The earth below

Grounding, Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Nothing soothes the mid-winter blahs like delighting in Baker’s Creek heirloom seed catalog, planning a spring garden that is just around the corner (or so I keep wanting to believe!) The earth awaits, my friends! Thanks to saving seeds from last years crop (tutorial here) I had all our standard seeds stored and ready for use for free this year, which left me some extra wiggle room to expand our garden and try out some fun new crops I’ve never tried before. I might have gone a little overboard, but I just can’t wait to get started. In …

Eco Friendly, Recycled, Fabulously Glitterized Banner tutorial

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

My house needed a little glitter to get 2012 started off on a fabulous foot. And I mean, who couldn’t use a little more glitter in their life? How can you really go wrong with something so superfluous and happy, I ask you???? I created this banner with my daughter, and it was really fun. It’s perfect for all ages, a great project to do with the kids or on your own! My daughter and I chose to create a banner that reads: “Seek Magic” for a fun reason. My daughter’s initials are “CEK” = Seek My son’s initials …

Eco-friendly Christmas Tree Craft Tutorial, or… how to distract your kids while you get some stuff done around the house this holiday season

Organic Lifestyle, Positive Parenting / By Laura Koniver, MD

I can barely call this a tutorial because it is just gluing paper on a cone shape, but that is the genius of this sweet little craft. I first showed this post last Christmas, and as we pulled these trees out from storage this year my daughter begged to make more. So see? Even though it is soooo easy and barely requires five minutes of adult set up/supervision, it is something your kids will love, enjoy, and be proud of years later. If you need to get some stuff done around the house and need an easy distraction for the …

Firestarter Tutorial

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Temps are dipping into the cold near-freezing numbers at night here in SC, and instead of turning on my heat, we’ve been having lovely evening fires to heat the house. So that means, starting a fire. Which can sometimes be frustrating, but not so when you have a fabbo, eco-friendly, completely free, made from stuff lying around your home fire starter on hand! I originally published this tutorial last May, and I’ve been using my firestarters like crazy. So I thought this would be the perfect time to re-post… enjoy!!! xoxo, Laura Ready to get started? Here …

Gazing balls for your gorgeous fall yard… craft tutorial

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

“Gazing Balls” just doesn’t sound right, does it? I mean, I have a spam filter and all, but dang. Gazing balls? I almost wrote “Glitter Balls” but oh my goodness that’s worse. So “Gazing Balls” it is. Overlook the name. Ahem. Because this craft is a really fun and simple one to do outside with your children this fall. Everyone loves the cooler weather and the bright, vibrant colors that fall brings, right? Why not capitalize on all this fall freshness and add some sparkle to your fading garden beds, getting them beautiful for the darker, colder winter months ahead. …

Tutorial: Creepy Dismembered Hand

Uncategorized / By Laura Koniver, MD

I made up a fun craft that I really enjoyed doing with my daughter, and I wanted to share it with you all! I was trying to think of a fun Halloween project that I could do inexpensively but high impact… being a physician I guess coming up with a craft that uses exam gloves and casting plaster just makes sense! But all of these things are very easy and inexpensive to get… you can get rolls of gauze that are saturated with plaster here for about $6 a roll. You only need one roll per …

Saving Summers Seeds (say that three times fast!)

Organic Lifestyle / By Laura Koniver, MD

Remember my tutorial, back in June, about allowing some of your garden fruits and veggies to go to seed and how to harvest and save them for replanting? If enjoy gardening, you’ll take twice as much pride and twice as much pleasure in planting seeds that you’ve saved from your own garden. Propagating your own garden from your own seeds means you have basically a free garden, assuming you use your own compost for fertilizer. That’s my goal… add one or two new crops to the mix each year, but re-grow my old faves from the previous year’s seed. So …
