What other Gift Wrap A Garden customers say about us:

"...The packaging was wonderful, like a Christmas present (no kidding) everything was there and even some extras. We'll definitely do business with them again."  -- Garden Watchdog Customer Comment, Aug.02

"Thank you so much. One daughter has received the gift and LOVED it; the
other will receive hers this weekend and I'm sure she is going to be
thrilled! New house; new gardens! Two new, future customers for you,
I'm betting!  I'm excited to received my own as well. Can't wait to get them
started!  Thank you for all your helpful planting/growing tips and your wonderful
customer service. That is so refreshing!"  -- Michigan customer, April 2003

(Note: ALL of our seeds are packaged to plant a 10 by 2 foot row, or 20 square feet of garden. Five packs of seeds, therefore, will plant about a 100 square foot garden, for example.)

ORDERING A COLLAGE

Creating a unique collage takes time and requires some customer interaction in the process.  Here are  our suggested steps:

1. Decide placement of the collage first. 

2. Decide what size framed collage fits best in your selected area

3. Decide what event your collage will commemorate (i.e., wedding/wedding showers, birthday, vacation, dance recital, fashion show, holiday get together, birth of a baby / baby showers, Halloween, Christmas or other holiday celebration, christening, family reunion, special award ceremony, recognition event such as a retirement party or “celebrity roast” of a friend, prom activities, homecoming, political rallies, civic organization conference, graduation, or anything suitable for capturing in a photo such as a collection of woodland and wildlife scenes.)

4. Gather or take the photos you will use for the collage.  

5. Gather other mementos of your event (i.e., a child themed birthday party hat, a special card received for the event, the speech given at the commemorated retirement or wedding banquet, a baby bootie from the infant’s hospital trip home to join the family,  etc.)

6. Send them to SBaller@lobatek.com as a digital file by either scanning or a camera dump.    Be sure the quality is high enough to produce a good photo.

7. OR you may send originals or prints and reduce your costs by 25% off the unit price.   It takes time , ink, and printer paper to create photos from digital formats.   We will return any unused photos to you with your order.

8. Select the frame you want for your photo collage.  The customer buying this locally will insure the glass frame won’t get broken in shipment.    We can also work with 3-D frames or shadow boxes for a different affect and look. 

9. Tell me what color and material make up your selected frame. If you wish, we can select an appropriate frame for you, however it will be an additional cost.

10. We’ll do the rest.  I will select a suitable matting and scrap-booking or other materials to help shape the collage and make it unique per your order.  Once we receive the  photos and payment, we will go to work to meet your deadlines for returning the finished collage back to you.   

11. Hang the child’s birthday party or other celebration collage low enough so the smallest child can see it.  I guarantee they will make a bee-line for it each time they come to visit .

Corporate Guarantee and statement of interest in Special Projects:  We stock excellent seed for home and garden!  Thank You for shopping with us today!  The shopping cart and order forms reflect the price and product changes starting with the Year 2007 Catalog Offers. Liability for products sold extends only to the replacement of the seed purchased, or you may request different stock, the total value equal to your original order. The reasons are obvious -- we cannot control the weather or conditions under which our stock is planted once it leaves the Farm.  Redbud Farms gifts many special projects for seniors and disadvantaged persons seeking to experience the beauty and serenity of working with flowers.  We are particularly interested in "Horticulture as Therapy" projects or those in which Zinnias are thematic  (i.e., one community we talked with asked us to sponsor their "Zinnias in Zion" project this summer.) Our sincere hope is that you enjoy our purchase and collect your own seeds to enjoy Van Dyke Zinnias for many years to come.  -Sharon Baller, President
