The first project inside our house that we tackled was the entry closet. We figured we'd start small and move our way up from there. We didn't get a very good before pic, it used to have metal wire shelving in there and it wasn't very functional. The first picture is after we ripped out the shelving and filled in the holes in the wall.
Below is the finished closet! We painted the walls "Dusty Miller", it really is the same color as the plant that is light green/blue and sort of fuzzy called Dusty Miller. Dusty liked it because they share the same name. We added some shelves for our shoes and the buckets hold our gloves and hats.
We have a lot of wildlife here, this is a frog that was outside our window the other night.
And this is one of 2 bunnies that we saw in our yard near the garden! I hope they don't eat anything!
This is what our garden looks like as of late. Sadly, we have already had some losses, something (we think birds) came and plucked half of our corn out of the ground and left them there laying down. You can sort of see them if you look close on the left. Here is what we have so far: pole beans, corn, sunflowers, radish, zucchini, dill, rosemary, squash, peas, lettuce, beets, carrots, strawberries, tomatoes, cilantro, walla walla's, basil, peppers, jalapenos, and fennel. We tried to grow things that we already eat and buy from the store, we still have to plant cucumbers and pumpkins. We will see what we get food from, hopefully everything! We also have wild strawberries and green onions that grow in our yard ( and everyone else's) but we haven't tried them.
Here is a little tomato!
