Quick Cute Fall Decoration

6 Nov

Moss

 

Rocks

 

Ross Moss final

 

I wanted a cute quick fall decoration and here it is!  My husband was out mushroom picking and found me some bright green moss and white-ish rocks.  I washed up the rocks, and tossed the moss on top!  Perfect for fall!  I might just put it on the table for Thanksgiving?

Happy Fall!

Ball Jar Herb Garden

Kerr Jar Herb 1

 

Kerr Jar Herb 2

 

Kerr Jar Herb 3

 

I was brainstorming ways to grow herbs for my husband, whom is a chef, and yes, I am spoiled I know, and I came up with this idea.  We drilled holes in the bottom of a Ball jar that we had in the cupboard, added some white rocks that we collected on the beach near our home, then dirt, then the thyme!  Boom!  Cute planter for herbs.  I am super pumped to be growing herbs verse paying $5+ for a package that we use half of and throw out.  Super wasteful!  Plus, its cute and sits in our glass window off the kitchen which is perfect for growing!  I plan on doing several of these!  Parsley is next!

Happy growing!

Put Your Lettuce Bottom In Water And Watch It Grow!

24 Jun

When I first heard that you can grow lettuce by simply putting your lettuce bottom in water, I was thinking to myself ‘why in gods name doesn’t everyone do this?!’  How is this not standard in every household to just grow yourself a head of lettuce with the bottom of the last one?!  Maybe the lettuce is bitter?  Maybe it doesn’t work?  I am not sure, but I will tell you one thing, I am giving it a whirl!  See the pic above.  To be continued as far as the the lettuce taste…..

 

Paint Your Garden Rocks!

7 Nov

Painted on some rocks and threw them in a planter next to my fall/winter cabbage!  Super fun to think of random words you can paint on the rocks.  I think I may add a few racy words on the next batch for my rose garden.
