I know what you mean Colette. I go out into our garden every morning and see what's come up overnight. I sit quietly weather permitting and watch the birds coming to the feeders. We have a hare that comes up the lane every day. I love just sitting and taking in everything nature has to offer. Your garden is looking magical!
I was at the garden center and while there someone was asking for a butterfly bush
They were concerned about it being invasive. I was at the checkout when I heard that . Thinking of you and in true form I said, "they are only invasive if you don't have a pair of pruners"! The lady laughed, said how true 😂😂
The lovely sound of a running stream.
I envy your rainfall. We are in an extended drought in Texas. A wildfire recently burned over 1 million acres of land and burned down dwellings as well. Sorry for the bummer post. It's just what is going on here. Still I enjoy the verdant magic that is Bealtaine Cottage. Thank you.
In Michigan but my heart breaks for those touched by the Texas wildfires.
Oh wow, I’m doing something similar in my cottage garden now. Mines going to be a door that enters a small wildflower area. I have an old wooden gate that I’ll put on one side. It looks like a fence. So glad I found this tonight.
Thank you for the walk about this morning Colette and the lesson in arch building. I am going to give that a try. Bealtaine is looking magical in all her budding beauty. A delight to the senses as always. 💚
A nice wander or dander is so refreshing. Curiosity is a virtue
blessed be Colette and patsy your land is looking well ...overgrow overshare overcare overseed everywhere worldwide...have a grand day and a little treat for patsy....cheers Goddess Bless
I completely understand what you are saying about people who don't notice or appreciate nature. It does sometimes make one feel alone and disappointed. But then to go out and see the beauty sort of helps me feel sorry for those who don't see it. I go on.
Looking at your fabulous arch I laughed out loud thinking of your motto you always say: Just throw it in the pot and see what comes out. Just throw it in the ground and see what comes up. 🦋
I really enjoyed our morning walk, Collette. Thank you for taking me along. Many blessings to you and Patsy.
I had to giggle when you were talking about one thing and then switched to something else! I do that all the time! we call it butterflying or squirreling. I’ll be walking in my garden talking away with my friend when something catches my eye…….butterfly!
I think the arch will look gorgeous Colette! Blessings to you and dear Patsy ❤❤
I will definitely be using this to build one in my little veggie garden!
Colette! Your giggles and pure love for Patsy is tremendously delightful! The arch is spectacular. Great job! Think I'll try, too! xxoo
Yippee 🎉
Thanks Collette for sharing this video with us ❤
The ability to make these arches and make them supporting their bountiful and magnificent plants is a great blessing and resource for the artistic nature of our gardens and the ability to grow things horizontally and vertically ❤
That honeysuckle is going to be extremely happy with the rampant growth and lushly flowering nature of its quick development of a sweet smelling bee and bird nectar providing tangled masses of flowers 😊🎉❤
You are absolutely incredible and very inspiring ❤
Wee Patsy is a cutie. ❤🐕❤
Wee Patsy is looking great and has her own unique ways of living with love for you and her comfortable home with such contentment and joy.
The ability to live together harmoniously and joyously in this place of so much magnificence and abundance of life thriving and flourishing. 🥰🐕💚🤎🩵💙🩷💛💜🧡🤍🙌🫶✌️🕊🦉🐦🐦⬛🐸🦋🐝🐞🐌🌱🌿🍀🌳🌱🌿🍀🌲🪺🪻🌷🌹🪻🌼🪺❤
Yes, Colette really knows how to make beautiful creative things,both for the home and out in the Garden....
She could start a school for us, her followers, so we can learn to be using our own creativity in the best of way and with nature in mind to be more soulful when it comes to spend time in nature or in our Gardens!
Happy Easter to you!
🌱👍🏻🇸🇪💖🥀🤗🐣🌱
@@kristinaatgreenmeadowswede6714 Her whole life is a great resource for our well-being and the ability to live creativity and joyously in alignment with peace and joy in this magnificent earthly adventure.
We all have many different types of blessings and gifts for the understanding of our differences and our own unique ways of living with enthusiasm and creativity.
We are witnessing the freely given and generous offers of Collette's unique ways of living in love with her passion for the environment and all that exists.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feelings about this incredibly exciting opportunity to experience the wisdom and dedication of this soulful woman who loves to work in the development of creating a sanctuary and a great relationship with respect and nurturing in her life's purpose.
She is constantly planting seeds in our minds to help us grow with exuberance and abundance in our hearts and actions 🌱🌿🍀🌳🪺🌺
Delightful Colette. The stream tinkling away and the birds chirping and the plants refreshed. The creation constantly re-creates and it is indeed very good 💐❤ Easter blessings to you and yours🙏🐣
Omg!
I was looking on line yesterday on how to build my own garden arch!
Synchronicity
Thank you Collete❤
Nature moves me every time I go out either for a walk or in the garden, especially at this time of year xx
Colette my wife is blind to nature😢 not like me I notice nature which can lift you up take care and God bless from Gary on the sunny Isle of wight
WOW, A BEAUTIFUL FAIRY GARDEN LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING MORE.
Fantastic work. Whenever I see the Little stained glass house I think of Mr Ratty, he looked that cozy. Wonderful walk about and looks incredible in all weathers. Patsy ehjoyed your gillet, I am like that with Pippin my cat I hate to disturb him. Enjoy your surroundigs, a real labour of love. Cuddles for Patsy. E x
💚 Colette I love going for walks different times of the day session in my gardens and walk the path ways see my little plant and animal friends enjoy everything about it I was even talking to my little gardener snake been with me for a few years Sun bath on the rocks near my aseedume garden . Brings me joy . Keep the wonderful videos coming. Hi to u and sweet little patsy ❤
The best seeing nature coming back to life
Being in nature is very calming. I really enjoy my walks with my little dog in amongst the trees. Have a wonderful peaceful weekend ❤❤❤
I think you’ve hit on what I need over the top of our fairy garden.. setting things out this weekend when the sun returns! It’s rustic and magical with the structure! Love it- Hi Pats!
The sights, sounds and smells of nature are a salve to the soul. No matter the mood if I just shake myself a bit and get outside to the allotment or for a walk I feel so much better refreshed and renewed.
Was reading about the ribes. The flower and young leaf makes a lovely tea apparently. Best wishes for you Colette. Joe
Un bonjour de france, en Touraine...
Merci pour toutes vos belles vidéos, vous me redonnez du courage pour m'occuper de ma maison et de mon jardin que j'ai l'immense chance de posséder.
Et sans oublier une tendre caresse à votre petite Patsy.
Just fabulous, what a remarkable garden. Loved it all.🐝🐞👩🏻🌾👍
You'll probably find your wore at another time when you need it. That's always the way. I've been meaning to do this, and it made me think that I could start prepping the wood... inspired.
Lovely garden and video.... thank you for keeping me company 😊
She finds the best spots to snuggle!
Colette you are such a beautiful woman and person. Thank you and many blessings to you and your lovely Patsy. Similar to you, Colette, I cannot understand why many people don't like or care for nature either. I have relatives who cannot stand the sun ☀ shining or even the birds 🐦 chirping. For me, I love both, I love it all. Colette, your videos mean so much to me I am so thankful and grateful for all your inspiring videos and for you. Colette, you give me that inspiration and motivation to live a life similar like yours. I am sending you blessings (and I hope you don't mind some wee prayers) that someone knowledgeable will come around to fix your Stanley stove ❤❤❤
So beautiful to see Spring unfolding in your gentle landscape as I watch from semi tropical Australia where we are just into ❤Autumn. and days are still around 28C
Your mention of fairies as I watched your garden, made me question whether they really live here in this harsher climate. Don’t get me wrong . I live in a very beautiful rural area. But watching the gentleness of your garden made me long for a taste of that too.
I love your wild garden! It’s so natural, colorful, calming & just wonderful! I just planted potatoes & a plumeria this am. I check my yard every am & get a thrill when something new pops up overnight!!
dear Colette....thank you so much for showing how to built this........................your garden is so beautiful.............Blessings and Greetings for you and a big hug for little cute Patsy..............from Daggy,Kiel,Germany☘☘☘
Camellias grow very well here in the Southeastern US. Better in my home state of Georgia than in Florida where I currentlyl live. My red camellias have all dropped to the ground. When I lived in Mississippi ny grandmother's camillias bloomed just after Christmas. Oh and forcythis. I do love those cheerful yellow flowers. They do not grow here in Florida. I grew up dwith them around my home in Atlanta, Ga. THey remind me of my sweet innocnet childhood. I may have lived in the city, but Atlanta is known for it's green spaces. You have to get a pemit to cut any tree down, even that one in your front yard that maybe dieing. The cityof trees. How I miss it. It is too hot here in Florida. Thank you for your videos. They warm my heart.
We just received 6 inches of snow here in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, USA. Still freezing weather here with lots of ice. So nice to see your spring weather. Ours is about a month away, or more. We have had snow storms as late as mid-May and frost at night until June. Thanks for sharing your spring weather.
I am also in northern MI and am waiting for the green 🌿
I ❤ things made from nature
Yesss🥰
Good Evening Colette!
This is actually very magic because I was sitting her planing for an Arch in my Garden and then I took a look at CZcams and there you where making a new one yourself... 👍🏻🙏🏻
I so love the natural "wonky"🤗 shape of it, because for me that kind of Arch seems to have a soul in it, which sturdy and straith, bought ones, do not have (my opinion).. and it is the same with trees, crocked ones have a beautiful shape and soul, I think.... Anyway, you give me so much energy so I have to start building my own Arch. But that has to wait until tomorrow because here the Daylight is fading away more and more and it is time for some evening meal!
So Thank You for this lovely and "magical" video today...
And please give a little hug to Patsy, the little Sweet "rascal" of yours!
😉🤗💖🌱🇸🇪
You have the most beautiful natural garden.
Hello Colette, I really love your ribes shrub and recently bought one for my own garden... and then I suddenly realised that my grandmother had one in her garden where I played as a little girl with my nieces and nephews. It is a beautiful reminder of my grandmother for me now. I also love the smell of the leaves! Thanks for all the beauty that you share, the lushness of mother nature just makes me want to cry of joy! When I enter Nature, I feel very emotional too, but also very grateful towards her.
I love your "Eden", Colette, and sweet Patsy "The Little Explorer". Your archway is really nice, so beautiful in your garden. Have a Happy and blessed Easter.
I just love rustic & rusty objects in the garden to give the eye something to look at The woodland is so ready to explode with growth AMAZING to see Colette. ❤Kerry Australia
Thank you for the lesson in garden arch building as I am definitely going to try and build one, once the weather is more conducive where I live. I love your heaven on earth home and land.
Thank you for the walk!
Wow, I didn't realise they were that easy to build.
The garden looks amazing. I had the most enjoyable 3 hours working in my garden. Best medicine ever.
Blessings to you, Colette and Patsy xx
such lovely visions of diverse blossoms!
Thank you for this wonderful morning!
Been enjoying your videos for awhile now - your voice and beautiful garden & forest are so soothing. Many thanks 😊
Your garden is magical. This is the first time I’ve seen your videos… I subscribed because I want to see it burst into summer. I live in Las Vegas, in USA. We are supposed to do drought tolerant landscaping, but I couldn’t survive without my plants, so I am not compliant. I dream of a garden like yours with the rain and leaves all over the place. What a treat to see it all. Thanks for sharing….
Love your garden Forrest and can’t wait to one day have something like your in the future. Just planted 5 fruit trees and some grapes. Also put cuttings in the ground to start other fruit trees and bushes. You’re such a wonderful inspiration. 💚🌱
Your 🫠home and 💕garden is full of labor of love and life! 🌳🌳🌳so lush!!! Sooo beautiful 🌳🤗🌳Thank you so much for showing us how to create our own! 💕🌳🪴🪴🪴(🌳) warm hugs and kisses to dear Patsy 😘🐶!!! Much peace ✌🏼 Love 💗 and Light to you both✨🤗💕💗🌷🌸
Ribes common name flowering current. Not to be confused with the fruiting current canes.
Where i live this lovely piece woud ony blow down😮or be covered by morning glory😮
Love your natural arch and technique of building it on sight. Brilliant.
Can't wait for the greening of spring here in the Piney Woods. Your beautiful tour was very inspiration. 🌿
A couple of days ago I saw 2 swans and 2 butterflies. We are still having snow occasionally. I live in Canada along the Alaska Highway
I love nature, your land and cottage are beautiful!
Beautiful spring garden and arch idea!
I do envy you that stream! Love it!!
Beautiful area
I've also never been able to fathom how many here hate trees, and plants that "get in the way of the mower" or drop leaves that "need" to be noisily blown away by a leaf blower, and not swept up into compost or dropped on the grass to break down. (Too unmanly to use a broom?) What species of people are these? My (rented) garden in the Melbourne suburbs is full of 50-60 year old conifers that most neighbours would say are too big for suburban gardens, yet what shade they provide in hot summers, how much grub and bird life they foster, how many frogs live amongst my potted plants, not heard from the neighbour's with his motorised fountain and synthetic lined pond. The more we hear of declining wildlife and ecosystems, why isn't everyone gardening like this? A beautiful rose once pulled me out of the deepest despond, possibly saving my life. What power a beautiful garden has, and yet how little monetary value in our warped urban lives? Thank you, Collette, more power to you!
THANK YOU FOR THIS
✨💚🌱🍄🌿🌷💫✨
your spring is so far ahead of ours. Still frozen and snow on the ground here on the 🇨🇦 prairies! i am hoping this spring brings good soft soaking rain! It has been drought for over two years and the ground is very very dry with high risk of more forest fires.
nice cottage garden
So pretty i have had a arch for many years since 🎉 the nineties and this year is the forst uear to grow somerhibg on it i have a climbing rose to plant by it its pink ❤❤
Loved your 'tour'... seldom enjoy but yours was wonderful
Thank you once again for this lovely video ❤
I never posted a comment but I want to say you are such an inspiration to me. I heard on a recent video that you have done all this by yourself. That's my situation and I am just getting started. Maybe not as young as you were when you started but it's what I got going and I will do the best that I can. Thank you for your sharing. I do need an arch, incidentally! I have a rambling rosebush that needs a place to perch on!
I marvel at your arch building skills! So much emerging daily in the garden now, a lot of rain though, would love a dry day! Patsy looks so content.
All looks awesome 😅it's hard work something simple but still a lot of work and fun enjoying the video lovely 🎉🎉❤
I LOVE IT! Your garden inspired me to build one last year, just because i loved the look and i figured you used what nature provided. So i had to have trees cut down and i took strong limbs from them to build the arch. Because the trees were Austrian Pines, them limbs had a great curve which allowed me to create a gothic look to the structure. Last year i grew gourds over it. This year I’m hoping for sweet peas and something else
Love the arch, will try and build one similar. Thanks for all your great advice. :)
Clever ribes, blooms with a leaf covering it to protect the nectar. Isn’t Nature marvelous?
Thanks for sharing God's beautiful creation in your part of the world.
Looks so peaceful and quiet there. Thank you for sharing. As for pics, my phone is far more full of nature than people, tho I always try to get some of family when I can❤
I enjoyed this so much. Thank you Collette. I love seeing everything so bright green after a rain there & oh my goodness how I love the sound of the stream.❤
Love your frugality
That is such a romantic arch. Easy and it's always great to use up bits you have laying around. I have been wanting to put in a clematis and this would be such a great addition to my garden this spring.
Beatiful! The arch will be covered quickly with flowers! I love climatis!
So magical! You and Patsy are truly blessed, thanks for sharing :)
I have a pheasant walk past my back door sometimes, so beautiful they are. I have yellow butterfly shrubs, which are not so common and take cuttings every year.
💕 your garden!!!
I don't believe it. I spent the day gardening and asked my Husband if we could have an arch or two. He replied yes and then I got a notification. Collette showing how to build a rustic garden arch. I was a bit taken aback to say the least. By the way can I grow gunnera away from my pond. The soil is always wet and it too is on an island of wet clay soil.
Beautiful as all of your gardens and the forest is...I have been collecting limbs from downed trees to make a garden gate and will now add an archway because of your inspiration.
Your arch looks lovely, Colette. It fits right in.
Thoroughly enjoyable Colette, thank you. ❤
Love your arch...it'll be beautiful with the honeysuckle climbing all over it, thought it looks nice even now!
You must have been reading my mind! Was just looking up arches this morning
I love these, can't wait to build my own.
❤thank you for such a peaceful channel❤
Truly a paradise you created!
Oh Collette this video was divine, all the greenery and birdsong, I only have an average size garden, which I love, and everything in it I have grown from seed or cuttings, I have just given my neighbour, a hydrangea camilla cutting which I took last year, she is only young with a young family but luckily she loves her garden also, I am getting on a bit now but I still manage to get out there and Potter, unfortunately I only manage about an hour and a half and then this old body starts to hurt, but I love your vlogs, nature is wonderful, xxx
I love your new arch, it looks good from all angles too.
Your garden is gorgeous! Thanks for posting this vid, it has given me ideas :)
Thank you!
Thanks Colette and wee Patsy, that was beautiful as always. I must look into getting one of your books. Regards from the Highlands, Phil 🎉
O my I love that, I'm doing a more natural look , i use rocks for my border and this would just go so good with it ty for sharing
Yes! Another arch! Everything looks awesome....👍😎🇨🇦🌸🌿🪴🌼🐾
