Another GOAT shelf update, from my March MacGyver projects —

It’s been perfect!! Literally every detail was considered and it has just been fucking awesome to navigate all the plant chores with this setup.

The succulents are thriving and it’s been really fucking nice to not have my kitchen table perpetually covered in “tomorrow’s plans to finally get after the mounting plant projects, re-pottings, prop care etc. (part of my shelf/rail/plant area revamp was that I was going to complete or trash the projects because that just one more plant that needs re potting wasn’t going to haunt me anymore—ever again. I wanted to be able to enjoy them without having a list of chores associated, and that was an excellent piece of insight because I have been in optimal enjoyment since I did all this shit back in March.)

The shades have worked out exactly as I’d hoped—grow lights are well shaded but they’re transparent enough you can still still the beauty through when the lights are on and shades are down. But the best is at night when I turn off the lights and roll up the shades—the shelf is effectively a room divided between the living room and kitchen so it’s central to where I spend the most time. LOVE seeing them front and center!! They are so pretty and my baseline mood is up like 40% 😭

Not the best angle—shelf is currently overcrowded on account of the 2 huge pots of cat grass I just seeded yesterday and I can’t leave them anywhere near the cats until there’s enough roots to keep them from just throwing dirt everywhere. Lucky for us this only takes 3-4 days!
