So many projects, so little time. Why waste any getting dressed?

I have so many projects going I should add plate spinning to the list. I work on one idea which leads to research and the discovery of other ideas and so on and so on and so on. Here's what I have cooking these days ( and it's rarely DINNER.)

1. Making herbal tea which led to packaging the tea which led to making tea bags. I found these cuties on Bonzai Aprodite. The instructions call for embroidering floss but since my first career as an insurance liability underwriter ( laugh, go ahead) only exacerbated my pre-existing OCD, so I spent hours trying to find food safe thread. There is a company in the UK that makes tea bag thread (of course there is) but since I couldn't figure out where to purchase it, I'm going to dye butcher twine with food coloring.

2. Since I started planting my little succulents I decided to start a small plantation on the back porch. While reading about succulents, I discovered Hypertufa pots. I can never remember the name 'hypertufa' because 'turducken' has claimed some kind of linguistic space in my consciousness and I end up calling it 'turfutti.' Sadly, photo below is from Lowe's not my porch. 

Here's my porch.   Here is my succulent nursery, though it is too close to the first day of school for me to know all of their names. I inked the little apothecary jars.

3. As long as I have the concrete to make turfutti pots, why not make these cool concrete pendants from fall for DIY?

4.Zuzu and I are catching up on my recycling:And I continue to deconstruct knives into jewelry and now wall hangings,

 

 and figure out how to resin and attach hangers to my alcohol ink projects.This all explains why it's is almost 4 pm and I am still in my pajamas. Got to go plant the tomato plants I picked up while assembling the hypertufa materials. Then I think I'll brew myself some herbal tea and take a nap.
