“For glamorous people with dirty nails™”
All I have to say is, Garden Glory should have been at New York Fashion Week. “For glamorous people with dirty nails” is how Garden Glory embraces its fashionista, garden savvy, outdoor life-stylish client base – offering couture hose and rack options to suit any color palette. After seeing these, one can’t help but wonder how aesthetic options didn’t happen ages ago. I discovered Garden Glory at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair in New York (they were a favorite find of the show, mentioned in Huffington Post) – and have not stopped thinking about their products since. Every time I look at a “normal” hose (the only other kind available), I think of how brilliant the Garden Glory founder is to have thought of this idea. How overlooked this one item has been all these years… Outdoor design just got soooo much better.
The back story is fun.
When the founder of Garden Glory moved into her house in Sweden, she had a nice terrace and outdoor living space that would be used often to entertain friends, BBQ, and plant beautiful flowers around. The only problem was the ugly green garden hose with the bright orange nozzle. It was the eyesore that robbed the space of its beauty. So she got in her car and went on the hunt for a better looking hose, preferably a white one. She realized, many stores and internet research later, that there was no such thing… and had the mother-wit and entrepreneurial spunk to take that as a cue. Because of this missing link Garden Glory was born, and hoses are now a finishing touch to outdoor design. Not only did she set out to add aesthetics to the world of hose and hose wall mounts, but also to allow for very personal customization, mixing colors of hoses and accessories to suit customers’ own personal style. Well played, Garden Glory.
Where the options were none, they are now many. These elegant hoses bring a smile to my face every time I see them. Why shouldn’t gardening be glamorous? Why should you want to hide away your hose? This is brilliant. The gold is a hot seller, btw.
The color names are even fun:
Choose between colors such as Black Swan, White Snake, Candy Crush, Gold Digger and more. New colors, new items get added to the collection each season.
Respect:
Garden Glory products are all produced in Scandinavia with prime materials to reach for high quality and ethical working conditions.
Garden Glory is all about the Details
First of all, the packaging. Don’t get me started on the rush of excitement that runs through your body when you first see these separately packaged beauties. So 5th Avenue Chic, so Chanel.
And the Quality…
All Garden Glory hoses are manufactured in Scandinavia from carefully selected materials of the highest quality. This means that the tube has tricot reinforcement around the inner tube, instead of the cheaper cross-reinforcement. This makes the hose pliable and flexible and prevents kinking. Kinking is a common and irritating problem when you drag your hose around the garden.
The outer plastic has a dirt resistant surface and is UV-protected so that the hose will stay looking great year after year. The hoses are 130 ft, can be lengthened with an extender. The nozzles come in classic (plastic) and deluxe (brass).
COLOR YOUR GARDEN
Who wants to cut the red roses in ugly gloves? Where are all the dazzling rakes hiding? And why is no one wearing sequined rubber boots when it is pouring rain?
Garden Glory wants the outdoor life to be more beautiful, elegant and merry. That is why they are the first company in the world to design colorful garden hoses, nozzles and wall mounted hose holders. Garden Glory hoses inspire a dance through the pansies and getting out to nourish your precious flowers and zesty leaves. They can be placed on any walls and you can mix, match and have fun with the designs.
This is the one I ordered.
It is FABULOUS. The antler rack is light weight and super strong, made of iron and aluminium with powder coating. Of course I want to order MANY more gold antler racks for the Xmas season… how clever and beautiful would outdoor wreaths look on these? Garden Glory, you are extending the possibilities of outdoor creativity more than you even know!
