Friday Favorites Linky Party 380
It's raining.
It's pouring.
The old man is snoring. (I don't see how with Lacey barking at thunder all. day. long.)
So we woke him up and said it is more fun to DIY, craft, and cook recipes and share them on line with all of your friends while you have electricity to use the computer than let him bump his head, go back to bed, and not wake up until morning which is a terrible way to deal with a rainy day. Who writes these old nursery rhyme anyway?

Quick and Easy DIY Wood Shower Floor Tile
I absolutely adore high end teak in a bathroom, especially the trend of using it for a shower floor. It is warm, it has texture, and not to mention wood is more eco friendly than the vinyl shower pan that came with my house.
On the flip eco side, keeping the current shower floor during our bathroom remodel to be is uses less new resources than ripping it out and replacing it with a new shower pan and wood shower tile just for looks sake.
Fortunately the solution was a quick, easy, and split the eco friendly middle IKEA hack away – install removable outdoor wood deck tile over the current the shower floor.

Easy Zero Waste Summer Food Options and Friday Favorites Linky Party 379
Husband took time off to play over the long Independence Day weekend. Naturally part of that was taking in a local Fourth of July parade with Lacey in a way that was as convenient as was it Zero Waste.
We can't eat out when Lacey is with us because Ohio law prohibits dogs on the outdoor restaurant patios we used to patronized when we were waiting for the parade to start. It is way more convenient to bring our own and impromptu picnic.
Pin this idea for later!

It was super simple to pop some snacks in containers and a few reusable water bottled from the fridge into the bottle holder in our backpack picnic cooler (aff links to the best family Christmas present ever!) and set up Parade Central. Even Lacey goes low waste with a sweet insulated double tiffin we just used as a water bowl since Lacey ate before we hit the road.
A Chinese parasol for shade, cloth fan for the heat, and mineral sunscreen for the sun and we were good to go! A green life doesn't have to be full of angst and woe unless you want it to be.

How to a Make Tomato Cage Plant Stand
This year’s Tabasco and Habanero pepper plants aren’t doing as well as they could planted discretely in our front flower bed as they could on the sunny backyard patio. They only way to do that is to eek out space for two more plants on my small patio container garden with four plant stands.
Which was a fantastic excuse to check out our new IKEA store! I saw a self watering planter and stand on the IKEA website that would do the job nicely.
Until I got to the store and an associate told me they were discontinued. *sad face*
No worries! I swung by Home Depot on my way home to buy tomatoes cages to make into a quick and easy modern plant stand.
