Spring!

Spring is finally here today though the grass is not green yet and still covered with a lot of snow!

I love to plant pots of grass for the spring and Easter season to decorate my home.

It is so easy, all you need is a a potting container,  seed starting potting soil and grass seed.
Target had this "grassology" grass seed right up front in the dollar area!


Just sprinkle some grass seed on top of your soil, add just a little more soil to cover the seed and water.
Sun for part of the day will help the grass grow.  

I started this pot just about 10 days ago and have been enjoying just this little bit of spring in my office.
