I love cooking with herbs and even more growing our own food to eat, but our backyard right now is cramped with of all kinds of botanical species. I figured I could work my way around that by making a vertical garden of comestibles, so I’m pegging this one below by Nest In Style. 

I like this better than most other wall/vertical garden designs that use up pots and anchors - those still look cluttered to me even when hung. Plus, I really want to use up what we have here and all our pots/cans already have plants/contain something else.

Bamboo could be a substitute for the gutter container and hemp rope for the steel, but that really depends on what I could salvage from anywhere. That reminds me - I do have steel cord hanging around so I’ll probably use that up. I’m making this (one of) my August projects.

Was hanging out on Etsy (see how interesting my life is, atm) a few minutes ago and came across these.

Eric above is a graphic designer, combs his beard and collects vintage chairs (and apparently improved on his appearance and developed a friendlier blank face). ”Take him anywhere with you for moral support. Lend him to a friend in need of a bearded companion. All the best bits about a manfriend in a pocket-sized format for portability.”

They’re so random and hilarious somehow, I want to give the artist a high five!
