Garden Fun

I have been spending most of my morning off in the veggie patch, beside mowing and weeding the flower beds.
The wonderful rain we have had the past month and perfect temps makes everything grow like crazy.
MOSTLY WEEDS
Seems like I had finished the weeding and its all back, need to start all over again. 



After some weeding the beds look so good.
These two are just a couple of the beds I have. Thought I had taken more pictures but I didn't, need to take some more to share.

Here's one success that I shouldn't have to go back to.
Had this spot in the back that I haven't planted much in the past because when I would the deer would think I planted a buffet just for them. It gets depressing and costly.
I thought I would try again.
Before

After with some help from the girls
At the local store there was a clearance sale and I purchase some azaleas. Thinking it would be a good one that the deer won't like.
We'll see.

Welcome friends to share a thought, I enjoy reading them and will try my best to reply back by email most of the time. But if you do not hear back it's because you are a no-reply blogger.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...

Yarn Along 2/20/13 Spoon Pin Doily

It's snowing here and I know some of you are tired of snow but here we will take the moisture any way we can get it. Plus it just gives me a reason to stay in and work on some of my projects. In this picture I'm not sure if you can make it out but in the background there are some wild turkeys that hang around the house sometime, just  chilling This project I'm working on is Spool Pin Doilies.   I had never heard of them before until Bonnie Hunter had mentioned it on her blog . She a had a viewer send her one for her sewing machine along with a pattern. I did not like the pattern but loved the idea so I decided to make up my own version. I wanted a more simple, smaller and fuller doily. So I tried different thread sizes to get one that I like. (From left to right) I tried sock yarn, which I'll redo because I think I like that look. Heavy weight crochet thread, nope too big Bamboo yarn, I like it. Looks good on my Kenmore. Pearl c...
