How to Make Your Own Rocks

On September 2, 2021September 2, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard, Uncategorized10 Comments

"Just add water!" So, if you've read "Just Add Water" (part 1) you know that it's easy to make your own cement. It comes in very handy for making cement spheres, which can then be painted and used as yard art. (Actually you don't want to know the story behind this "easy DIY" Pinterest project.) …

First let me say... I did not purchase the above plant. I took the picture merely to show the price, which you really can't see after all. But it was something like $79.99.Suffice it to say, I have my own. I actually think it originally came from Grandma Tracy's house, and it seems like it's …

As the saying goes...If you're doing mosaic sea animals on your bathroom tile, you might as well go all out! When we left off at the end of "Because I Can", this was how far I had gotten with the sea animals mosaic. At that point I wasn't sure if I wanted to go all …

Just Add Water, Part 3

On October 7, 2018May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

You remember my garden spheres, right? (If you're just joining us, you can go back and read "Just Add Water" to see these spheres in their humble beginnings.) They sat around for weeks while I tried to decide what to do with them, and finally the idea hit me! Wouldn't it be fun to make a …

Gems on the Sidewalk

On September 25, 2018May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

No, I did not say "germs" on the sidewalk, although I'm sure they are there, too... Here's a nice picture of my "whimsical" backyard, ("pre-mosaic curb", I might add, if you look closely at the back corner). In the foreground, you might also be able to see spaces between the cement areas that make up …

A Whimsical Mushroom

What could be more whimsical than mushrooms? I mean, even in real life they are whimsical, as you can see in this picture I found on http://www.pixabay.com.But they are even more whimsical if you draw them, because then you can have whimsical insects too. And if you are like Panda, you just might get stuck …

If you have read my post "Just Add Water", you have already seen my whimsical cement garden spheres. And if you have been in my backyard lately, you know that they still look exactly like this. Yep, that's right, I have done nothing to them to make them any more whimsical. That's because I was …

Thinking Inside the Box

On November 22, 2016May 10, 2021 By nanasworldwebIn House and Yard

For a cat, some people say I'm spoiled. That's because Mom is always doing stuff to make my life interesting. But she says she's also doing it to make her life interesting, because watching me really keeps her entertained. So it should not have come as any surprise to me when she came home one day …
