ENGLISH COTTAGE FALL WALKWAY & PORCH MAKEOVER | MAKING A BOXWOOD HEDGE PATH | FRONT YARD 2022

[@almanieves6822]

Hello Bev !! I feel like I know you since a long time!!! Always watching your videos even when I can’t sleep for the pain (I’m a Cancer patient),just watching your videos and then praying and reading a Psalm,soothes me a lot,and make me fall sleep… Continue to be blessed and highly favored by Our Lord… Blessings to your family and hubby for having a woman that blesses them with a tidy,clean and gorgeous home….not because of the videos on KZbin…but because is a pleasure for her to be a Proverb’s 31 /Century 21 kind of woman…. So much success to reap…. Way to go….🎉🎉🎉 A living example for the younger and an inspiration for the not so young like me…..(70)😅 Blessings 🎉🎉🎉❤

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Alma may the Lord rest his hands of healing and comfort on you🙏. Yes, reading Gods promising words have a way of reminding us everything will be as God intended…PERFECT. Let us all remember to fight the good fight and go through this life with Our Lord and Saviors kindness and love.🌷 ((HUGS))🌷

[@cindyreinhart9552]

Alma How beautiful your words are! I'm so sorry for your pain. Alma I love our Lord also! You are now in my prayers. May our Father in heaven bless you and yours. I had to comment because this channel always comforts me...we have a lot in common Alma. Sending you some love.

[@janicekeisler9225]

Alma, You are an inspiration to me. Trusting in the Lord for all things first and sharing His word with others are examples we all need to follow. Enjoying Bev’s talent and beauty for the home and life is uplifting. Prayers for your healing and strength. Isaiah 41:10

[@sandybiondo4004]

Alma, what inspiring words. I have you in my prayers. God Bless you.

[@roseoreillysievers6057]

Bev, I'm so sorry you are going through this awful. My niece had triple negative breast cancer. She is cancer now for almost 4 years. I will pray for you to get better

[@lindaparra6002]

I also love the music in the second segment. It’s so dramatic. Thank You. Blessings!!!

Good morning Bev. Excellent video. My favorite method of maintaining a sustainable pantry and garden and stockpiling items long term for the whole family is what I consider to be the most practical, utilizing every type of food storage methods and technology available, both old and new. . Except for the fruits and vegetables that get canned, I keep perishable items like meat, poultry, fish, fruit, vegetables and dairy products in the refrigerator on a short term basis until I'm ready to use them for a big family meal - and for even longer term sustainable storage, a large separate freezer, which can store a half side of beef with plenty of room left over for homemade ice cream etc. . I'm considering upgrading to a walk-in freezer at some point.in the near future, if my plans to open a bed and breakfast come to fruition. Sometimes, however a nice round of cheese can do well for quite awhile on a pantry shelf at room temperature - and doesn't mind even if it has to stand there alone. Store bought canned goods get shelves.in the large pantry closet - several for canned meat like corned beef hash, spam and sandwich spread and another for canned vegetables Bread, rolls, grains, homemade pasta, cereals and the like are stored in special humidity controlled bins I order from Amazon Prime - which usually get delivered to my doorstep about an hour after I order them. . Stuff from the family garden and orchard, like onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, cauliflower, cucumber, pumpkins, carrots, corn celery,, potatoes and yams, cherries, blueberries and strawberries get canned in Mason Jars and stored in the cool, root cellar of this wonderful rambling former farmhouse (circa 1867) I share with my extended blended family and several rambunctious dogs raised on table scraps from the some of the finest food from a plethora of sources both commercial and home based. . There's even a special separate "summer kitchen" which I converted to store butter and ice cream churns, pots, pans, utensils, extra storage containers, foil, bags, cutlery, and other meal related accoutrement. Out back in the woods, just beyond the big pile of wood I maintain all year, (for use in an antique woodstove I keep on hand, in case the power goes out) there's even an old rusting vintage still where my great grandfather made some of the finest corn whiskey for miles. Next to it is the rusting hulk of the Ford Model A he used to transport that powerful hootch by the light of the moon on soft summer nights to his eager customers in a tri-county area. Further into this verdant forest of mostly sycamore, oak, pine and scrub, runs a cool stream into which I occasionally cast a rod or net to catch some Brook Trout, Bluntnose Shiners, or whatever takes the bait (just earthworms for the most part). And yes, hunting season means wild turkey, deer, and even an occasional wild boar. Next week, I'm planning on filing for a permit to 3-D print a smokehouse in order to be able to create gourmet artisan handcrafted, beef, bacon, turkey, and beef stick jerky, which interested local merchants can private label for other people to share with their families and their family dogs. Unfortunately, I had to break the bad news to my free range hens today that due to expected egg shortages regretfully numbered are their days of laying a couple of eggs and then basically taking the rest of the day off with ranging privileges' within the parameters of a few very nice rural acres - parts of which are rich with fat grubworms. There's even a short dirt road between the main barn and the farmhouse which they're free to cross to get to the other side as often as they'd like. My rooster Ben overheard me and he ain't too happy either, knowing full well that due to oncoming egg shortages, he'll be "workin' overtime to make sure there's plenty of eggs for the family and I. 😎😎👍👍🌻🌻

Oh Bev, your English Cottage border of Boxwoods and Pansies are the perfect addition to your lovely cottage's front path. Boxwoods always look so elegant and add amazing structure to a new border. An augur was a very smart purchase for landscaping projects. 🧡🤎💛

[@judywilson2020]

Your not kidding when you said A LOT of work. But Oh, How Beautiful it's going to look in the end. It already looks so nice. It's so charming and very welcoming ...

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

Thank you, Judy❤️!

[@cherylcentenioblessedvirgi3241]

The garden is very beautiful. I like using black landscape cloth, which prevents weeds from growing around the plants. I like the black edger as well. The Autumn decorations are very pretty. Last night I purchased 2 orange pumpkins, which is usual every year for Autumn decorations. My geraniums are still blooming beautifully and they will remain in the containers until they are spent. I will definitely plant red geraniums next year as well as the following years. Thank you for sharing and have a great day!

[@lindafaierson6030]

Everything looks so nice and neat and festive. It says, "Bev has been here."

[@dianewilliams2450]

Another lovely video! That is such a charming walkway. I love your videos. My mother passed away in August and you’re helping me get back to doing the things I love. I also use lots of black furniture and accents and have done so for years. I also love the warmer golds and bronzes. The music you use is so calming and beautiful. I particularly like the one that’s played for “A Closer Look”. Can you tell me the name of it. It sounds so familiar to me but I just can’t place it. Love hearing about Northern Virginia as I lived there over fifty years. I wish you continued success on your channel because I certainly enjoy watching it!

[@sallywest5634]

OOOh Bev such a lot of hard work but my goodness so worth it. I don't have much out the front of my little cottage and it faces North so I always change up my window according to the seasons and I have a bike wheel wreath which I do the same too. Here in the UK Autumn came in very quickly this year and I still have summer bedding in flower so I am holding off with Autumn planting until they go over. Thanks so much Bev for not only sharing your beautiful cottage but also your garden with us. xxxx

[@PershijsmachnijKherson]

Hello, great work! Thanks for sharing this video! Keep doing what you love, good luck!💗💐💐💐

[@judybrown4769]

Pansies have the sweetest faces don't they. I've had to give mine a couple haircuts this summer, but they lasted through the horrible heat. We have boxwoods and you can't ask for a prettier shrub and so easy to care for. We planted a smaller species right up in front of the house. Our brick is a herringbone pattern there and didn't want to hide it. Everything has grown so large there over the years. These are perfect. Know you'll love these plantings and they won't take over your life. Have a happy-sunny faced Sunday😁

[@rhondanelson6491]

Beautiful, love the pansies, mums and pumpkins, it is so inviting….

OH Miss Beverly we love your kind spirited soul so very much. Let me share with you that I fell in love with your black door, FINE PAINTS OF EUROPE..HOLLANDAC BRILLIANT 98. I have been researching and you are so correct they are considered the best and only special retailer which are only and hand full here in North Carolina. It does look like candy. Unbelievable the time spent on formulating this product. You are a world of knowledge and I thank you. Your entryway is so amazing, hubby did an awesome job with the window boxes. If you do not put with window boxes on the top floor windows perhaps you could consider adding black painted medallion headers above the windows for that contrast. That would be very striking. So many designs and you could even create your own original design. Good-bye for now. I would love to have your voice on cd reading the entire Bible, with joys of Praise and everything inspirational to share with the world. We could set up a GOFUNDME and build your own studio at home and set you up. God has truly blessed you with so many talents and I feel the calmness and nurturing in your voice. I think its deemable to say, YOU HAVE THE GIFT.....Sending Blessing and Love to you and your family, friends and loved ones from my Home in Raleigh, North Carolina to yours. Always my sister and friend in Christ...............Jeff

Happy Sunday, I am so excited to watch this video. We have been working on the inside of your house since we brought it two years Ok. This fall I will be planting bulbs and beginning to work on the yard. I live in zone 5b so I purchased over three hundred bulbs for two large beds. My house is over 130 yrs. old most of scrubs had to be removed. They were so old that they looked more like trees. There was a large garden bed of flowers that I removed & sprinkled the plants around the well and garage. We will be starting over next years so I enjoy seeing this type of video for ideas. Everything you do is so magical. Thank you for sharing until next time. Take care❤

[@TheLittleBlueFly]

I would love to see photos, Carolyn😁! Yes, yard work is a labor of love and so worth it. Have a wonderful Sunday.🍂🐿🏡

@@TheLittleBlueFly I do relate.Squirrels had a feast the first time that I put out pumpkins.The next year I thought I was so smart to use Styrofoam, squirrels nibbled all over those too; and they dug up the bulbs!You would think my 3 huge pecan trees would keep them entertained and nicely plump! Hope you had a soothing massage to ease those hardworking muscles.
