Yard Waste Booty

Botanical booty is weaving treasures that come mostly from yard waste; palm frond cuttings, seed pod branches(inflorescences), grasses, vines, and leaf sheaths.

Some of the tresures come from rummaging through seaweed waste and things that wash ashore, such as seeds, shells, egg cases and driftwood.

I feel like a treasure hunter when I go on the search. I carry a small hand saw and extra sharp clippers along with a backpack for the booty.

  1. Way to go, Eve! I wish I could join you. Florida is a treasure trove of yard waste.. tossed away by some, prized by others!
