The project I have chosen first is more symbolic than anything
else. This is what hung at my
entranceway since shortly after Mother’s Day when I murdered my gift. This is literally and figuratively a dead
greeting. When I look at this I see a
warning: STAY AWAY; STAY FAR AWAY;
INSIDE YOU WILL NOT FIND THE HOSTESS
WITH THE MOSTEST!
This is what hung to greet my guests! |
In clearing out my clutter, I am hoping that my home will be
more of a reflection of who I believe I am and who I want the world to
see. So the first thing I did was remove
this obvious witness to my lack of TLC.
Transplanting something healthier (OK, alive) into this planter became a family event, a memory to treasure. |
The children were happy to help with this project. We removed the dead flowers and put them in
the compost bin. We then used the soil
and the planter to transplant two small houseplants that were in need of more
space. Nothing went to waste. This was a recycling project that made a
great “first impression”.
This is the finished product! It is fully decorated with rocks and butterfly clips. Now to choose a location. |
