Hi Diana, Thank you so much! No, I don't have weed blocker fabric in there. I know weeds can tend to get mixed up in clumps and that can be a nightmare. What I do is put some Roundup in a little cup and using a tiny foam paintbrush, I brush the Roundup on the individual leaves of the weeds, being careful not to drip on the semps. That way it kills them off rather than when you try to pull them out of a clump you just end up pulling the leaves off and the roots stay. It really isn't as tedious as it sounds.
Yes, I make all the hypertufa pots. Those little ones in the semp garden are made from leftover tufa from bigger projects. I actually just squish it into plastic sandwich bags! It's stuff that otherwise would get thrown out and people just love those little pots that fit in the palm of your hand. You can tuck them in anywhere. Just put a couple semps in them and they fill in in no time. Do you have pictures of your hypertufa pots? Do you put succulents in them?
I do other concrete stuff too - lots of it! I have a garden art sale at my house every June where I sell it. I live right on a highway and its been very successful. Leaves are fun to make. I use Quikwall for the leaves because I like the way it picks up the details. My other big hobby is woodworking - more of a winter hobby for me. I inherited the craft bug from my Mom!
