Remember the Seed and Grow planters I painted on the last day of 30 Days of Creativity? Well, they used to be a very old and forgotten bookshelf  we had in the corner of our backyard not being used. Until this Spring, when we realized we could re-purpose the wood and make planters out of them. It was actually Michael’s idea, and he built them in a sunny afternoon.

Of course, Juancho and Paloma had to help him too.

We planted some tomatoes plants.

I painted them later with some left over paint we had from when we painted the kitchen and bedroom, and they look so much nicer!

I can’t wait to start eating our tomatoes and veggies!

I craft all night and party everyday at these Craft Parties.

Before and After: Seed and Grow Planters – 30 Days of Creativity, Day 30

Last one! Last project of 30 Days of Creativity. I am so happy I made it! And also a bit sad that it is over.

Last month Michael repurposed an old and tired bookshelf into two planters for his tomatoes and veggies (I will post about the process soon).

Because they were too plain, I painted them with the words Grow and Seed on them.

I think it is the perfect message for the last project of 30 Days. Seed and Grow… everything you want in your life.

Chin Chin for a completed 30 Days of Creativity!
