The long weekend for the Fourth of July has given me some time to focus on the projects around our place that I've wanted to dig into, like getting more greenery into our daily life, and planning some herbs out on the patio.
I'm finally really feeling settled into my life at my job and my home with Charlie. The long weekend for the Fourth of July has given me some time to focus on the projects around our place that I've wanted to dig into, like getting more greenery into our daily life, and planning some herbs out on the patio.
I got some cute 3" succulents from Home Depot this morning and planted them in pint mason jars to put on the coffee table.
I also used mason jars to make myself a tiny herb garden out on the back porch.
I picked up a pack of Ball Dissolvable Labels to use to label the jars. I think they turned out really cute! Once some green starts popping up I'll share more photos. I'm hoping the glass jars make up for the shady sunlight my porch gets most of the day and helps these little guys grown strong and tasty.
I've been having a lot of fun with the Aviary iPhone app lately, too! I love the filters on the succulent pictures.
Today's main project, though, was to make a hanging basket for my craft room/office out of some Fettuccini t-shirt yarn. It's been quite a workout.
I don't do a ton of giant crochet so I feel like my arms are flapping around like a chicken's wings when I use that 11.5mm hook. But it's been fun and I think the hanging basket will turn out really cool when it's finished. More on that soon!
Have a great weekend!
