good morning....

wanted to show you guys a lil prezie i just made for my friend Gabby. going to have tea with her in a minute and thought i'd bring her a lil something.  i did this with a tin can, washi tape, some soil, a baby from my spider plant and a hammer and a nail.

first off, i sort of have a love hate relationship with spider plants. they're kinda meh but produce these cute baby plants that literally fall off when they are ready to become grown ups and venture out alone into the world. so, i put them in a tiny vase (a mason jar) until they grow some roots and then pop them into tin cans i gussy up for thank you gifts and plant sales at my sons school. here's a photo DIY that is pretty self explanatory. enjoy....

That is *so* effin cute. I am also reexamining my relationship with spider plants ~ and the scales are tipping in their favor.
After this cuteness, they are officially getting a clear yes!
Come to me you precious green spider babies ~ I'm going to copy ms starfish and create adorably personalized homes for you!

Oh Lara!!! How happy you've made me! They are a bit addictive! Rosemary roots and transplants great for these as well!
