Guest Picks: Essentials for the Classic Garden
Get ready for spring gardening by replacing your rusty tools with these attractive updates
Once the snowflakes first appear I can't wait for spring and for my garden to begin. Alas, in New England that's still a few months off, but at least I can start stocking up on new garden accessories! Here are some handy tools that have been crafted with as much love and care as your garden. — Justine From Design Skool

Forged floral scissors are as graceful and organic as the flowers themselves. They are so lovely, you may want to leave them out right next to the vase.

Almost nothing is more magical than moss, yet it's hard to transplant and expensive to buy. So I'm excited to try this Moss Milkshake. Just add water to create a 10- to 20-foot carpet of green.

I do love traditional twine, but a bit more fun are the lively hues by hempCRAFT. My favorite colors are this moss green and the nasturtium orange. And they are equally useful inside to adorn your gifts.

I love an English garden — the real, rustic variety — attached to a country cottage. To me this simple, natural willow trellis is the essence of Old World style.
