A Watering Can from Milk Jug

With spring just around the corner,

over here at Hometalk we decided to step up our plant game. The only issue was that we didn’t have a watering can. Of course we decided that we could make our own! We decided to wait until we finished our milk that we use for coffee and up-cycle it. We only had to wait about two days..

How to Make Tin Herb Planter

round ones, square ones, pastry ones. I like them all and I’ve built up quite the collection this past year.

Make Zest Garden!

Even though we have been kept pretty darn

busy with weddings and tastings this wedding season, we have managed to find time for some heavy lifting and landscaping this growing season. For those of you who are not in the “know,” we started a Zest Garden last year. Being able to grow things that are difficult to source or that we just plain-old use a lot of has been awesome!
We have had so much fun watching things shape up one project at a time in the Zest Garden. It’s obviously satisfying watching things grow, but we have been preoccupied with some bigger projects!
