It may not be your traditional math equation but in my world it works perfectly!
Take ONE trailing green plant in a sad plastic pot,
Add THREE bits of crafty supplies:
a clay terracotta pot,
a jar of black craft paint
and
a spool of jute rope.
Combine them all to equal ONE bit of happy.
It perfectly fills the spot above a narrow pony (half) wall between the kitchen and living room that was in need of "something".
(Does anyone else spy the mini tootsie rolls from my husband's candy dish?)
My initial plans were to do a fancier macrame design but after seeing that the plant would cover most of it (and let's be honest my skills in this area are a bit rusty), I decided to go with a simple design.
I am happy and the plant seems to be doing well in it's new home.
You can take the girl out of the "70's but I guess you can't take the "70's out of the girl!
