniissa puutarhassa. Kuinka paljon ideoita... Olen innoissani. Pidän erityisesti mosaiikeista mitä erilaisimmissa malleissa. Kiitos iloisista kuvista. Toivotan sinulle hyvää viikonloppua. halata Viola
VastaaPoistaDear Riita,
VastaaPoistaI love different garden styles - I like calm and harmonious, but I also like colorful garden furnishings and creative design ideas - and I'm a big fan of Antoni Gaudi, Friedensreich Hundertwasser and Niki de Saint-Phalle anyway. So this garden gives me great joy and a lot of fun! However, I also think that some furniture or blankets, pictures and cushions were only taken outside for the exhibition...
All the best and happy weekend,
Traude

VastaaPoistaLiebe Riitta,
VastaaPoistaein wirklich sehr schöner Garten. Danke fürs Zeigen. Ein paar der Elemente erinnern mich auch an Hundertwasser, den ich auch sehr mag.
Ich wünsche Dir einen schönen Sonntag.
