Grow Your Own Flowers for Kids

Liam McCann

Summary

Growing flowers at home is easy and rewarding and as long as you follow the simple guidance in this handy ebook you should achieve some outstanding displays in the garden or else cut for display in the home.
You don't always need to tend a dedicated area in your garden as most plants are quite happy in borders or in containers on balconies or windowsills. Most species will also grow alongside vegetables in a plot.  Follow the tips in this book to help pick the plants and flowers that will ensure success.
Some require a little attention while others will happily last for weeks in a vase. Having flowers on the mantelpiece makes all the difference to a living room, and you shouldn't need a florist to make the most of the plants in your garden.

Leah Day's Goddess Quilts -...

Leah Day

This is the story of Leah Day’s goddess quilts.
Leah’s creative journey began with the birth of her son and the conception of her first goddess quilt in 2007. While making that quilt, she found the vehicle for change and self-discovery she’d been searching for her whole life.
This is Leah’s story of transformation and how each goddess quilt in this series pushed her to become a better woman, wife, mother, and quilter.
This is not a book about any known goddesses from myth, legend, or religion. Leah’s goddess quilts are fantasy self-portraits that represent who she wished she could be and how she wanted to feel.
Exquisitely illustrated with dozens of detailed, full page photographs, quilters, artists, and anyone with an eye for bright color and gorgeous art quilts will find limitless inspiration inside this book.
By focusing on these powerful images through the many months, sometimes multiple years, it took to create each quilt, Leah found the wisdom and courage to change her life, her habits and even her thoughts.
Leah Day’s Goddess Quilts is an artist’s memoir that shows how you too can embrace courage and cultivate gratitude. Leah openly shares her personal struggles with self-criticism, the danger of dwelling on past pain, and how she overcame many obstacles blocking her path.
This is the story of a creative entrepreneur following a childhood dream. A story of success and failure and the struggle to remain humble in an egotistical social media fueled world. This is the story of a wife and mother embracing her creativity and releasing it to the world.
The goddess on the cover is called Release Your Light.
This is the light of your creativity.
It is not a spark or a flickering flame.
It’s an explosion of light more powerful than the sun.
Are you ready to release YOUR light?
