Welcome to Maison Oscar

What started as a simple curiosity has turned into a hands-on learning experience filled with trial, error, and small victories. 

I’m learning as I go—experimenting with what grows well, figuring out what doesn’t, and adapting along the way. Maison Oscar is where I document the process, from planting to harvest, with a focus on practical experience rather than perfection.

 

I share easy DIY garden projects and seed starting ideas that work with what you already have. Whether you’re working with a small balcony or a full garden bed, you’ll find affordable, beginner-friendly inspiration here.
