Trend alert: Lately we’ve been noticing garden tools, totes, and togs in soothing shades of dark green (mirroring an interior design trend that the Remodelista editors noted recently). Here we’ve rounded up 10 olive garden favorites.
Above: An olive Japanese Tool Carrier made by Matsunoya is £110 from Labour & Wait. See more of our favorite canvas gardener’s tool bags in 10 Easy Pieces: Soft Garden Totes. Above: An olive green Carbon Steel Hand Trowel with a rust-resistant powder-coated blade has a hole in the handle to make it easy to hang from a hook for storage; $6.01 from Sears. Above: Available in olive, a leather pair of Briers Washable Gardening Gloves is £10.07 from Mole Valley Farmers. Above: Made by Water Right, a 50-foot Polyurethane Slim & Light Drinking-Water Safe Garden Hose is $69.95 at Amazon. Above: An olive green Women’s Garden Apron from Esschert Design has multiple pockets to carry tools and is $29.68 at Amazon. Above: A Japan-made Trusco Tool Box (model T-320) is “a medium-sized flat box with a collapsible handle and a metal latch with space for a 25mm padlock,” notes retailer Rikumo. Made of painted steel, it is $34. Above: A small olive green Watering Can with “an ‘anti-spill’ top, and a narrow spout, which the retailer notes makes it easy to direct water into the pot, not onto the floor” is £26 (currently out of stock). For restocking information, see Labour & Wait. Above: An olive green Carbon Steel Hand Fork has an ergonomically designed handle, curved for comfort; $6.74 from Sears. Above: Okabashi’s olive green Copenhagen Clogs are waterproof and made of 15 to 25 percent recycled material in Buford, Georgia; $18.99. Above: A collaboration between New Zealand home goods shop Everyday Needs and bag designers Deadly Ponies, the Garden Bag is made of waxed cotton; $115 NZD ($83 USD) at Everyday Needs.
