Had all these stray little ferns and house plants, so felt the need to consolidate. Like the cramscaper I am, I made house plant planters - 7 of them! They are going to have to spend the rest of spring in the shed until they can come out for the summer. I honestly have no idea how these plants will react together, but time will tell, I guess. It’s an experiment like any other. The good news is that it will be a lot easier to ensure they don’t dry out too much. All those piddly little pots in not enough space drove me crazy.

Doors, portals, passages and gates of Sweden
I’m sure that somewhere, photographic essays – yes, probably entire books, have been assembled on doors and their similes. After all, for being such a simple, utilitarian building element, they are ascribed huge symbolic importance; hope, opening, opportunity, passage, transition from … Continue reading
