If you’re reading this cause you’re feeling icky right now then get well soon!.
Side tables, chairs, plant pots.. -Rounding up a few balls or sandbox toys that are still outside.. -Bringing in the tomato cages.. -Sweeping down spider webs around doorways.. -Sweeping the front steps.. -Planting a handful of Spring bulbs.. -Putting down a few sheets of newspaper and some mulch to prevent weeds in flower beds (just a little at a time again!).Individually, all these little jobs are pretty insignificant, but if I pick seven of them to do in a week, then I find I’ve actually made some pretty good progress!.
Getting outside a bit more is helping me enjoy my surroundings more too.Can you spot the tiny purple flowers whose name I forget, but who I planted this Spring and who decided to bloom again in the Fall for some reason?.I love knowing that this whole area is going to be just full of daffodils in March and April and I didn’t agonize over trying to plants hundreds of bulbs like last year and then just not get around to it.
15 minutes was all it took!If I decide to, I may even do one more 15 minute bulb planting session, but no 3 hour planting marathons for me..
So there you go.
That’s what’s working for me right now.We didn’t though because honestly, at this point, as long as it works we’re happy!.
Hope you found this helpful if you have a large opening you need to block off!OK, I have to be honest here.When Staples contacted me to see if I wanted to be a part of this challenge to create beautiful holiday decor hacks using products from their stores for their #HandmadeHolidays promotion, I was a little nervous.
I mean, I guess I’m creative and all but I’m not really.I wanted to give it a shot though and see if I could do it, just for fun.
