Basil To Go
This summer Kelly from the wonderful blog Make. Grow. Gather. has decided to take back summer. She’s been posting lists of summer must-haves (think build a sand castle and go night swimming), fabulous summer recipes (burrata mozzarella, roasted sungolds and basil oil, anyone?), drool-worthy giveaways (a hammock!!), and crafts. Kelly kindly asked me to put together a Lazy Summer craft project.
I was a little nervous, because Kelly has serious craft chops—she writes a crafting column for the Washington Post. But I love summer, especially lazy summers, so I decided to take a crack at transforming a wine crate into a basil box. You can see the entire step-by-step project and get more ideas for making the most of summer over on Make. Grow. Gather. My favorite project so far? Kelly’s tomato cage lantern!
What a great site. Thanks for the link. Your basil box looks great.
