friend just brought it round for me, now to get started. Any ideas about plants that would look good (need to be tiny)

What about some succulents?
Fantastic gift, very jealous!
Am sure someone with proper garden knowledge will be along shortly!

There are lots of teeny flowers that would work- alysum and violas maybe? What sort of plants do you like? My DM used to have a belfast sink by the kitchen door and used it for herbs.

Yes, herbs. Thyme has tiny flowers for one.

Have you seen these fairy houses? Can't believe people have enough time to waste spend on them but they're lovely.

Some lobelia trailing over the sides? Would contrast nicely against the white of the sink.

I used to grow strawberries in Belfast sinks.

Hellebores. They look lovely.
