Make your own kind of music with terra cotta pots
Last week , some of you asked about the terra cotta weed hang on my patio .
I love your theme of turning them into lights , and I may do so yet . in reality , in good order now they are musical Mary Jane ! With their dissimilar sizes , you could create the most amazing audio . ( The other recital - wrapped drum joint had an “ accident . ” Will interchange . )
Anyway , it all start up when we taped Mundi ’s cellist , Carolyn Hagler , in her former garden . Since it was inspired by medicine , Mundi do their Sung “ Clippers ” from Apple Howling . This short clip is bond to inspire your own “ garden implement ” medicine !
I ’ll never be able to play my stool like Mario Gonzalez , or clip my limiter like Ric Furley . But even if I ’m not in the same musical class with them , Darrel , Carolyn , and Bruce Colson on violin , I can surely have some playfulness with my pots ! Oh , I want to move the chime back nearer since I can really rock out with them , too . Until then , the spring adds its own percussion section . The toad chime in with lyrics .
Go for it , creative ones !
Often , people ask where I get my musical theme for CTG . Mainly , from viewer doubt . At greenhouse , I jot notes of what people are ask . I troll the blogs to see what stumps gardener or what interests them . Of course , I tie to as many garden consequence as possible , like the Austin Cactus & Succulent SocietyShow & Sale on Labor Day weekend and theGarden Conservancy Open Days toursthis tumble in Austin and San Antonio .
On September 11 , meet the next generation of gardeners at Casis Elementary and get started with your fall garden with the organic kinfolk atGreen Gate Farms .
On September 18 , getPam Penick’shands - on tips and encouragement for DIY projects on a garden budget .
This fall , also find out how to get past troublesome rose , lionise Native Plant Week , and flock more !
In Darrel ’s case , I ran into him at HEB one Saturday and he said he knew a mythical garden to tape ! Works for me .
Here ’s my family base at KLRU .
The estimator and monitors on the left are where I edit . You will flip out over this Hutto garden on screen ! The other electronic computer is for everything else .
My third computer is on my patio , where I write the garden scripts , plan shows , suffice viewer motion and pen this blog this very second . Hey , you ca n’t pen about gardens if you ’re not in one . And when I get stuck for a judgment of conviction , I play my locoweed !
Until next week , Linda
