We made a Tree Sprinkler!

running around DIY Tree Sprinkler

When you think back to your summers as a child what are one of the top memories that come to mind? I think a memory we probably all have in common is running through the sprinkler in your own front yard. We had the kind that was rectangular shaped, and sprayed the water front to…

From Pallet to Wine Rack

Between my pallet garden and my wine bottle gardens, you can easily see what my two favorite items in my crafting projects are. What can I say? I love pallets and there are just so many things you can do with them, and yet I see so many pallets just sitting on the sides of…

I love to garden. I wouldn’t say that I’m a pro, but do really enjoy it. If I had to guess the shade of my green thumb, I’d say it’s somewhere in the ballpark of Jade and Sea Green.   So after I made my pallet garden, of course winter came and all of the…

Valentine’s Day: Green is the new Red

My husband and I don’t do any of the typical Valentine’s gifts for each other, and we NEVER go out to dinner. I refuse to put myself and my husband through the stress of finding a sitter, driving through the traffic herd of other dinner goers, and then waiting an hour to be seating even…

I openly admit that most of my crafts are failures. My DIY projects rarely become anything I want to show anyone. Of all the projects that I’ve done, my biggest success to date is my Pallet Garden. OH! And my DIY Sidewalk Paint. Another success I’m proud of. Beyond that, though… eh let’s move on.

Pallet Garden: An Easy DIY Gardening Project

For all of us military momma’s who love to garden, but want something simple to do, that’s easy to move (should you choose to take it with you), and is fairly inexpensive (so you won’t cry if you have to leave it behind), this is a great gardening project for you. This project is also…
