I’m planning on doing some gardening this summer.
We’ve become caretakers of our family property – WOW cheap rent if you don’t count the endless hours trying to keep it up. Our main project this spring is getting the lawn back and saving the trees that the Florda freeze didn’t kill. The gift cards would help buy fertilizer.
Thanks!
We are working on Spring Cleaning over here. We’ve got to get rid of some stuff!
I am a facebook follower, which is actually where I first spotted this post :).
In our group of friends, we are known as the DIY couple! I am pregnant with my first child, so we just finished doing wainscoating in the baby’s room along with tons of painting and adding new molding. Now that the weather is turning nice, we are moving to the outside – new shrubbery along the front, painting our shutters, and on and on!
I am hoping to start planting my vegetable garden this week.
We will be working on planting flowers, bushes and trees around our house. We live in a new neighborhood and our house doesn’t have any flowers or trees.
Making some crafts… maybe some do it yourself candlesticks!
Spring Projects?? Where do I start? Plants, new front door, painting the dining room.

I am planting roses in my front garden, with a little hep from my boys:)
I’d like to finally start a vegetable garden in the backyard!
We are finishing remodeling an in-law suite into a master bedroom and all the other that go with it. We are currently putting a closet in our daughter’s room and a linen closet in the bathroom, woo hoo! This $50 would help! 🙂
We moved into our first house last summer, so there are many small projects we would like to do around the house.
