Welcome to Among the Lilacs! I’m Natalie, a wife, mom, and devoted hobby gardener with a passion for bringing the beauty of each season into our home and garden.
My love for gardening started early, when I learned tips and tricks from my mother, aunts, and grandmother. By watching them, I began to understand the healing powers of gardening. Their wisdom shaped how I care for plants today and continues to inspire me as I cultivate my own garden for my family.
As a mom to a lively toddler, I love creating a home filled with seasonal touches that celebrate the joys of each season.
Whether it’s planting greens in our raised garden, creating beautiful succulent arrangements for our patio, or crafting herb-infused ornaments for the holidays, I love finding small ways to make each season special and unique. It brings me deep joy and a connection to nature.
I believe anyone can create a beautiful, thriving space with just a few plants and a bit of inspiration!
My goal with Among the Lilacs is to share everything I’ve learned along the way, from gardening tips and family-friendly holiday ideas to easy ways to bring nature indoors with the help of low-maintenance houseplants, succulent crafts, and herb-infused recipes.
Join me as I explore the beauty of seasonal living and share practical tips to make your home a sanctuary that celebrates each season, just as we do!
