Does anyone know the name of the little flowers in the vase next to the plant? I have some dried ones in my house but would love to plant fresh ones!


Adding Happiness at Home with Houseplants

Being a bit touchy about the style and function of pet products, I have resorted to using a tabletop fountain for my 2 kitties' water. I use my filtered water jug to refill. I currently have this version, which is pretty good for 2 kitties for a day: http://www.kineticfountains.com/feng-shui-ceramic-fountain-white.asp They drink from both the bowl and the top.
I have just "upgraded" to this one http://www.kineticfountains.com/feng-shui-white-bowl-tabletop-fountains.asp which will ensure plenty of water. Instead of those tacky fake flowers in the picture, I am using that container for fresh wheatgrass!
It might not be high-end, but nestled inconspicuouly near a larger houseplant, it's not bad....

i am so relieved i'm not the only one!
i have a bookshelf dedicated to my magazines, sorted by the publication, and i do like how organized they are...

that being said, it really is time to let go (myself included). i will tackle this project soon. this is my game-plan: keep intact any magazine that is "special" (premiere editions, collectable covers); the rest will be put torn apart and chosen pages kept as mood-books (binders) for inspiration in plastic sleeves, and the rest of what's left recycled or donated. perhaps the contents of the sleeves can be scanned and kept digitally in the future....

as someone who loves fashion magazines, the justification for keeping the entire thing was always because the ads were just as beautiful, but you know, when you have every month's issue, you'll see the same ads again... that alone would cut down on the bulk!
