What’s Better Than a “Hot Stuff” Apron?
When holidays and special occasions roll around, there’s really only one way to go when you’re searching for that “just right” gift for your Grill Master. Grill-related gifts abound, but it can be a challenge to sift through them all. Instead of that selection of internationally inspired barbecue sauces or spice rubs that your Grill Master may or may not ever use, and instead of the amusing apron that reads “Hot Stuff!”, consider choosing a gift that is not only useful and practical, but that would be appreciated by even the most seasoned Grill Master.
The one thing that every Grill Master needs are grilling tools, and well-made grilling tools make a welcome gift. Choosing a high quality grilling tool set containing a variety of tools that are built to last will help your Grill Master take his or her grilling skills to the next level. Don’t be surprised, though, if you’re feeling a little selfish about giving a gift such as this — it’s natural to hope for the opportunity to taste some deliciously grilled specialties that your Grill Master will create using the new tools. What a scrumptious way to say thank you!
Composting Fall Leaves
The leaves are changing and falling to the ground at a rapid pace. It makes for a beautiful time of year, but also a mess on your lawn. Why not get rid of those falling leaves in a way that is great for landscaping in multiple ways. Compost bins are perfect for recycling those fall leaves into something that is actually GOOD for your lawn. Add the leaves, along with household food scraps, to your compost bin and it will be rapidly decomposed, creating some of the richest and most natural soil you have ever seen. It can then be returned to your lawn and garden, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers. Pine needles, grass clippings, kitchen waste, and even paper towels can also be added to your compost bin. Do something great for your lawn, your family, and your environment. You will get so much enjoyment in realizing that you are reducing your waste by turning it into a useful resource.
A Spooktacular Solution for Landscape Lighting
How do you keep the walkways to your front door safe and well lighted, especially on spooky nights like Halloween? Cute little ghosts and goblins will be more likely to come looking for tricks and treats if they can see cle
arly how to reach your porch. There are any number of holiday-themed lighting options that would work for lighting the way, but if Halloween lights are only used for Halloween, what will you do for landscape lighting the rest of the year?
Patio Lanterns offer a different approach to landscape lighting than traditional path lights or garden lights. Reminiscent of the decorative street lamps found in Paris and other European cities, patio lanterns bring old-world charm to a patio, deck, or walkway. They dress up a home’s landscape much more effectively than standard path lights or garden lights, and they are easy to decorate from season to season.
Enjoy the Soothing Sounds of Indoor Waterfalls
This can be a stressful time of year. Children in school with constant homework, busy days and nights, and Christmas right around the corner all lead to added anxiety for most adults. When you do get to enjoy your time at home, why not make it as peaceful and tranquil as possible? An indoor water fall is the perfect addition to your home to make that peace and tranquility possible. Listening to the gentle sound of flowing water is a soothing way to unwind from the stresses of everyday life. Unlike sound machines, which have become popular in recent years, indoor waterfalls give you both sound AND sight features that guide you toward your ultimate goal of rest and relaxation. You can stimulate your senses by running your finger tips under the cool water or change the sound of the waterfall by rearranging rocks in the basin or by adding new elements, such as seashells or small pieces of wood, along the water’s path. Whether you choose a small table top piece or a wall mounted fountain that is beautiful enough to work as a piece of art, you will get to come home to the relaxing sounds of nature year round – no babbling brooks required!
