Bringing The Green Into Your Home

One of my all time favorite projects was adding flower boxes to my master bedroom windows! I needed green so bad that winter because winter would simply NOT END. Seeing those growing happy plants every morning (even knowing it was cold and miserable and snowy outside) really helped me a lot. Since then I’ve added countless plants throughout the house, even had to add a plant table to the entryway because I ended up with too many! But, really, I don’t think “too many” is possible!
