Hi everyone! Isn’t this the cutest ruffled stool cover you’ve ever seen? Since we put in a new kitchen sink and faucet, I decided to do a few more kitchen updates. One of them was to have a cover made for this stool. Last year, I saw a ruffled stool cover on the blog The North End Loft and thought that something similar would fit right in our kitchen. So I had my friend Brenda who owns a local shop called Maibe Sew to whip one up for me. And I couldn’t be more tickled with how it turned out.
One of the lessons I’ve learned from my DIY gardening attempts is knowing when to give up and just start over. Sometimes that means disposing of a dead plant and literally planting something new. Other times it means brutal pruning and a season of waiting to see what happens. In the case of my forsythia, I had to give up a few weeks ago and admit defeat. I have two very old bushes, one on each corner of my house. My dad and I moved them from the back yard to the front the first summer we lived On Sutton Place. They are very old but incredibly hardy. Even though I know how to prune forsythia, the past few years I have been trimming off only the wild shoots. As a result they got very top heavy. When I started to trim them this year I realized drastic measures would have to be taken.
