Living a Joyful Life

I love the polka dots and the mix of navy blue and pink. I also love that it has an auto open and close feature. Potting Shed Creations Garden-in-a-Bag Basil Retails for: $10 I was really disappointed with this product. I would have rather had a food item that is something I could eat right out of the box.
