We attached the 2×2 trim pieces around the edges using clamps and wood glue and then sanded them down to be rounded on the edges once everything was dry.
I love any book, blog, or other publication, where I can read it and learn something that I can put to use immediately!.Along with the book, Amy sent me some extra little goodies to get me started on some of the projects like some fabric scraps, some beet seeds, and some dried lavender.
I can’t wait to spend a nice sunny few hours out on the deck playing around with some of these projects during naptime!.Some of the projects that stood out to me as things that I definitely want to try are the Spiced Chai Sugar Hand Scrub, The DIY Coconut Oil (seriously!), and the Frozen Rosemary, Cranberry, and Beet Juice Christmas Wreath.
And then there are like a million more too.Really, this book is like an encyclopedia of naturey crafts, homemade beauty products, and recipes.
It’s a little mind-boggling.. Oh!
And there’s a section all about creating nature-inspired Christmas decorations!For this though, it was perfect..
The first time I tried to use caulking, I cut the little tip off and then couldn’t figure out why I couldn’t get it to work.Turns out there’s also a little membrane inside that you need to pierce.
There should be a little piercer sword that swings out of the bottom of your caulking gun for that.Isn’t my new bath mat neat?.
