Let's pretend I said something profound...
I identify as a Kakapo.
Sarcasm is difficult to express in writing.
There is a vast difference between what you need and what you want...you need a roof over your head, you don't need a mansion.
I'm old...

There's not
much crafting here other than repurposing...
It's a Halloween decoration - a black metal pumpkin that holds tea lights.
I used a saucer and a small bowl for the seed.
They hop around the rings that hold the tea light cups.
Easy to return to its original purpose.

Is this normal for a lemon tree? The bottom leaves are falling off. I have a moisture gauge but I don't know if there's more going on than a watering issue. I do have two lemons growing but still green.

I tried the fancy thing...um just no...
Buuuut I did experiment with a number of other patterns! You had a great idea!
This is the bottom right corner, upside down because I'm a lefty.
Note the hi tech way I kept the fabric tight...perhaps I should patent it...🤣🤣

I thought I'd share my hi tech way to deal with having to do edges...
TL:DR My outside preprinted line was gradually off by 1 full stitch from top to bottom. Decided I didn't like the pattern and did my own thing. Decided to see what different borders looked like to cover it up...

I suggest everyone follow this lady and the site on Facebook...
She showed the entire process for three colors, but the rest of her work is...stunning.

As per my adult response, I decided I would make my own design regardless of the menu theme...
Note: No, it has not been washed or pressed.
If you think certain ones are less than "pretty", "great" or "well done", then it was an elf fired by the shoemaker who did it.

So...I bought this cross stitch kit...
The outline of the edges was printed in black.
I lined up the edges of said outline and found the center.
Counted from side and top, marked my 10.
Counted, stitched, 🤔, frogged.
Repeat.

Sigh.

I need some help please.
What is this?
I almost killed it by overwatering...I live west of Las Vegas and thought any plant subjected to 110°+ every day for months might need a little water every day 😬...I was incorrect. Q. Can it survive below freezing. Wrapped in insulated curtain, no 🍌.
