Making Gifts with Nature's Bounty

[@karennewbury6430]

Another great video Terri and Lol. Terri, you should create a book of all your recipes, (food and medicine), and crafts. Such a peaceful feeling washes over me when I watch your Sunday films. Thanks for the inspirations. Have a blessed week, and a comfortable transition through the season. 🍁

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Maybe one day! That is on the list of things to do xx

[@oanawilson3881]

Wonderful! As always Terri and Lol. And of course Broc and Jazz who I adore, both of them. Yes, homemade is the best. You can’t beat it. Homemade gifts are always made with love, passion, satisfaction. It’s a wonderful feeling when giving homemade gifts and of course when receiving. Unfortunately not everybody appreciates them. Hence don’t have friends, because we are living different lives. I hate all that “plastic “ world. Rubbish! Nothing compares to a homemade loaf of bread, or a cake or biscuits, or some dried herbs in a jar, or a small tin of homemade salve or lip balm, anything that is made with love and given from the heart. As I said before, we need more people like you Terri to spread this love of homemaking things by teaching, showing us how to do it, as it’s not taught in schools. So, thank you Terri for another inspirational video! ❤️

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thanks Oana, it just makes a lot if sense to me and I pity anyone who doesn't appreciate home made xx

[@kavannahlight5378]

A beautiful way to celebrate the holiday season. Homemade gifts are rare, but worth SO much more than from the store! We celebrate Solstice as well, but really chuckled when the big "Christmas" party we attend is being held on Solstice. The best of BOTH worlds! Your creations are beautiful and healthful, thank you Terri and Lol!

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Enjoy your big party and you are right about homemade gifts xx

[@judithcoe7551]

Very good ideas using natural materials from the garden!❤🎉😊

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

YEs - it is a lovely thing to do. Hope you get to do some too xx

[@lindaashford7187]

⚠️⚠️⚠️Terri, please be aware that xylitol is deadly poisonous to many animals, including cats and dogs. Those who make/eat these biscuits mustn’t be tempted to give their pets a nibble. ‼️

[@cockerlass1689]

Sending the love back over to you and Lol Terri.Homemade gifts just rock don’t they! The best gifts are homemade.Much more personal and caring to the recipient x

[@theclumsyprepper]

I'm sure she knows it already.

[@The_WeedWitch]

Linda, please stop spreading misinformation: Xylitol is derived from plants. Too much causes accute GI track discomfort and loose bowels in mamals. Xylitol is not dangerous. Aspartame, however, slowly kills your kidneys, and by federal law in the US, companies like 'sweet n' low' are required to declare that on every box they sell. Do your research.

[@hearttohandsreikiatthesere3459]

Xylito is actually deadly To dogs and possible other animals. Vets warn of it all The time.

[@daniellereid01]

I love your ideas, so thank you for sharing them. Making my own Christmas wreath using foraged plants is one of my favourite things to do at this time of year and I do adore your hydrangeas showcased like that ❤

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

I have only started to prune the hydrangeas and they make a lovely dried flower display too xx

[@johnlord8337]

So much can be done with Nature ... and anybody getting a gift with a natural resource should be mighty impressed and appreciative. Essential oils, tinctures, tonics, liquers, creams, lotions and potions, berries, jams, jellies, all-fruits, dried leaves and spices, ...

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

As much as your creativity can guide you to do xx

[@moiragoldsmith7052]

I love Ivy too and learned something this year Terri re a little song from my childhood. 'Maisey dotes and Dozy dotes and liddle lamzy divey, a kiddly divey too...wouldn't you!' My Mother came in dreamstate and sang this to me recently. This inspired me to trace the origins of the song to understand why I had received this. I was having big problems at that time with inflammation of the eyes. I know the benefits of oats... but did not know that British ivy made into a tea is a good anti inflammatory especially for the eyes. My Mother passed 43 years back...she is still looking after her bairn Terri! 😂🤣💞

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

We know that song - we were just talking about it a couple of weeks back. My husbands grandmother used to sing it. How wonderful that your mother still gets in touch with you . You are still her precious child xx

[@moiragoldsmith7052]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden 💝 I was thrilled to bits. Xxx

[@Hoodwinkers]

My mom used to sing that to me too, I always heard/remembered it as "Mares eat oats and does eat oats, and little lambs eat ivy- a kid'll eat ivy too, wouldn't you?" 😊

[@rachelashley22]

Hello 😊 I like making lovely crafts and anything like that, yours are really nice ones, especially from the garden, I am looking forward to making these, this has really cheered me up too, have a lovely week, 😊x

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

Thank you so much 😊 So glad you feel cheered up xx

[@smiles51]

Thank you again for a lovely video. The biscuits seem very simple but look delicious. I was thinking about how lovely it is to receive a homemade gift. It does make me feel loved to think that someone has put in the time and thought to make something for me. It does mean so much! Similarly, when you make time to craft or prepare a gift for someone you love , it just seems so therapeutic 😌 i still have every mothers Day, Christmas and birthday craft and card that my four children have done over the years ( my oldest son is 32, so i have quite a few!😄) ❤️

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

You are so welcome. I have lots of stuff that my children made. Every now and again I come across it and it takes me back to when they were small enough to cuddle and sit on my knee. They still don't mind a cuddle but too big for the old knees😂 I agree with you re crafting and putting love into it xx

[@marilynroberts6644]

A happy Sunday dear Terri and Lol and the furry kids. This was another lovely visit with you filled with ideas. Gifts like you've shown are my favourites to give or receive ! I'm certainly going to add the herbal oil and those biscuits this year. Do you know a video from you is the most perfect way to begin a day ? Seasonal Blessings 🎄

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

That is so kind of you Marilyn, thank you. All the best to you too xx

[@theclumsyprepper]

Love the video Terri, as always. I also love giving homemade gifts, unfortunately most people do not appreciate them. I was once accused of being cheap after making an infinity scarf for someone. I spent €60 on the yarn, weeks crocheting it (it's difficult with fibromyalgia) and picked the nicest wrapping paper. The person that received it didn't want it and the scarf ended up in the bin! My best friend is the only one that gets gifts from me now - I make him a cheese hamper each year, with nice crackers, a bottle of wine and my homemade preserves. He loves them. My boyfriend and I agreed to not to exchange gifts at all. We both have what we need so we prefer to spend quality time together with a nice, home cooked meal and a chat.

[@DanusIrishHerbGarden]

How upsetting and disappointing for you. That sort of person doesn't know how to appreciate anything. What a shameful waste. I think though that they are in a minority. xx

[@theclumsyprepper]

@@DanusIrishHerbGarden Thank you Terri.

[@brigidteehan6414]

Thank you Terri. Handmade gifts are beautiful. I make a raw chutney for my neighbour every Christmas and it’s become a tradition that we both enjoy.

Absolutely and why wouldn't you both enjoy it! Being creative with your gifts has led to a lovely tradition that connects you to someone xx

Wonderful gift ideas! Just letting people know that if you use xylitol instead of sugar in a recipe you need to make sure none of it gets to your pets (especially dogs). They can’t digest it properly and can get really sick or die from ingesting any amount. Stevia is a good alternative.
