I wonder what my neighbors would think if they woke up one morning and found all these pop bottles attached to the cyclone fence between our properties...
Trish said:Yes, that's what I was trying (unsuccessfully, I guess) to say above. I totally agree with you.
I've become really critical of pictures and ideas lately. Seeing things on pinterest and magazines will a whole new eye...Too many things are really just set up for pictures and articles and big business, . While pretty and artistic, they are not at all practical for real use and gardening. The soda bottle wall for example: perhaps not as "cool", and likely wouldn't gain as much attention, but there are many many more ways to make it more functional so that it really could be used to feed people. Which to me, is what I like to see promoted and taught- reality.
Ok- I'm going to (try to get) off my soapbox now.
