Using a yellow rain boot to bring joy to any Home This is a simple DIY Spring craft using fresh flowers, a plunger and twinkle lights.
The last garden post overlooked some moments and photos so I’m backtracking a bit. I planted these Forget Me Nots years ago and they’ve always done okay but this year one of the plants …
Their selfies and group photos didn't turn out as planned, and the results were too funny
It 's been so long since I have posted... I almost forgot how to upload photos! We have been super busy with design projects and yard work that sometimes blogging gets put at the bottom of the list We are finally going to tackle the chicken coop and garden shed project. I have been collecting photos for quite a while and I like so many different coops it's hard to pick a favorite. People have gotten so creative with this urban chicken craze, that I'm glad I have waited to build a coop, because there are so many great designs out there Most coops follow a pretty standard design formula... the chickens need a coop to nest and lay eggs they need a place to scratch and feed and a spot to hang out and perch they need fresh air and sunshine but need protection from critters that like to have chicken for dinner and they need to be warm in really cold weather We have decided to use cedar siding and redwood for the coop and some old windows and doors we have saved from our remodeling projects. The roof will be galvanized metal which will be good because the coop will be located under some big oak trees. Here is our chosen spot...across the creek What i like about this spot is it has filtered sunlight... It is easily accessible from the vegetable garden and I will be adding another compost bin adjacent to the coop to toss in chicken poop Next door to the coop will be a new garden shed for storing all of our "stuff" like mowers, fertilizers, clippers, hoses etc This is a big open area between the two bridges which has a great view of the yard We are going to build the coop first and get the design right so we can repeat some of the same elements in the shed Here are some great coops... Heather Bullard built this one and I purchased the plans from her....It is so cute! this little gem I saw on Pinterest what a great door and window I not sure who's coop this is but it is wonderful I think using the up-cycled material really adds to the charm This one I found on backyardchickens.com Another great coop with clearstory windows I love the white trim This is a modern looking coop which is really cool painted black and has little candle lanterns...very nice don't you think ? I like the idea of painting the trim a color maybe green or black or white...maybe even red! If you have a coop or a chicken story I'd love to hear your advice! In the mean time I'm clucking along....and so happy fall is finally here smiles ~Kelley~

Forgot to Plant Those Spring Bulbs? It's Not Too Late! But you better not delay! If you have a bunch of bulbs that you never got around to planting in the ground, you can still try a forcing method. T
Umm… I had a brief lapse in judgement and forgot calling people “Karens” is unkind. But then I didn’t want to change it, because that means filming this whole video over again… and well, if I do that...

Somehow, this year, I ended up planting winter garlic instead of fall garlic. Join me on my big experiment of planting garlic in zone 5a, in January.
