Comments: We use this device to move large potted plants, but I'm sure I'll find more uses for it. In a household run by two humans with bad backs (and cats who don't seem inclined to help with lifting), the Pot Lifter is a useful tool.

Comments: After the problems I had last year I vowed I would buy it this year and give it a try. WOW. I can leave fruit out and it takes care of the flies that want to hang around.

This
Citronella Rope Candle
is
the perfect candle for a delightful garden soirée.
Every guest is sure to admire this unusual candle. But it's more than a conversation piece since the wax coil contains 6% citronella oil, about twice the power found in most citronella candles. The thin coil ensures that all the wax is burned, and none goes to waste. Burns for approximately 95 hours.
☺☺☺☺☺ Pretty ... And they work!

This
odorless
Green Stoneware Compost Crock
adds style to your kitchen! No one will guess this handsome crock
is collecting food scraps for composting, so you can keep it right on the
kitchen counter. An activated charcoal filter in the lid traps odors, and
it's dishwasher-safe, too. Made of glazed ceramic, the crock comes with 2
filters that last up to two months each. Generous one-gallon capacity.
☺☺☺☺☺ Great product

From: Philadelphia
Comments: The crock looks just like the photo and blends in nicely on our counter without screaming "compost!" The first charcoal filter I used (fits under the lid) got wet and moldy, so I am using none right now and there is no smell. don't know if the filters always get moldy or if it was just my cleaning the top and wetting it. I have loosely drapped a bit of plastic wrap over the top (which now has tiny open holes) to keep away fruit flies just in case. I will reinsert another filter; they are not especially expensive, I'm just testing without them until the weather gets very hot.

This
Blossom Rain Gauge
is
cute and practical! There's a busy bee hovering over this daisy, and his job
is about collecting rain, not honey. Attached to a natural cork float, he
rises a little higher with each passing shower. A charming and functional
accent for the garden and a hit with the kids. Hand-painted steel with a
powder-coated steel stake. Tracks up to 4" of rainfall in 1/2" increments to
make it easy to tell if you need to water your garden or not!

This
English Rain Barrel
is
a beautiful yet efficient way to collect rainwater. In England,
antique "dollies" or wash tubs have found a new purpose: collecting
rainwater for the garden. This version has the charming design details of
the original, including distinctive ribs that add strength as well as
character. Plus, added features to make it easier to collect and use free
rainwater.

Comments: My english rain barrel arrive promptly. I ordered the downspout diverter, which was shipped separately, so I had to wait to set it up. It arrived just in time for a good shower and it performed wonderfully. My only recommendation is to test the hose connection before the barrel is full of rain water as mine didn't seal well at first. I added one of the included hose valves, and it works great now.
☺☺☺☺☺ We love this!!
