Hide your garden gloves!

by Tricia

A thief is on the lose. Yep. This one specializes in stealing garden gloves.

I bet there’s a lot of gardeners in the neighborhood wondering where their other glove went.

Almost like putting socks in the dryer and discovering that some of your socks lost a mate, only this time the thief is known. It’s a mischievous cat.

Beautiful Bathroom Fixtures and accessories

by Tricia

Spring is a time of change and renewal. Time to look at the world with fresh eyes, so it’s only natural that so many of us begin to think about renovating or redecorating our homes.

As many of you know my husband and I have been renovating our home since the day we moved in six and a half years ago! It’s been a long slow process and I bet that by the time we’re finished we’ll be thinking of moving! One of the projects that we hope to complete this year is upgrading our upstairs bathroom and completely renovating our basement. Our basement also has a bathroom so that means we’ll be working on two bathrooms!

If you are in the midst of upgrading or renovating your bathroom you might want to visit Home & Stone. They have a wide selection of bathroom fixtures from which to choose.

They carry a beautiful selection of Air tubs and Whirlpools, showers, shower seats, tub and shower sets, walk in tubs, faucets, steam units and saunas, toilets and Bidets, bathroom vanities and basins.

Not only do they carry all the major bathroom fixtures that you’d need to complete a bathroom they also have a wide selection of bathroom related accessories ranging from items like towel warmers, medicine and curio cabinets to mirrors.

They’re having a weekend sale right now. If your order totals $499 or greater they’ll take 10% off! With a deal like that it’s certainly worth taking a moment to visit their online store to see if any of their items appeal to you.

Every gardener needs an outdoor sink station

by Tricia

I was browsing through gardening sites earlier today trying to get ideas for our garden and I came across this fantastic Outdoor Sink Station.

I don’t know about you, but each spring and then in early summer I spend a lot of time outdoors planting seedlings that I’ve grown indoors during the late winter and early spring months, or flats of plants that I’ve purchased from a local nursery.

Planting is messy business! Heck, even weeding or spending time putting fresh soil and compost on the garden is a dirty job.

Rather than trudge inside with dirty hands (my shoes, socks and clothing are usually well dusted too!) it would be nice to have a sink outdoors.

An outdoor sink would also come in handy when it comes time to pluck radishes, carrots, potatoes and other veggies from the soil. You could easily give them a rinse before bringing them into your kitchen.

If you use your backyard and or garden for entertaining guests – sitting outdoors barbecuing on the grill and eating outdoors it might also be handy to have a sink nearby.

What I really like about this Outdoor Sink Station is that there’s also a full size hose located at the bottom of the station. So you might end up having access to a hose closer to the garden than you did in the past. Plus the outdoor sink hose reel has a water-powered engine inside which uses water power to automatically reel-in the hose!
