A easy way to set up a plant shelf

[@amymihaly765]

DIY tip: If your space is too small, they will cut the board for you at the store before you leave!

[@elainechan7155]

But you still have to measure your room better 😂

[@fuzyfuzfuz2]

But that involves talking to people.... and trying to hunt someone down and waiting for 30 minutes to look for an employee who definitely does NOT want to help you because they're busy with something else.... :3

This feels like a DIY I could actually make happen 😂

It’s not really DIY…it’s just doing something. You don’t call it DIY when you put a box of Kleenex on a table…

[@littlepumpkinseed]

Well.... if you do it yourself.. it is technically DIY! It does not need to be complex!! Often, it's more creative and easy to make! But you can make it as difficult as you want! :)

So pretty 😌 I wanna have indoor plants but my cats either chew on them or use the pots as litter boxes 🤦🏻‍♀️🥺😞 any advice? Please help

[@kristaceresa4699]

Same! I have a few areas in my house where if I hang up shelves really high or hang plants from the ceiling the cats can't get to them

[@Iredd25]

I place them high with no access or grow some cat grass for them to mess with...then when you see them mess with your plants remove the cat with no interaction/stimulus (don't even talk to them) then place them near the grass for them and then praise the crap out of the cat when they're near the cat grass....it'll take time but it works...and make sure the other palnts aren't poisonous for them. Hope this helps...good luck!

[@QueenMotherTroll]

Fun fact, spider plants are non toxic to cats and dogs, according to the ASPCA. My cats love eating them. I did a lot of research with all my plants after I got my cats, they wouldn't leave my spider plant alone no matter what I did. Spider plants contain chemical compounds that are said to be related to opium. While considered non toxic, these compounds can still result in an upset stomach, vomiting, and diarrhea. For this reason, it is recommended that you keep cats away from the plants to avoid any spider plant toxicity, regardless of its mild effects. Like people, all cats are different and what affects one mildly may affect another quite differently.

@@Iredd25 thank you so much! I should try that. Question...what is cat grass? 😅 You mean like catnip?
