Do you enjoy feeding the squirrels that come into your garden? If you do you will love seeing these ten very unusual Squirrel feeders that give you a little bit of fun to watch, but more importantly, they still do the job of feeding the Squirrels. So let’s grab our nuts and feel that wildlife…
It’s that time of the year when the lawn mower is going away in the shed until next year. But I’ve started to wonder if I should get rid of my old mower and get one of these more unusual ones instead…
While most people will think about making a cinder block planter (Like those in my post: Top 10 Cinder Block Planters) there are many other things you can make with them. So I thought I would bring you ten of the very best ideas…
One thing I love to see is a summer flower in full bloom. From a single plant to a whole field of them, they never fail to make me smile. But the flowers I am about to show you should make your jar drop. These are the flower floats of the Bloemencorso Zundert floral parade…
Watching my next door neighbour paint his fence I realised that my own one needs a little sprucing up as well. After all, you have to keep up with the neighbours! But I want something a little more than a plain wooden fence, I want something that is creative, amazing and unusual. Something like this lot…

Well, it seems there are quite a lot of options, but I …
Do you have an old tree stump in the garden? If you do you might want to check out these ten ideas for using them. Some do require a lot of work, but they are all amazing ideas that can turn any boring tree stump into something much more amazing…
The first ever film I went to see in the Cinema was “Herbie Goes Bananas” way back in 1980 (yes, I really am that old and I was 5 when I watched that!) Anyway my point is that I understand some people’s fondness over their VW Beetles. Some people still drive them, some still race them and there are even …
I have always wondered if birds really do like bread or if they are just grateful for what they get?!? Well, maybe it doesn’t matter what they eat, but more where they eat it. After all, a feeder ball hanging in a tree is a much safer and better place for birds to eat than food just thrown down on the garden! …
This might just be me, but as a kid, I hated just one single thing more than the dentist, and that was shopping for school shoes! Boring shops, full of boring shoes, with boring people fitting them, and boring conversions about why that shoe I was trying on isn’t “quite right for him” boring, boring, boring. And to be honest, …
I am going to admit to something here that not a lot of people know: “I HATE GARDENING!” I love the look of a nice garden, but hate doing it. For several years now I have paid my elderly neighbour in beer to cut the grass every few weeks because I hate doing that much! But something I do love looking at and …
