Egg Carton Flower Crafts

Flowers made from recycled paper pulp egg cartons are nothing new - As a matter of fact, I remember them from grade school! (certainly not going to give away my age here, but let's just say that was well over 3o years ago!) 

In any case, egg carton flower crafts are a great way to recycle paper pulp egg cartons. The cartons can easily be cut, shaped, and painted to look like a variety of different flowers. This is a craft that the entire family can do together, and that makes it even better!

As for the flowers, check out the varieties I've gathered here for you. 

Personally, red poppies are my favorite... 

I might have to fashion a garland of those for myself!

Enjoy!

Hanging Basket Herb Garden DIY

If you're short on space but still want to grow your own fresh herbs for cooking, why not create a hanging basket herb garden? 

Use a three-tiered metal mesh hanging kitchen basket, line it with a coco moss outdoor planting basket liner (available at garden supply centers), and trim with scissors to fit the mesh hanging baskets. Fill the lined baskets with soil and herbs, water, and that's it!

 What's neat about this project is that it's mobile.

 Hang outdoors for growth, and then bring inside and hang in a sunny kitchen window during the cooler months.
