[@joans4668]

You inspired me so much! I paused the video...went out into the yard and created a bouquet...put it into a vase and then watched the rest of your wonderful video. Thank you

[@ForgottenWayFarms]

Your gardens, be still my heart. I really like it when Stu asks you questions, it's cool to hear you both back and forth adds a lot to your films.

[@B-leafer]

Crazy how much your daughter looks just you Shaye. Amazing. You will have some very knowledgeable kids for sure!

[@beckyjo1956]

I love how your little boy, looks up at you and says "I love you, Mom!"

[@mysteriousokapi4564]

This is literally the most perfect video for a -15 degree day in the dead of winter in Alaska. Your flowers are always so gorgeous!

[@chantellethebault8018]

You make farm life so romantic!

[@Cookingforacrowd]

I e been binge watching your channel all afternoon! Thanks for documenting your life! I know we get to enjoy everything you do in a lovely video, but just know I truly appreciate the work it takes to live this life! I bet you go to bed bone tired, but sleep so well! Way to be strong, healthy and happy!

[@alicewalters6426]

So glad to see that y'all interact with your children. Prescious kids! I like your video.

[@OOMerci]

These arrangements are exquisite and truly represent a chic homestead garden. Your chicness runneth over my dear.......

[@josie6497]

Your videos bring this mama so much joy! Thank you for sharing I get my farm fix from suburbia when I watch! God bless your beautiful family.

[@FreckledGemini]

I love your statement about why flowers make such a difference. It’s from an earlier video. I have ALWAYS made bouquets from whatever I could find and put them throughout our house. You said that it sets the tone and says that YOU CARE ENOUGH to brighten it for all who enter! You speak my language ❤️❤️

[@janicegardner9458]

I have a grown up daughter named Georgia also - she loves gardening now too!

[@SuffolkSusie]

Originally I wasn't sold on the flower box idea with the succulants and VARIOUS findings BUT IT TURNED OUT TO BE A WORK OF ART! you certainly have talent and I believe the flowers do talk to you. I think maybe various things like sticks talk to you too. Lol

[@michellelabri3388]

Inspirational, peaceful, beautifully filmed! Always a treat hanging out on your lovely homestead with you!

[@paulag.panzermd8239]

I like the bouquets NDA& appreciate the process. I’m amazed at how much you can fit in that narrow necked vase.

[@RiverPlaid]

I just love your channel because you inspire beauty no matter the subject. Thank you.

[@kaiamurnion5191]

My most favorite is also the Globe Thistle!!! It adds so much texture!!! 😊

[@charitysmith5245]

There are so many beautiful blossoms in your garden but Shay is the prettiest flower of them all♡

[@suzannesparks7909]

Can you do a detailed tour of your flower gardens? I’d love to know the names of the different varieties you grow!

[@mariasimao3522]

I just came across your channel. OMG! I love your garden and I'm binging watching your videos. I also love the energy between you and your husband.

[@theelliotthomestead]

Welcome Maria! Thank you for watching!

[@NS-pf2zc]

Ah...I need to go pick some flowers now! I have fun going out into the fields and grabbing wildflowers and grasses to mix in with my cultivated flowers. Helps with that "wild" vibe I'm going for.

[@katietheis8815]

OH my gosh I just love watching these. We are planning on tearing down our current old old beat up farm house and I want to just have you two come and set up my floor plan and help me. Just beautiful and for sure helps me see my dream

[@kham6006]

Little Georgia is a Minnie mommy -so cute

[@gailelizabeth14]

I loved this video --so inspiring. I'm longing for more garden space! Such a beautiful homestead and family you have!

[@dickybirdsnest]

great tips! I'm helping my friend with her daughter's wedding this weekend - we will be doing this from her flower beds and gardens - thanks for the inspiration!

[@tiffanyhenry8574]

I just found your channel and I am completely mesmerized by your garden areas! SO beyond beautiful!!!!

[@ThePattiw]

The reason why one clips on an angle is a) to make sure the stem on the live plant has a surface which will allow water to flow off it and that prevents disease and b) that the cut flower or stem in your bouquet has the most surface to take in water when it is in the container.

[@Ultrazaubererger]

came here to say this

[@theelliotthomestead]

There you go! Glad someone knows.

[@drekfletch]

Further, you can cross-slice woody stems about 1/2-1" to help uptake water. We do this with our lilacs in the spring, and they last longer.

[@barbarastout4759]

Beautiful flower arrangements😊. To me there is peace, tranquil, bring a me a smile of happiness☺💖

[@asubstantiallife7557]

Thank you for BEING REAL, Miss Shaye! Love it!

[@B-leafer]

I like the "Stu interviews Shaye" thing. It works.

[@eliokcu8573]

This will be my go to video for whenever I am stressed. I have already watched it twice since yesterday. Thank you, it speaks to my soul ❤️

[@DansonforJoy]

Thank you for yet another glimpse into your life. :) Love all the flowers and sunshine in your gardens, and how cool and cozy your house seems in comparison.

[@1000sofroots]

Thank you for another beautiful, inspiring video . . . my daughter and I enjoyed it immensely during our tea time this afternoon.🙂 Blessings from the Smyth family.

[@HuckleberryHA]

Really nicely done. Love the team work to share info. Great images and audio control. tfs God Bless Cathy

[@beckyjo1956]

It's playing thru the whole video.. it sounds Happy!

[@tommathews3964]

You have such style! Wonderful walk through the gardens, enjoying the kids playing/helping. Beautiful bouquets, made up of some things I would have never thought to include! Hot as H#ll back here in Alabama, and the humidity is it's usual 1,000%...….don't you miss us?! :)

[@TheBereangirl]

My husband uses this approach to flower arranging. He makes some of the most beautiful bouquets.💕

[@lee-traister]

God help me. You guys are so talented!

[@jodiestevens4390]

Love this! You inspired me to just pick my stuff and enjoy it indoors. I would hve never thght of including herbs; they look darling!

[@Jackiedanielz]

This was a wonderful video! Thanks for sharing your farms beauty! I, too, grow mint for mojitos

[@michaelolivia85]

GREAT video. I love the format..the flow.. the easy going feeling, like we are getting the chance to hang out with you :-) The amount of talk from Stu and yourself, is the perfect balance. I just love your style Shaye and the way you think. So inspiring. Oh and the music..thumbs up. Great job, Stu! You two work well together.

[@angiesgarden1724]

I'm having garden envy! :) Your garden is lovely!

[@edithy1765]

Love your kind of living love your family too. God bless.

[@jamesnelson4452]

Always a beautiful video, thanks Shaye and Stu.

[@theelliotthomestead]

James Nelson Thanks for watching 💗

[@jamesnelson4452]

The Elliott Homestead Youre welcome, I always will.

[@victoriaheuman8853]

Love the clear countertops around the sink, great form and makes florals pop!

[@sansomspressurecleaningpoo9519]

FYI you cut the stem at an angle it allows the plant to drink the water so they last longer. If you cut them flat. it checked them out.

[@ashleyhall6287]

I really, really enjoy your garden videos! It’s a peaceful and informative retreat! Thanks for the great tips on flower arranging. So inspirational!

[@theelliotthomestead]

Ashley Hall thanks for watching 💗

[@lauriesickles5393]

Just beautiful!

[@LadyWisdomSpeaksAcademy]

Very nice! Your daughter is following you in loving the garden.

[@jaynemar1]

Beautiful purple cabbages!

[@rybig259]

So happy u guys are back with more videos love your farm

[@jazminbennett4410]

You need to do a farm house tour!!!!!!!! I’m dying here on how you house is!

[@theelliotthomestead]

Jazmin Bennett We are planning on switching to ‘interior’ videos in the winter... stay tuned!

[@lisapieper3598]

I guess you have planted things gradually over the years & just let the garden take shape? We have recently moved & this will be my 5th garden start over. Flowers & veggies. I am 58 & this is my last on a bigger scale! Thanks for sharing!!

[@1gr8lpta]

WOW! You really inspire me. What a beautiful farm and home.

[@countrymousesfarmhouse497]

How beautiful to pick all those different flowers, herbs and veggies for bouquets. I really love that succulent idea. Thanks for sharing another lovely video.❤️❤️❤️

[@cjaracz2757]

I so enjoy your videos... Stay in LOVE with your homestead. It is beautiful!

[@PatBarr55]

Beautiful garden, love seeing the kids helping!

[@theelliotthomestead]

Pat Barrett ‘Helping’ is such a broad term... 🤪

[@TheSilentHomesteader]

I just love your peaceful Sanctuary!! You should consider making those awesome relaxation videos with just farm life!

[@FarmhouseTeas]

All so beautiful! Think I'll head out to the garden and do the same!! Love Zinnas also!!

[@backporchfarmstead3986]

I love using my lemon balm in boquets. Adds slme yummy smelling green. Even to purk up an old boquet.

[@theelliotthomestead]

Back porch Farmstead Great idea!

[@sibelb4152]

You could try adding in some florals like Russian Sage, or poppies, or different colored creeping thymes, they are all pretty drought tolerant.

[@shannonkernall-singh9611]

LOVE this video! So beautiful and inspiring

[@amberdabney6174]

Beautiful bouquets, I love seeing other people breathing in the air and nature around them, taking in the quiet and breeze of early morning. I get a kick out of doing dishes and looking out the window and seeing our hens and squirrels eating pears that fell from our trees early and we're too small to bring in so I leave them for the animals to enjoy too. Our hens have finally reached the age to start laying eggs and I was ecstatic to go out to the coop and find eggs. There is so much satisfaction in doing things and producing things for yourself. If you don't mind me asking what is the name of the song at the end of the video?

[@RLSCS]

That song! 💕💐🌻 I would love to know where I can find the full version.

[@KristenHuckeba]

RLSCS I came here to see if someone had asked about the song at the end! I’m trying to find it but I can’t! I LOVE it! ❤️

[@ngoziukah8475]

The song is ‘it’s a beautiful day’ by River Sam.

[@RLSCS]

@@ngoziukah8475Thank you!

[@ilzitek2419]

Lush garden! Such Joy -- much love and time and work...

[@LittleIowa]

Love the purple dress 😍

[@sherryg.6564]

Beautiful. So jealous of your garden.

[@MermieOriginals]

A woman after my own heart ;). My plants speak too...especially if I inadvertently miss one while watering. I also make my bouquets like that, same as how I cook really, lol, just go with what feels right. Love the idea of 'edible' bouquets! Thanks for the inspiration as Autumn begins here in central France and the garden is tiring. Already have some new ideas for the spring! Much love, Louise

[@susanovington3930]

I loved this video! Salt of the earth family!

[@aloysiusfranklin9800]

I love the videos you guys post. It's so real and nothing choreographed. Stay blessed and keep us inspired. Btw, Happy New year.

[@athisasapriina2982]

I love your garden ❤️... beautiful.. beautifully organised.. I mean the whole property .. keep updating more

[@Cee1505]

I too loved the music and woundered where to find it...Lovely video

[@pamelacarroll7140]

the farm is so pretty! Could you make some videos about the animals if you have time?

[@11bluerosexoxo]

Beautiful! this was a wonderful start to my day:)

[@RiverPlaid]

🌸Just lovely 🌸

[@BelindaTN]

Where did you get that apron you have on in this video. I like it a lot. I especially like the pockets.

[@BelindaBower]

This was such a beautiful video! I just discovered your channel today and am enjoying it so much. Thank you.

[@theelliotthomestead]

Welcome! I am so happy you found us and are enjoying it. Thank you for watching.

[@dergartenimker]

Hallo Euer Garten ist klasse und sehr naturverbunden. Macht bitte weiter so. Schöne Grüße aus Cologne ( Germany)

🍃🌼Really beautiful🌸 🍃

[@KayNolte]

Beautiful!

[@seedsoffaith2369]

Loved them

[@SugarCreekCottage]

Love! 💚

[@Irishcloth]

It soaks up water better when you cut it at an angle. Gardeners intuition :)

[@dreyno64]

How many seedlings you have in there? I envy your space. My husband just revamped my greenhouse and I’m 10x12 polycarbonate. I’ve maxed out my space. The lady I’m doing plants for wanted 4”pots and they take up lots of room! Gorgeous gh!!

[@lodi102]

Beautiful

[@maryedmo7798]

Love this! Thanks for sharing!

[@jojo1DrSeuss]

Did you find that broadforking helped with tomato production or is it the same? And with your flower gardens do you just plant whatever you think is pretty wherever, or did you have a picture in your head?

[@Truthseeker8791]

I am in love with your life. What a beautiful standard to aspire to!

[@karenhogan731]

Beautiful 💐🌻

[@tiffanyhenry8574]

Also, I have a lavender plant that I'm finding difficult to care for, do you think you could do a video on those?

[@sydnieknutson9091]

Tiffany Henry I second this! Mine is kind of a baby plant and I don’t think I’m helping it much.

[@tiffanyhenry8574]

+Sydnie Knutson I bought mine spring this year, upgraded the pot size and re- planted it and all of the flowers that were already growing fell over and were drooping really hard off the sides of the pot. The leaves recently starting turning yellow so I just cut them off near the base.... I don't know what I'm doing wrong lol

[@ahandmadehomestead]

Great video! I’d also love to know the song at the end, google was no help!

[@hocuspocus8278]

Journey Through Love "Shazam" to the rescue! River Sam- It's a beautiful day

[@mandythislovelypath3740]

Oh, good gravy! I have nearly 5 acres where I constantly battle thistle. Lol It must not be invasive where you are.

[@makj2406]

I believe that is globe thistle, a cultivated plant. Different than the wild, yucky thistle.

[@nanlauber398]

Hi! ☺ I am new to this channel... I just adore it! ❤ Thxfs, Simply beautiful flowers! And garden as well! 🌻🌱 You have a lovely channel.😊 Fr: Nan in NoNJ.🍀

[@asubstantiallife7557]

BTW, where'd ya get the butcher block countertop? I want to do an "english country kitchen" in my kitchen to replace granite tile I currently have (yucky grout!!!) - any advice would be appreciated!

[@indianne9781]

A Substantial Life i love it too.

[@TheArtisanbard]

This was lovely

[@melindathomas3053]

Sweet Beautiful Video.

[@margiesteininger3344]

cutting roses at an angle helps them drink more water so they stay alive longer

[@rambukah76]

I love your videos ❤️🌱
