This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Bulbs. Dig, Drop, Done. for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.
Curbside Chaos, a cool site about all things gardening, picked one lucky winner to recieve a $5,000 yard makeover. Watch as Ruth from Fairfax, Virginia gets a backyard transformation.
Oh how I would have loved to have won that outdoor revamp. If only you could see how badly we need it. I should have entered! Please Taniya Nayak, come on over anytime. I love that they incorporated bulbs of several different flowers to bring color pops to the yard. Bulbs are so simple, just dig, drop, done, and viola… beautiful blooms year after year.
I would be all for that with my makeover. How about you? There is a handy tool you can use called the Garden Guru advises you on what bulbs are best for your part of the country and how/when to plant them to bloom when you want.

See how simple? I am no gardener, and I could definitely handle bulbs. Besides, bulbs are not just for the gard. They have so many creative uses to, such as gifts and home decor.
Dig. Drop. Done. has put together a campaign to motivate you to plant bulbs and make your world more beautiful. There are three characters; Marcy the supermom, Juliana the fashionista and Evelyn the empty nester. I can relate the most to Juliana, who is new to gardening and doesn't want to chip a nail. I love that her bulbs were so easy to plant that she forgot she did it, and was surprised to see the blooms that spring. That totally sounds like a "me" moment. She shows how you can even spruce up your apartment balcony by planting bulbs. No need for a yard! The ladies all have tips and tricks, delivered in entertaining, informative, hilarious videos; visit www.digdropdone.com to learn more.
