Day 22: Crafty Family Fun

Today's Positivity activity: Spend time making an outdoor craft project with the family.

Do this instead of: 2 hrs of TV time.

We decided to make a project the whole family could help with and that would help give our very blah patio a lift: re-purposing old wooden pallets into a lattice planter that will block the view of our unsightly AC unit. (We got the idea from our neighbors.) This is a fun way to spend a lovely spring day, and the results will add positivity to our lives all year long.


As it turned out, we didn't get the whole project finished--we will be using twine to tie small potted plants onto the pallets eventually. But we did have time to makeover our back patio fountain, which we'd turned off months ago, into something pretty and drought friendly.
