A 'Moss' Beautiful Gardening Idea
Freshly harvested Moss helped to elevate my planting vessel! |
With a little creativity, a little moss can go a long way. Have fun with it and stay tuned to see what I've planted here when it starts to peek above the soil. The moss used for this featured project, is actually remnants of another project idea, coming up soon, I'm elated with those results as well!
Recipe:
A plastic container, basket or bowl, with holes preferably
A knife or other sharp object to make small holes for draining
Fresh moss
Planting soil
Desired suitable plants for vessel
Take a few moments to carefully bore several holes in the bottom of the vessel for draining.
The design will of course vary by container, but for this one, I simply tore off pieces to plug the larger holes on the container, on all four sides. You want the pieces to fit somewhat snuggly in each of the holes.
Once desired pattern is achieved, carefully fill the vessel with potting soil.
Plant your desired seeds for your personal needs.
Enjoy the project and the bounty.

Frico Egg Art
Recipe:
Grated Sharp Cheddar Cheese or other hard cheese
Sliced boiled eggs
large nonstick saute pan

Directions:
Over medium high heat, place about 1 oz. of cheese.
Once cheese starts to melt, reduce heat to medium and arrange eggs in a pattern.
Place another scant pinch of cheese onto center of frico.
Use a spatula to help frico keep its shape around the edges.
Remove from heat and wait about 1 minute.
Invert onto plate to show design and serve or place on buttered or toasted bread.
Best,
