New Upcycle Ideas 782

Every Friday, 7pm through Wed, 11 pm pacific

Greetings all!

The heat is on again over here on the west coast of BC, Canada! Thanks to the wonderful weather, I’ve really been putting some serious time into the garden, and cannot wait to show you all the new things!

And here’s one of them…

Cold frame made from an old window

 

Easy DIY cold frame using an old window

I have never had a cold frame before in my garden. However after being challenged to make something for the garden with old windows, I sure do now! And put it to work immediately, already seeing an astounding difference in growing fussier peppers! Which prove this idea works, and couldn’t be easier to make. And it looks cute too! Come on over and see how it works!

I’m also taking on more gardening work, as I have a gardening business on the side. So we shall see what that means for productivity shared on the blog… eep! But it’s exciting all the same. I love the gratification of improving someone else’s space, attempting to turn it into a sanctuary of their own! Never saw this coming, yet here we are.

So until there’s more to share, let’s check out this week’s upcycle project features from last week’s party, then see what’s brand new in the linkup!

Are you too a collector of rusty nails? I sure am! But never have I ever imagined creating a rusty nail hedgehog out of mine until now! Oh my gosh… I need one! haha And it is SO easy to make! But of course now my head is buzzing in all kinds of take-offs of my own on this one…  rusty nail flowers perhaps?! Thanks Michelle! Prickles is the cutest!
