"How Does Your Garden Grow?"



 In honor of spring , today's creation is a garden. It features a pond, trees and flowers. Our minifigure Reagen is watering the plants with her watering can.

 The pond has a small waterfall. The white pieces are the foam.
 Here is a closer view of the garden's foliage. We have the cone shaped tree and flowers from our Dad's old sets, but those are pretty much the only plant pieces we own. The taller tree is made of several pieces.
 This tree has some brown plates and cylinder bricks for it's trunk. Some lime green plates and a circular green plate form the leaves.
 If you don't have plant pieces, find green and brown pieces to build your own tree!

 If you want to know how the build Reagen's watering can, here you go:
 Watering Can
  • 2 faucet pieces
  • 1x1 plate with horizontal clip
  • 1x2 brick
All the pieces should be the same color. White is pictured here.
  Clip one faucet to the clip plate. The other, place on top of the brick.
 Now place the clip plate on the brick as shown. Ta-da!

Time to water the garden!
If you build your own garden, try expanding it. make a little stream with blue plates and build a bridge over it. Add a bench, or a pathway. The point of LEGO pieces is to be creative with them!
