I found this wonderful glass fish bowl
at Homegoods recently...
It's HUGE &
for some reason I just had to have it!
It's been sitting empty for a month.
Yesterday I had a minute...
(it was one of those minutes where you can either load the dishwasher like you need to OR ignore that & make a mess crafting)
I decided to put together a little plant terrarium in it,
I'm tickled with how it turned out.
Simple.
My favorite kind!
I kind of cheated here...
I had a plant that needed to be placed in a different container,
it was in a clear plastic container...
it fit perfectly in this bowl...
totally a match made in heaven...
totally a NON messy craft!
I used some sheet moss that I already had here,
& went around the sides of the plastic container that my plant was in.
Added some rocks & pebbles...
gave it a little drinkie poo...
All done. :)
I can't decide where I'm going to put it just yet so I have it in "limbo"...the spot in my living room that I am unhappy with & just stick things there hoping to have an eureka moment...
Inspiration...hit me with your best shot!!
I think I am going back to bed.
It's been a wild week.
Big O ended up with a broken nose after Tuesday night's football game.
He had surgery Wednesday afternoon.
He has been a trooper like no other, went to school yesterday even!
I've been worried to death about him...
anytime sedation is involved, my nerves are shot!
Miss O had to make a trip to the doctor yesterday,
she's managed to take on a fun viral wart that has gotten infected...
so last night between studying spelling words & the books of the bible I was attempting to have her swallow a horse pill (epic fail).
We're going to cash in for the liquid version today.
Did I mention that Daddy P has been out of town?
Thank goodness for Aunt Kim, Grandma & Nana!!
The crowning glory of my week was last night at bedtime...
Sneaky E climbs up in the bed with me & announces
"It's Snuggle Time!!!"
I nearly cried...
gosh, I needed a snuggle!!!
My goal is to get this kitchen island FINISHED today!
It could happen, it's just 8:30...
ha!
We'll see.
Happy Friday, Friends!
Mandy, you are the energizer bunny! And I love your week-end face. :) Love the terrarium and I think it would be great on a coffee table. How about an old typewriter next to a stack of old books on their side with a frame on top, in that spot you don't like so much? Can't believe big O was smiling like that with a broken nose. What a stressful week!
