Sabrina- A Little Princess

It was a very nice evening for 

"trick or treating". 

The weather was mild.

 A lot of children with beautiful costumes. 

Suzanne and Martin went out 

with the children and their

 friends down the street.

I stayed home costumed as a 

pumpkin and gave out the treats. 

We closed the door after approx. 115

 treats were passed out. 

The highlight of the evening was

 a visit to the Haunted House close by.

A beautiful evening enjoyed by all.. ..

Thanks for your visit.

We have a strong smell of Cat Urine

 in our flower bed.

I made a natural cat repellent with 

citrus fruit and used this as a deterrent.

.
















I cut up 

Orange peelings and spread them on the flower beds.


Lets hope this works !!

Japanese Maple Tree

Japanese maple 

a beautiful decorative tree 

that stands out in any landscape. 

 Foliage colour changes with the season, 

and many are especially spectacular 

in the autumn. 

Japanese Maples will grow well 

in any soil type, 

and  colours will be darker in higher 
light conditions and grows 
best if protected from windy conditions.

This is a Japanese Maple Bonsai tree

Pinecone Crafts

My Granddaughter,

Sabrina painted these pinecones

Acrylic Craft Paint 

Water based paint makes

 cleaning up easy 

with soap and water.

My sister Annie made this Christmas Bell.

She painted the pinecones silver and red.

She cut a bell pattern from cardboard

 and glued the pinecones to it

 with a glue gun. 

She added glitter and shiny decorations.

Thanks for your visit.

Halloween Crafts

Halloween Haunted Houses,

 Sabrina and Mathieu each decorated one....

This is a simple craft for young children.

 I cut out the house using craft foam paper.

 Glued yellow paper behind to give a window effect

 (hung in a window to have light through it,) 

 and the kids decorated it with stickers, 

acorn tops  and ornaments

BOO 👀👀👀

Halloween Trees:

These trees are a simple craft

 for young children. 
I cut the trees out of craft foam 

and the children were 
happy to decorated them 

with small stickers, 

and ornaments...

Thanks for your visit.

Nasturtiums

Nasturtiums are annual flowers. 

They are hardy for my region

 in Eastern Quebec. 

They were my Mom's favorite,

 She planted them each year.

Towards the Fall, the flowers turn to seeds.

The seeds can be dried and planted

 directly in the ground the next Spring

 after the danger of frost is past.

 Nasturtiums can tolerate poorer soil. 

They can be planted directly in the ground, 

also perfect for edging, hanging baskets,

 and beautiful when grown in containers

 for a patio or balcony garden.

Nasturtium leaves and petals are edible 

and will add flavour and colour to any salad. 

I like to use Terracotta pots,
A natural, clay pot retains moisture,
keeps plants at their healthiest.

On the plant below the seed pods are visible.

3 or 4 seeds in each pod.

The seeds below, are one day old.

These seeds below, have been

 dried for a few weeks.

They are ready for planting.

Variegated Leaf Nasturtium before flowering...

Seed packages are sold in many varieties.

Thanks for your visit xo
