Tidying

Many happy homemakers give advice on how to tidy house in sections. We heartily agree with this but they often neglect the garden, but oh no! not moi!

So here are my tips for for clearing up the garden:

1) Make your own hand-woven wicker baskets (very easy, took me a minute as I had presoaked the wicker during the night).
2) organize baskets-one for balls, one for miscelaneous.
3) Before the visitors arrive, check the children. If they're looking grubby, pop them in the basket as well.
4) Finally a little bit of Christmas scented air freshener on the flowers will disguise any ineptitude with growing things.
