| RE: Keeping Cats Out of Flower Beds |

My suggestions are coffee grounds and citrus peelings. Coffee grounds the better of the two. I've also used plastic forks (big pkg for $1 or so), but skewers would look much better! I've heard bad things about using cayenne pepper - cats get it on their paws, then in their eyes and scratch their eyes -painful and cruel. ... View related article. |

I saw an idea and it might have been on Thrifty Fun. Fill the inside with silk flowers or greenery (think a foam block was used) and the tiny white lights.

I prefer to tie in yarn at the edge. I always tied a knot, but have found a new way that I like better.
Use both the old and the new piece to work the first stitch and then on the next row, and what would now be the last stitch, work both loops/stitches as one stitch. Hope this helps and hope I've explained it clearly. ... View related article. |
