An ant crawled across my face while I was sleeping

An ant crawled across my face while I was sleeping!!! That was all the motivation I needed to deep clean under my bed.

Vacuumed. Mopped. Sprinkled a generous line of diatomaceous earth (aka microscopic barbed wire for bugs, they crawl through it and basically shred themselves). Might’ve overdone it, but I don’t play when it comes to surprise guests. Beds are invitation only.

Between NYC’s mandatory composting and this weird weather, the ants are already full, and ignoring my borax bait. So I’m being forced to take other measures.

Also, shoutout to my Malm hatchback bed, @ikeausa one of my favorite storage solutions. Did I sleep in the bed after seeing that ant? Would you? The jury’s still out.

Couldn’t find an outdoor cowhide rug, so I made

Couldn’t find an outdoor cowhide rug, so I made one! I freehanded the shape, and laid it right on my curvy little deck. I love the way cowhides break up space with soft, organic lines. It’s a simple DIY with a big payoff, and it’s totally washable.

I hunted down Chris Hansen. Not the one who would be like “have a seat” from To Catch a Predator ( I used to LOVE that show— get ‘em Chris!). I hunted down Chris Hansen the plant whisperer hybridizing the most jaw dropping groundcover color I’ve ever seen. I used all the techniques I learned from watching the other Chris Hansen, and went full stakeout mode!!! The thing is, when you’re a lazy gardener with a love for bold, low maintenance color you’ll find the source!! My days of mowing, pruning, and weeding are numbered. I wanna spend more time sipping my coffee with my feet up in my garden!!! Right!!!!???

Oh and as soon as I was ready to post this I saw that Chris and his team have debuted a new cherry red sedum. @gardensolutionsfamily check your DM’s!! 😍 I want cherry red!!!! Would this be a good collab!!!??? Tap yes or no.

Spring is here (I probably just jinxed it), and as I prep my urban garden, I can’t help but think about what I’d do differently if I started from scratch:
1. Trench the entire fence line to block rats, not just under the deck.
2. Skip softwood furniture, carpenter bees turned my picnic table into dust.
3. Those luxury seeds? Zero blooms. Total waste.
4. Wineberry bush? Gorgeous but vicious. Spreads fast and covered in thorns.
5. Mulch brought snails. They ate everything. I’d switch to black lava rock.
6. Biggest regret? Not asking for help!! I broke a stunning marble base I planned to turn into a raised flower bed.

Swipe through to see what I learned so you don’t make the same mistakes.

What’s one thing you’d redo in your outdoor space?

This community (right here👇🏾on this page, affectionately known as y’all 🫵🏾) has been the key to every step of my design journey!!

And now, because of your not-so-subtle nudge (which was exactly what I needed), the trampoline ottoman is officially patent pending!

THANK YOU!!!

I’m leaning on y’all once again as I search for the right investors and production partners to bring this to life at scale. I even applied to shark tank @sharktankabc (tag them below if you think they should jump on it!!!)

There will be twists and turns, this is my first time doing something like this, but I cannot wait to get it into your homes.

In the meantime, I’ve created a waitlist, it’s linked in my bio, and I’ll also drop it in stories to make it easy.
