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.

Countdown to Autumn. 18 days

  After some thought I came up with a general "get to" list for a pre - Autumn preparation. I had mentioned a couple in the last post. I will keep those and have added a few more. I needed to remind myself that a lot of my ideas are a little premature hance the pre autumn and will be better done next month. So here is what I came up with... Deep cleaning is still on Planning activity for next month Decorating inside and out.   Making a fall outfit, sewing and knitting Find some new recipes to try Make a pair of fall or Halloween socks I will be focus on journaling with Autumn being the present subject.  Making sourdough bread again This one I have already started, Watching a cozy, feel good show. So "the man of the place" and are rewatching PBS All Creatures Great and Small. In a matter of a couple days we have watched season 1.

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        ...
