Mission for the weekend? To conquer my shoes and jewelry in our bedroom. For my shoes, I got rid of 10 pairs, and hung the rest on the back of our door. If I get another pair, I’m going to force myself to get rid of another, because I won’t have anywhere else to put it. I hang my boots in my closet on skirt hangers like I saw from this pin! more on that later..
wahoo!! check one.
Sprouting wheat grass is super easy. Promise. It has to be easy, or I wouldn’t do it again.
1. Gather some wheat kernels (I used hard red wheat) or go to your local health food store and tell them you want to sprout wheat grass and they should point you in the right direction.
Soak them in water overnight, or until you see sprouts starting to pop through.
2. Sprinkle over soil in containers and lightly kind of mix it in, but you don’t want them covered with dirt. Spray water daily to keep moist. Mine was pretty sparse last year, so I layed it on thick this time and was much happier with the results.
3. Watch it grow!! Mine has been growing for 2 weeks and I’ve already given 2 haircuts.
These are tins from Target Dollar Spot:
4. If it starts looking limp, water.
An easter basket in the kitchen for spring:
5. Cut it with scissors if you want to. It smells so good when it is being cut! Just like a freshly mowed lawn in the summer…
Some wild and unruly grass on top of the piano:
I’ve found it’s just about perfect if I start growing the grass 2 weeks before easter~it would be cute for the Easter table to tuck some eggs inside. Here is an update of how mine looked over 2 weeks:
I’ve also seen it recently in stores with the seeds:
Happy grass growin’!
* bunny’s back! But it won’t be in time for Easter…(well, they were back this morning, looks like they are gone again!)
*are you a font-aholic? Some very talented ladies have shared their favorites~I love these and they are all free! -links to favorite fonts on my pinterest page
Doesn’t it look inviting and master-ful?? Here’s our next project:
This was during the bathroom reno, but still.
Remember how I was going to start sharing tips more often…back in November?? Yea, well here’s #2…four months later.
bear with me! Have you removed the doors and gone with baskets anywhere? I kinda like the warmth and texture it adds next to the sleek, cool dishwasher.
Some more follow-up questions on the master bath:
How did you paint your vanity?
Basically, this is how it goes:
1. clean & sand it down~this will increase paint adhesion. It doesn’t have to be bare wood, enough to remove most of the outer finish. I like to use liquid sandpaper for the base cabinet.
2. apply 2 coats of Zinsser primer, sanding in between with a fine sanding block.
