Two LIVING Plants

I have a plan in this house to add LIVING plants.

There is NOTHING green about my thumbs.  Every plant dies a painful death.  This is a BIG goal for me.  I like a home with real plants (some fake is pretty too) -- it's something about LIVING though.

I have 2 plants so far.  One is rosemary that I "won" at the ladies luncheon.  The other I bought -- I have no idea what it's called, but it's that basic plant everyone owns.  (As soon as our internet is up --PICTURES.)

My goal is 5 plants.

My plant goal also coincides with my decorating goal.  Blue is the main color -- mixed with tons of neutrals, but I need another color.  I'm sick of red (I've used it for too long -- great for Christmas though).  GREEN for the win.  Green = plants.  See how nicely that works out?

I really want to post pictures.

I'm also excited because I'm USING things in this house -- things with meaning to me.  Taking a page from the Marie Kondo and letting things bring me joy.  From the good dishes to rocks that I collected from my aunt's island cottage -- front and center.

One rule this time is no RUSHING to fill empty spaces.  Shelves can go undecorated until I find what's right.  I know me, if I "finish" it by filling with whatever, it will stay that way until we move again.

Up early to get ready for the painters.  Maybe my first outside run if I can be BRAVE -- first runs are hard for me.  I feel like I'm running in a reverse fish bowl.  Later gators.

P.S.  Keep my plants in your prayers -- they're going to need it.
