A Visit to the New Local Produce Market

It’s that time of the month to look around my garden & yard & see what I’ve been up to.  The answer to that is – not much!  My garden & yard is long over due for a good clean up, especially after the bad weather from hurricane Irma.  No one wants to see that! […] Read more…

Magazine Rack Repurposed to Trellised Planter

Today’s DIY post does involve plants, but it’s still a DIY project!  I’ve got gardening on the brain right now y’all!  This was a quick little project that only takes a day at most.  That’s really only because of waiting for paint to dry.  A magazine rack repurposed also means one less thing in my […] Read more…
