Bataatti on lämpimien maiden kasvi, mutta sen viljely voi onnistua myös Suomessa. Kasvatus aloitetaan lopputalvesta idättämällä kaupan bataatteja.

It’s been so cool here in southeastern Pennsylvania that, in some ways, it feels like this should be a September Bloom Day, rather than August. On the other hand, the lack of heat has slowed …

It's November. Time to eat! Oops I better back up, it's November time to give thanks! Today I have a few November-y projects to share. First up is my Give Thanks board. I used the same frame for the Give Thanks board that I had used for the 49er's board, that I made back in Feb. of 2013. Actually I used it at a bridal shower this past summer too. The sign was cute but the quality of the photograph was lousy! So as you can see I have made good use of this baby. Just a few coats of acrylic craft paint and I have a new frame to play with! It makes a cute prop at a gathering. Originally I was looking for a short thanksgiving phrase to use. And a BIG graphic. Then I came across this ditty from Ralph Waldo Emerson. Of course it was perfect, and a bit longer than I had planned on. I had intended on stenciling my short phrase and BIG graphic with white paint to get a cool chalkboard art look. Like I did for the 49er sign above. Ugh I didn't want to cut a long phrase stencil and I didn't want to stencil a loooong phrase. Gee do I sound ungrateful or what??? So my first solution was the easy solution. Let's just print the phrase... Here was my clever idea..... This did not work for me. Sometimes my cleverness just doesn't translate to paper... It might make a nice card though. I So I knew to get the look I wanted, I was either stenciling or cutting vinyl letters with my Silhouette Cameo. Out came the vinyl... It did take a whole afternoon to do the board. Trying to line everything up can drive you crazy! My other project is this cute pumpkin below. I decided to add some MacKenzie - Childs flair to this rusty old girl. Black and white checks dress up just about anything! Add a bit of gold and you're done! I just did my usual MO, I painted the pumpkin white. Then I marked off where I wanted the black squares and painted them black. Then I painted the stem and leaf gold. I used acrylic paint from the craft store on the pumpkin and frame. I basically did the same thing with the frame. I painted the frame white over the red I had painted it for the 49er's board. It took about three coats. It's best to let the paint dry completely between coats. Then I brushed watered down black paint all over the frame. Then I wiped the black off with a wet paper towel. Then I did the same thing with watered down or thinned brown paint. I think I painted the black on twice to get the look I wanted. It's hit or miss with me and crafting. I like the white washed look of the frame. It looks good with the chalkboard background. Which isn't really a chalkboard, it's black poster board. I rubbed some chalk on the poster board to give it a "seasoned" look. Then I just stuck the vinyl letters on the poster board. Is it time to eat yet? I think I've earned a piece of pumpkin pie. Today I give thanks that you stopped by to visit! I appreciate your time! Click here to see the SF 49er board post. I am totally ready to make a Green Bay Packers chalkboard next!

Joskus vuosia sitten en juurikaan pitänyt ruusuista. Pikkuhiljaa ihastuin perinteisiin pensasruusuihin, ja kuinka upeita ne ovatkaan! Kestäviä ja perusterveitä, siis juurikin hyviä mökkipuutarhaan :) Haluaisin niitä hurjan paljon! Kovin montaa ruusua minulla ei kuitenkaan ole, pikkuhiljaa niitä olen hankkinut. Tilaahan ne tarvitsevat ja tuppaavat tekemään juurivesoja, joten rajallisuuden mukaan niitä ehkä saa sinne mahtumaan vielä muutaman. Tällä kertaa postaus ihanasta suviruususta, joka alkaa kukkimaan noin viikkoa myöhemmin kuin juhannusruusu. Seuraavana puutarhassa kukintavuorossa on Teresanruusu, kovasti siinä on nuppuja nyt. Katsotaan josko muistan postata siitä sitten;) Mukavaa suvea kaikille! Tervetuloa mökkipuutarhaan lukijaksi Koti Vainiolla!

Niet alleen een doorbraak wat kleur betreft bij deze Campanula (Kluwenklokje), maar ook de nette groeiwijze en de afwezigheid van woekerneigingen maken het tot een eersteklas plant. Bloeit met dichte trossen (kluwens) van zachtroze bloemen die ontluiken uit donker lila roze knoppen. Zo ontstaat een prettig tweekleurig effect.
