• Bravo to the UK’s first circular construction hub, where scraps are readied to be reused.
• New Yorkers, stop into “Tiwa’s Scrapyard” next Saturday, April 4, for “ceramics, candelabras, textiles,,” and other “personal bits for sale.”

• Love Copenhagen’s tiny floating wildflower islands.
• Time to plan a craft retreat.
• And the Best Use of Signature Palette award goes to: the green in this bath.

• And really great all-around-the-house baskets (psst: they’re Ikea).
• Get ready to be utterly charmed by these Brutalist sheds (hat tip: Margot).
• Vogue says “moss is having a moment.” (For what it’s worth, Kendra wrote about the appeal of moss in this 2023 Gardenista story.)
• These woven dogwood branches will evoke the mane of a fire horse (hat tip: Julie, by way of Aya Brackett).
• Got pelargoniums? Here’s Monty Don’s advice on how to get the best summer blooms from your plant.
