What a perfect use for those old pots, especially all those aluminum ones we aren't supposed to be cooking with anymore.
1. Find a pot.
2. Give a really good clean.
3. Use rope or twine of your choice. If you want coloured twine/rope - soak it in some dye mixed with water and let dry.
4. Get your glue gun out and start to process of glueing the rope/twine to the pot.
5. Tah Dah - brand new container for your bathroom, kitchen, children's room - anyroom!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
