line the baskets with a bandana or burlap, a linen towel, tie a colorful ribbon on the handle

pool balls and tennis balls look great too - how about a mini urn with golf balls - a great gift if you do it up in a clever way - COME ON - let's see some ideas! Jennifer

The Artistic Garden site - Hypertufa ideas

great ideas!

I'm a sucker for spheres,

gardening, projects, nature, more projects.

I have spheres in my home and also tucked in

various gardens in every shape and size. I came

upon this site at The Artistic Garden @ www.the-

artistic-garden.com and loved the recipes &

projects described and shown on the site.

HYPERTUFA - how easy is it to do - have you?

Hypertufa...... another idea.... another project..

have you made one?

was it difficult? expensive? fun?

tell me your experience - I'd like to try it!

Steppin' up!

My friend Karen is making stepping stones for herself and to sell so I said "why not" and found these! I'm not sure which ones I'll make because as you on line surfers might know .... there are so many many ideas out there and so very many creative people. I've seen them with round stones, glass, shells, impressed with ferns and on and on. I'm partial to beach glass so I think I might do something with that...but one never knows. When I visit family at the beach in NJ this summer and my parents in Florida - I plan to collect all sorts of beach stuff. I have yet to find 1 teeny piece of beach glass though. The search continues...

Wonderful ideas for your home and garden! So many creative people....

Wreaths made out of garden hoses are just great for Spring and Summer - on a fence post, mailbox or front door.

I discovered these instructions and photos on making troughs for plants - Google "Hypertufa" and there are a myriad of ideas on these great - great planters! I plan on keeping busy this summer trying to make a few of these. You can add bits and pieces of glass, china , marbles or shells for something different too.
