A couple of weeks after crying on here about my partner not realising my plants should come out of the window during a heatwave, both my FLF and orchid have bounced back... And somehow this orchid that has had no flowers for years has decided to thrive with the neglect. A happy outcome!

I've spent my entire life convinced my big sister is a secret plant goddess. She does nothing to her plants and they always THRIVE no matter where she moves, it's crazy. That snake plant is over 1m tall!

The final result! I felt that Keith Haring dancing people were more the right feel :) really struggled to recreate the drawings that were on there from the previous owner so I'm still trying to think about where to put a little homage to my frugal find!

A month later, and I finished! Only thing is I've realised I can't fit my jackets over it but it's worth it for these super comfy poofy sleeves. I think it's time to think about summer patterns because these longer projects really stress me out!

URGENT! I was feeling useless about the horror happening in Aussie and not being able to help more than donating, and a friend sent this to me. If you can crochet, knit or sew, there is a need for these things! Their IG/ FB group have all the patterns.

Sauerkraut cheese toastie! Saw someone on the sub made an amazing looking toastie before I decided to try a cabbage ferment and knew it would be my first recipe with it! Not sour enough according to my partner so going to let it keep going.

Was told that being in the Blue Lagoon would destroy my hair (I'm in Iceland for Christmas!) Turns out it did wonders? So confusing! Wondering if the minerals and silica were good for my hair type as it's held the curls in place. I didn't even shampoo my hair (but have some leave in conditioner in i

Only know what some of these are, but a very generous dad has let me take cuttings of his entire garden. Time to see if any of these survive the transition to the UK!

I need advice on diffusing! This is my hair air dryed, but with winter coming I need an alternative. I've tried diffusing several times and it turns my hair completely flat with no curls and they won't even refresh in the following days.

First loaves. Trying to understand why one loaf is denser than the other and how to reduce such large holes? The dense one was bigger (right) and so I think I needed longer. Can this be salvaged at this point? Also I think I used too much starter is that why the holes are so big? Thanks!

I said at the start of my quarantine that I wanted to learn the guitar and on my walk today I saw this being given away! Serendipity! It's pretty banged up so I wanted to paint it (but keep the little girls drawings). Will this change the sound considering I'm a total beginner. Any advice?

How do you all afford new pots? I have over 10 propagating plants and at normal retail price I'll be paying £100s for pots! Penalty pic of my babies first new leaf whilst living here :) she's being a babe and pushing through another too.

At my wit's end. I've frogged this sock so much only to realise the cuff is very small. My first pair of socks and I don't know whether to just start again now that I know what I'm doing wrong (my tension is awful and there are so many small holes). Is it worth just re starting?
