FIRST SPRING PROJECT

 Yesterday nice and sunny!

Today, cold and rainy.

 

I'm glad I got some pictures of my garden

and spring trees because after today

who knows what it will look like.

I think they are predicting

in the 30s tonight.

Yuck!

 

 

Anyway, I started my Spring

 project list yesterday.

Last year I had found these little pots at

 Salvation Army.

I had seen a succulent wreath on Pinterest

and thought I'd give it a try.

 

 

Now keep in mind this is just an experimental project.

It may not pan out at all.

Sometimes I think the things you see on pinterest

are great but when you get right down to

brass tacks...they don't work at all.

 

First I wired the pots to a grapevine wreath.

 

Then I searched in my lingerie drawer

 for a pair of old pantyhose.

 

 

Filled the legs with succulent soil.

 

 

Also made some little balls for

the upside down pots.

 

I had some sad little pots of succulents

that barely made it through

the winter.

 

I wrapped the pantyhose legs around the pots

and planted the succulents I had

in some of the pots.

Now keep in mind I know

I need to buy a few more succulents.

 

 

You are supposed to break a little hole through

the pantyhose and plant you succulents,

they should spread...

we'll see.

 

 

This was my inspiration picture,

sorry not very clear.

For all I know these succulents

were artificial.

Again I say...

we'll see.

 

I'll give you an update

in about a month.

By the way, newsflash

Its now snowing outside,

I can't believe it.

Double Yuck!

 

Happy Gardening.
