DIY Dried Herbs – Improving Our Lives Through Gardening

To Garden or Not to Garden, That is the Question I’ve become interested in growing my own food both out of necessity (to save money), and because our new house had a ready made fenced in garden area (out of obligation to use God’s gifts to us).

Old Watering Can Turned Decor

Porch Decor Series Here’s an old watering can that was dented and scratched up that we got at an auction as part of another lot of “junk”. Just remember, “One man’s junk is another DIYer’s treasure.”  I had Mark bang out the dents and I sanded out some of the flaking metal.
