And I know what you are thinking- geez louise woman, enough with the secrets!
But this is much worse than all of the others.
You see, I love things when they are nice and neat. I love to craft, to create, to beautify.
But my apartment is U.G.L.Y- it aint got no alibi.It's ugly, formt he front entrance in, out of shape old, and intimidating to any who want to remain healthy and alive as it looks like it could crack and fall to the ground at any time.
{here is my sad looking front door}
{and the part of the walkway directly to the left of the door}
Clearly, this is the area I am focusing on...
first:
* I forgot to mention you also need a helpful mom.
-The shepherds hook could go straight into the ground, unless you have ground like mine that is rocky and gross, plus I like the look of the pot planter WAY better
Step 1: Add bricks to the bottom of the planter for drainage.
Step 2: Place the hook inside the pot, you may need help (this is where mom comes in) :]
Step 3: Pour potting soil in to the pot, being sure to pack it in around the hook for added stability.
Step 4: Grab you plants, loosed the roots at the bottom, and plant them.
Step 5: Add your hanging plant or other to the hook.
Step 6: Admire the difference
Hopefully they will both come back and I will have a nice back drop of white with pretty and fragrant purple lavender.
Also the hanging flowers are pansies, in case you couldn't tell- just because they were cheapest, but I like them. I am working on a hanging welcome sign to add to the second hook.
What beautification project are you working on?
