There is progress on the old window greenhouse, albeit slow. There will always be snags and unexpected expenses, making it important to be able to pivot.

I'm going for a scented theme here, along with some nasturtiums seeded here and there, both in the bags that I ordered online, and in the window boxes.

There are a few surprises in the mix too, like the stainless steel fruit basket that I decided needed a bit more rustic on it, so I wove jute cord through it to give it the same ambience as those coir basket liners.

I'll post about that in the next issue of Rurality, and you'll get an idea of how it will look with a plant overflowing, right next to the hummingbird feeder.

I like to take a thrift store find and take it to the next level with some customized upgrade or other. If it can be burned in the fire to take the finish off, or have something added to it, all the better.

Keep in touch if you have some interesting crafts planned, I love to hear about your inspiration and the execution of your ideas.

When you've built something you're proud of, brag it up! Most groups love to hear what others have been doing, so share your pictures on there with a write up on the project.

Or, you could share them on the Rustic Crafts page - scroll to the bottom of the page!
