Anybody in to Lego?

[Tracy Bowman]

Wow to the Lego's or my handy garden/flower work or both?

Both! But, I really love your yard.

Both! But, I really love your yard.

Yea, I assumed the yard was it

This is all in our screened-in back porch!

This is our Blackberry, Raspberry and Grape/Muscadine arch we built, then I used some Flagstone from the 60's to make a "floor" under it.

Harvest wasn't too good this year though... We got enough to make 6 small Mason jars of jam. Last year, we got a ton of Raspberries, but I ate most of them

We love nature and animals. One of our Pitbulls was playing with this bee and when it landed, I snapped a pic of it and the flower.

And here's said Pitbull, as she's jumping to get the bee

Sorry @Colo_Ranger for hi-jacking your thread, with all my other non-Lego stuff

Your place just looks so peaceful and beautiful. Great job!

Thanks!

It's peaceful to an extent... We live in a 1960's subdivision in Huntsville and most of the neighbors keep the yard looking nice, except for the 2 idiot on each side of us...

Finished bag 1. The instructions aren't that bad, but... they cover the RC version and the non-RC version, so you have to be careful to follow the right steps. This will be fun though.

Indeed the instructions are like that.

So, Thursday night, about 8:30pm, I told my wife I was going to build one of the new Lego Botanical Flowers and wouldn't you know it, at 3:15am Friday morning, I finally went to bed, after building 3 of 4 of them.

First the Bonsai:

And the Bonsai optional Blossoms:

Note, that the blossoms are indeed tiny pink frogs and a little info about them

Then, at the end of the Bonsai instruction manual, there were these awesome pics:

Then, I decided to build the Orchid:

Then, lastly, barely able to keep my eyes open, the Bird of Paradise:

Then, Friday afternoon, I built the Flower Bouquet and went to Hobby Lobby and bought the Blue Glass Vase:

Building the Lavender was a total nightmare and I might have to put some superglue on the blossoms.

I also ordered the remaining 4 Botanical Sets, Roses, Sunflowers, Tulips and the 9 Succulents, which should be here next week. I'll buy some more colored Hobby Lobby vases and I've got an idea on how to make it look like water's in the vases.

I built mine in 15 hours, you slacker!

I am taking time to build this one. I'm doing good on hours, just only doing a few at a time.

Also, I am missing pieces. I have an email out to Mould King. I can buy them from Lego, but I am hoping MK send them out for free. This is the second time I have been missing pieces. No biggie, its fun to build, but that's the difference between Lego and not Lego.
