Weekend10

As part of my word WHOLE this year, I want celebrate the work of others by sharing links to my friends, possible friends and complete strangers who are doing great things on the Internet. This is some of the rad stuff I recently saw online…

I'll get on board with the cactus trend.

always impressed with ban.do's branding.

so fun to see different cover versions of the same book.

66 things you can grow in containers.

gorgeously simple wind chimes.

talk about a reason to collect sea glass.

the most simple stamp makes the best pattern.

this is the first DIY project I ever pinned and I still want to make it.

the reluctant father (thanks, v).

I've talked about putting a track door in our bedroom for a year and I am commited to getting it up in the next 60 days or else.

there's no such thing as a green thumb.

    I love the bag, too. And I’ve always thought that about people who say they don’t have green thumbs–it’s probably just that they are careless in taking care of the plants. You wouldn’t do the same to a pet, would you? Not to compare the two, but I’m glad someone else agrees about the green thumb myth.

    Love your posts about gardening! I’m trying container gardening on my new apartment balcony for the 3rd year in a row… hoping this is the year things take off and we get more than 5 tomatoes.

    Always love this.
    I was watching a show you the other night, a gardening segment and they said “remember you are growing soil first and plants secondary”. Had to share with you!

    I love that you’ve started doing these types of posts. I always find a new blog or website that gets me inspired.
    Since you mentioned getting on board with the cactus trend I figured it wouldn’t hurt to share with you a recent cactus inspired project I did,
    http://hellonvmbr.blogspot.com/2014/03/cactus-painting.html
    It’s style was inspired by your flamingo painting πŸ™‚

    Thanks so much for sharing our post on 66 Things You Can Grow in Containers. It is our most popular post to date. We will be sharing more good stuff on container gardening, along with keeping backyard chickens, and more organic gardening and homesteading tips for the small farmer/gardener.
    Love your blog and all the fun stuff you share with your readers.
    All the Best,
