Year of Making Stuff: Week 14

What with all the gardening around here and at the library, this week’s YoMS is sort of lame. I was really curious about The Big Ass Book of Crafts, so finally it came in at the library and was less than inspired. Many of the projects are creative, but the main ingredients seems to be popscicle sticks (yep) and rope. Neither of which I am interested in using. But he has some cool Day of the Dead light switchplate covers, so I thought I would give it a shot. I don’t know if it is the images I chose (I was trying to just use what I had on hand), or what, but I am feeling fairly meh about them. I probably didn’t have the right glue either, but now buying the right supplies may be moot unless I fall in love with another image.
I also spent time this weekend in the Library’s community organic veggie garden, lovingly called Monroe County BookWorm Farms. So far we have planted peas, arugula, spinach, kale, swiss chard, thyme, lemon balm, walking onions, chives, broccoli and some bok choy like veggie I can’t remember the name.
