Oh, I've got that spring urge...that urge to plant, and garden, and craft, and sew. I have oodles of sewing projects in my head :: quilts, summer dresses, shirts, headbands for little heads, and skirts. And oh, the garden...raised beds are a dream of mine and until that happens I will settle for container gardening. The little one is a great helper. She loves to plant the tiny seeds, but after a while she loses interest. So what is a mama to do? Why, take out some acrylics and let her decorate the plant pots!
So we did just that. She painted while I planted peas, lettuce, kale, spinach, and sunflowers. By the end of that I had five plant pots completely planted and painted! We also rode our wagon down to the garden center to get some pansies to plant in our window boxes. Our house is looking mighty springy!
And we haven't just been planting outside. Spring is the time to re-pot all our indoor plants. It's so nice to see these plants grow bigger and stronger month after month. And there's nothing like having lots of green in the house.
And just something cute...Sasa likes to send me mail. I particularly liked this clever postcard.
What are you planting lately?! I'd love to see some of your gardens for inspiration. Leave me a link!
