Well it came as quickly as it passed by...
A weekend in colour ... lots of colour ...
Mexican in Freo...
... Shy Panther & Chet Faker ...
... at Mojos ...
... a walk in skins
(they look funny but they are great in
cold weather!
... clearing off the mandarin tree ...
... they taste like sherbet bombs!....
... enjoying the sunshine ...
... as we jabber and chat ...
... and prepare for family ...
... who'll be joining us for tea ...
... we picked lemons too - and froze the juice in
ice cube trays - refreshing in mineral water ....
.... spread the new tablecloth ...
.... float some flowers in a bird bath ....
... collect bunches of flowers ...
... and food from the garden...
... hang a few lanterns ...
... and of course eat some cake!
All in all a completely abundant and blessing filled
two days. Making me feel like I'm kinda the
luckiest gal in the galaxy.
On a different note - here's a quick DIY
project I just had to share.
HESSIAN COVERED POT PLANTER
Why?
Well we needed great big pots for a large
Ficus and very special Magnolia - they were
becoming rootbound in their existing pots.
What?
We found large plastic pots (cheap) & they were
easy to move as well as the perfect size - BUT - they
were black ... uh - uh!
So... hessian .. yes .. much nicer and cheap
and hardy and easy to work with.
How ?
Well Hubby held the pot on it's side and I wrapped
the hessian around leaving enough to tuck into the top
and bottom. I used string and a large embroidery needle.
It literally took five minutes.
Cool huh?
So if you have a planter you're not that
keen on ... hessian .. a great way to jazz up
a pot plant and/or turn something plastic into fantastic.
Hope your week has begun with a bang?
Plans? Outings? DIY projects? Work?
