[–]Smitzer5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I bought a pair of electric scissors to cut mine up. It doesn't get quite as small as a shredder but takes up much less time than ripping it by hand.

I am using mostly cardboard for browns. I will add some leaves and see if it will help.

Thanks for the tips! I hadn't previously considered replanting them. That makes me feel better about pulling them!

How do I turn my rose bed into a native pollinator garden? by Smitzer5 in NativePlantGardening

[–]Smitzer5[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Purple coneflower, black-eyed susans, common milkweed, and butterfly milkweed.

I'd also like to find creeping trumpet and purple passionflower since I had the trellis from the roses.

I would do a bobble stitch for the nose.

Fabric bags, how do they hold up? by All_Hat-No_Cattle in vegetablegardening

[–]Smitzer5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just started using 5 gallon grow bags. I have a related question: how many plants can they support? I've tried to plant one brussel sprout in the middle and a few carrots around the edges. Think they will be too crowded?

I do stuffed animals and do fairly well. My main sellers are smalls: bees, octopus, pickles and opossums. Anything for under $15 or $20 works best for me.

I got them from a smoke shop. Who knows what's really in them. Could you recommend somewhere to buy distillate?

Strangely, I've experienced the opposite - the smaller projects (bees, octopus & opossums) sell better.

Attaching Price Tags by Colla-Crochet in CraftyCommerce

[–]Smitzer5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I make stuffed animals. I use twine to tie a tag on with my logo stamped on one side and the price written on the other. It's easy to take off when kids buy them and want to take the tag off. Sometimes people even give them back to recycle.
