Messy Messy Fail - Truly, I would love to post on time one of these days. Next week's party is my day lol. Doubtful.Tidy Victory - My indoor houseplants are looking incredible right now, and I really have my homemade fertilizer to thank. Whenever I use either a banana, eggs or coffee, I put the leftovers into a mason jar, fill the rest of the jar with water and let it sit for a couple days. Then I pour the fertilizer water that was created out of the jar into a watering can, fill the rest of that watering can with water and use that to water my plants. Nearly all houseplants love the potassium from banana peels, iron from the egg shells or acidity from the leftover coffee. So why pay for fertilizer from the store when you can just use your own?
Happiness Is Homemade Link Party #467
Welcome to Happiness is Homemade! This is Niki from over at Life as a LEO Wife, back again this week to choose the features for the month of February. I always have a difficult time choosing from all of the great posts that all of you share here on the party. Keep those spring and St. Patrick's Day ideas coming!
Mardi Gras is Tuesday, and no matter where you live you need a king cake to celebrate! This recipe from Cindy's Online Recipe Box looks delicious, and you can make either a cinnamon king cake or a cherry cheese one with it. My favorite is the cream cheese filling, but luckily, I can run out and get one from local stores who get them from this delicious place in our area because I am not a talented baker!
With Valentine's Day behind us, it's time to move on to St. Patrick's Day and spring decor. Mary Jo over at Master"pieces" of My Life has a ton of great ideas to help you incorporate green decor into your home for St. Patrick's Day, including beautiful tablescapes, vignettes, and DIY decorations.
The ladies over at Building Our Hive made this adorable fabric banner for St. Patrick's Day. It looks so easy to put together. If you're not a sewer, you could use fabric glue or even hot glue.
Beth from Creatively Beth made this adorable pot of gold under a rainbow using Dollar Tree cauldrons. They would make adorable little gifts for your child's classroom this St. Patrick's Day.
Speaking of classrooms, Julie from Sum of Their Stories made an adorable crocheted pencil case using granny squares. I have a ton of granny squares I made back in my teen years that would be great for this. The squares are quick and easy to make so they're perfect for new crocheters.
On to the Party!
