DIY Pencil Holder

Recently my dad has got himself a new greenhouse, which I helped to build it. At the moment its looks fairly bare, as we haven't been able to plant much yet, as it has only been up for a couple of weeks. 

I thought I would do some bits and bob to add to it. I thought I would start with something simple, like a pencil pot, to keep all his pens, pencils, ruler etc, neatly inside.

St Clements Cheesecake

A yummy Cheesecake, perfect for a Sunday Lunch Dessert. I was quite surprised how yummy this turned out, as I was quite sceptical. For instance I normally use Philadelphia cream cheese, however, in this recipe it said to use ricotta cheese, which was a first. although delicious. 

In the Garden, Birds

Years ago we used to have lots of bird feeders around in our garden, however we stopped as we didn't get much interest from the birds, and we had cats. However, recently I have brought some new feeders and placed them up, to encourage more bird life back into our garden, since we do not have any cats at the moment. Since putting up a few birds feeders, we instantly got lots different species of birds visiting our garden.

Wildlife Pond, Park Four

This is the last part of my pond post, where I will mention what plants I plan to get when they come in season.

There are many different plants out there, and it can be hard to choose which ones, so hopefully, this helps a little to understand what you may need. 

Wildlife Pond, Part Three

In the post I will be mentioning what and how I lined my pond. What products I used, and the finished look before adding my plants. 

Before putting down any pond liner, ensure that you carefully remove any stones, or sharp objects that may penetrate the liner. 

Wildlife Pond, Part Two

In this post, I am going to show you the outline of my pond, and what shape I have done. As well as what shelving I decided to add.

Wildlife Pond, Part One

I have finally got round to doing my wildlife pond, in my garden. I wanted to do this late Summer, early Autumn, I unfortunately ran out of time. However, I have finally got it done, all I have left to do is to plant some wild flowers, make a small log pile, and find some pond plants in season to entice the frogs, and wildlife.
