    Utilize Color - consider how you use paint; if you have ‘mismatched’ planters but prefer a more clean look - paint it!

    Look for plant swaps in your area

    Plant useful! FORM AND FUNCTION

    Rosemary - fleas+ticks

    Peppermint - ants, spiders mosquitoes

    Basil - mosquitoes + house flies

    Lavender (the cadillac of plants!)- moths, fleas, flies, mosquitos

    Ground cover - natural perennial ground cover (i.e. sedum, creeping periwinkle, violets, pansies, snow glories, moss flox)

    here to remind us of the days when we couldn’t actually choose what we watched. Before the days of netflix and hulu there was “basic cable” - come come, gather round the fire while I tell you about ancient days when a television (these were like phones, tablets, and laptops only with large protrusions off the back filled with stuff that can never be thrown away)...a television... had access to approximately 3 ‘channels’ with 1 show playing non-stop. The likelihood of seeing the same episode of the same show more than once was 2,000%. Oh it was fun and it was awful all at once, but we didn’t know any different - we called them reruns - and we ate our hot dogs and mac and cheese in blissful ignorance while the 5th airing of Family Matters ‘good cop, bad cop’ episode played. Reruns - it’s what’s about to happen to you, so grab a hot dog and settle in.Reruns:
