Week 1
Week 1
Setting Up
Let's begin our first week by gathering some simple supplies that might be helpful as we search for spring. You won't need to go out and buy anything, just use items you have around the house.
Look around for an old shoebox, packing box, basket, bag, bin or a large bowl. This will be a good place to keep your items together.
Decide if your container can stay out on display or if it needs to be put away between use.
Fill the Bin: These are a few items you might find helpful to start your bin.
Start with a pencil, some paper, a ruler, and a pair of scissors.
