Thanksgiving DIY Napkin ring printables



We have so much to be thankful for this year.  

We hope you enjoy these Thanksgiving printables
Each strip has an empty space to write what you’re feeling grateful for. 
They can be used as napkins rings, tags for branches of trees, which would 
make a terrific conversation piece, or be as creative as you’d like. 
You’ll see we printed them on kraft paper to make a very thankful paper chain. 
(A fun project for the kids while dinner is preparing.)

Welcome to our home makeover: Outdoor Projects: Our Compost Bin & Our Fairy Garden

Project 1: Compost Bin



Ava and I love to garden and I wanted rich soil. My neighbor built us this compost bin. I have to be honest composting is still new to me. I am learning as I go but wanted to share the bin with you and some composting tips. I toss in my yard clippings (it is full right now!) and kitchen leftovers all veggies and fruit. The gaps between the wood slats let air circulate around the pile to keep odors at bay and ensure that wastes are breaking down; the front has a doors which makes it easy to turn the pile and remove compost when it’s ready to spread. 

There are many options for composting bins and you can even purchase one ready made for you if you do not want to build it yourself. 

This Old House has great instructions on a Compost Bin DIY or search the web for easier or cheaper options.


Tips for successful composting:
  1. Gather grass clippings and green yard waste but be sure to mix with the "brown" materials like leaves and shredded paper to add carbon. You will need both, but if you only add grass clippings your pile will compact and start to stink.
  2. Moisten dry materials as they are added.
  3. Do not compost meats or pet waste. Stick with food scraps and yard waste only.
  4. Avoid all pesticides and/or herbicide treated material.
  5. Turn your pile as much as you can. Each time you turn it will speed up the process.
  6. Add compost to your garden a few weeks before you plant. Let the compost have a chance to work into the soil. Try to mix it in and let it sit before you plant.
  7. Bugs, worms and most bugs are ok in your compost.
  8. Optional is to cover the top of compost with a tarp to keep it moist. When the material at the bottom is dark and rich in color, your compost is ready to use. This usually takes anywhere between two months to two years.
I have not used my compost yet but plan to come spring. Happy Composting! 




Project 2: Fairy Garden

Welcome to our humble Fairy Garden project. 
This project was inspired by a fairy garden door we saw on a hiking trip. 
In the middle of the forest we saw a tree with a little fairy door. 
Ava wanted to have her own fairy garden one day so for her 5th birthday we started one in our backyard.

It is very small and humble and we like it that way for now. 
We planted a few ferns and added some positive message stones. 
We will continue to add to our garden each season.

Our garden gnome traveled with us from our aunt's house in Brooklyn. 
He guards over the fairies.

Oh She Glows...Yummy Breakfast Ideas

On my quest for finding healthy and delicious breakfast recipes for my family I discovered Oh She Glows. Angela the creator of Oh She Glows is my new idol! All I have to say is amazing! Go see for yourself.


.
I had the delicious Pumpkin Gingerbread Smoothie this morning. It was amazing! Fall in a cup! I am trying the Chocolate Zucchini Muffins tomorrow hoping Ava Rose will not notice that I sneaked in veggies in these decadent muffins. The vegan Banana Foster Baked Oatmeal looks incredible. I plan on trying that one next weekend as well as the Vanilla Buckwheat Pancakes.

I found an incredible source that I needed to share with you. I hope you enjoy this site as much as I do.
