I'm a gardener - and these are the gifts on my Christmas wish list!

Are you a gardener, or do you know one? Do you need a good gift for a gardener? I love gardening and I know what I'd like to get, so I suggest some of the items on my gift wish list which are focused on the craft and love of gardening.

Gifts featured here range from under $10 to over $150... so hopefully there's something for every budget!

...a humane garden protection device!

Contech CRO101 Scarecrow Motion Activated Sprinkler

Amazon Price: $42.02 (as of 05/28/2012)

This amazing sprinkler detects motion, so when an animal ventures into the garden it comes to life and emits a spray, frightening the little beasties away. I know there are small animals everywhere, but here near my cabin in the mountains this would be especially helpful for frightening away larger creatures like deer, bears, and raccoons!

2. Gardening Spring Bucket

...sturdy, collapsible, and strong.

Toro 29210 43-Gallon Gardening Spring Bucket

Amazon Price: $20.99 (as of 05/28/2012)

This is one of the best spring buckets available - with 43 gallon capacity, so it is also one of the largest. You can put a large plastic trash bag into it to collect gardening waste. When done, it collapses to only 3 inches for storage - and it is mildew resistant!

3. Micro-Tip Pruning Snip

...very handy for trimming back a lively garden!

Fiskars 9921 Softouch Micro-Tip Pruning Snip

Amazon Price: $6.91 (as of 05/28/2012)

These micro-tip pruning snips are very handy for trimming back herbs and flowers. My herb garden - mint, sage, lemon balm, rosemary, chives, oregano and more - constantly needs pruning back. These snips are much lighter and easier to use than my other pruning devices.

4. Garden Bucket Caddy

...oh, the convenience of it all!

Fiskars 9424 Garden Bucket Caddy

Amazon Price: $9.82 (as of 05/28/2012)

This clever little device wraps snugly around a 5-gallon bucket (get the bucket and tools separately). There are pockets for everything... even a cell phone and seeds, and the beverage du jour. This saves so much time and energy.... you get out into the garden and have the tools at your fingertips rather than back on a nail attached to the porch.

5. Mobile Garden Stool and Storage

...a place to sit and everything handy!

Step2 5A0000 Garden Hopper Mobile Garden Stool and Storage

Amazon Price: $24.88 (as of 05/28/2012)

A sturdy and solid little stool on wheels with a bit of on-board storage. The older I get, the more I'd love to have one of these to pack along when I weed my garden!

6. Tool Tower Rack with Casters

...holds 36 tools!

Rubbermaid 5E28 Deluxe Tool Tower Rack with Casters, Holds 40 Tools

Amazon Price: $47.02 (as of 05/28/2012)

Obviously useful! Garden tools get tossed in the corner, lost, left in the garden... and ultimately take up a lot of space looking disorganized and uncared for. This little storage device can help.

7. Garden Performance Gloves

...these are the best (in my opinion)!

Youngstown Glove 04-3800-30-L Women's Garden Glove Performance Glove Large, Burgundy

Amazon Price: $14.99 (as of 05/28/2012)

I've looked at a lot of garden gloves and found these when I was making my lens on preparing garden soil. Ever since I made that lens, I've been hungering over these sturdy and lovely gloves. One of these days, I'll own them!

8. An Adorable Garden Gnome

...protector of great gardens!

Terrapin Trading, C5/TDE-48254, Garden Gnome, Large

Amazon Price: $44.95 (as of 05/28/2012)

An adorable garden gnome! Something your loved one probably wouldn't buy for him or herself... but this is finely crafted of durable polyresin and precious as can be. 19.5: tall.

9. Hardwood Chaise Lounge

...for relaxing after gardening!

Strathwood Basics Hardwood Chaise Lounge

Amazon Price: $124.99 (as of 05/28/2012)

I've had my eye on this chase lounge for over a year now. It would be such a huge improvement over my flimsy camping chair!

10. Slate & Marble Firepit

...with copper accents.

UniFlame WAD820SP 34-Inch Slate & Marble Firepit with Copper Accents

Amazon Price: $147.76 (as of 05/28/2012)

I'd love to have this beautiful firepit on my patio. Perfect for winter warmth or roasting marshmallows on a summer night. Very romantic and functional, especially when you have guests.

Any comments?

...what would you like to have for your gardening activities?

I have a mobile garden stool and I love it. I'd recommend it for any gardener that doesn't already have one. Mines seen a lot of mileage and is still going strong. The best feature is being able to store seed packets and hand held gardening tools etc. directly beneath you for easy access.

I would love to have that motion activated sprinkler in my veggie garden, maybe then I could keep the bunnies out.
