THIS WEDNESDAY MARCH 5th, 2014 from 9pm until midnight, at Akbar, it’s CRAFTNIGHT!!!
Project: Paint a Pot, Plant a Seed
Processing Fee: $2 donation please
Drink Special: The Lyla >>> $4 of fun! (yes, that photo is of Doris Day on a steamroller)
Pardon my Garden, the rain stormed in here, whirled everything around and suddenly it’s March. The days are about to get longer, the sun shall soon return to what it was doing before it was interrupted by a ton of raindrops. That’s when I saw all the little terra cotta pots on a shelf and knew immediately what we’d be doing this week.
I have a couple of terra cotta pot sizes, I’ve got small and smaller, cute as the dickens, suitable for covering in plastic gems, googly eyes, felt scraps, yarn, you name it. The ever popular colorful acrylic paint will also be here, and remember planter sticks? Those are those thingies you stick in the dirt next to your plant so you don’t forget what you planted. They’re made out of wood, also suitable for customizing in the manner you desire.
