EBook Bi Carb The Complete Eco Living Guide

Image
  Bicarbonate of soda, or “bicarb,” as most of us call it, is one of those quiet little treasures hiding in the back of almost every pantry. It doesn’t look like much. A simple white powder in a cardboard box. But inside that box is one of the most versatile, affordable, and eco-friendly helpers you can use this in your home and garden. For generations, people have relied on bicarb to clean, freshen, deodorise, soothe, scrub, soften, and even heal. Long before supermarket shelves were filled with brightly coloured bottles and chemical cleaners, families used simple ingredients like vinegar, soap, and bicarb to keep their homes sparkling and their gardens thriving. And now, as more of us look for ways to reduce chemicals, save money, and live a little more naturally, bicarb is making a well-deserved comeback. This is a great product for cleaning your home and other uses. If you want to learn more, check it out here on Amazon

ebook Guardian of the Hive

From the fruits in our orchards to the wild flowers in our parks, bees carry out the quiet, essential work that keeps ecosystems balanced and food production thriving. Yet, modern habitats present growing hazards: broad-spectrum chemicals, loss of native flora, and sterile green lawns. While these challenges are significant, the solution begins right at home. Backyards, balconies, and community patches can serve as safe, vibrant oases. This guide is written to offer straightforward, practical, and factual advice for anyone looking to protect local pollinators without relying on harsh chemicals. By working with nature rather than against it, we can ensure our gardens remain safe sanctuaries for generations of bees to come. Check it out here on Amazon

Ebook Spirits of the West

Image
  The Shadow Knows Anything creepy has always made the hairs on my arms stand straight up. People say we all have to face our fears eventually, and maybe that’s true, though I’m not sure writing this book is the smartest way to do it. I’ve never been the best sleeper, and diving into ghosts, old prisons, haunted towns, and eerie memories probably isn’t going to help. But here I am anyway, stepping straight into the shadows. My earliest brush with fear wasn’t a ghost or a dark room, it was a radio show. As a child, I used to sit with my sister listening to the wireless, and every so often that chilling voice would come through the speaker: “Who knows… the Shadow knows.” Followed by a laugh that curled right into your bones. I will never forget that sound If interested why not check it out HERE on Amazon

Creating Old Craft Memories of Dying Crafts

Image
 Have you ever sat and thought about the different crafts you did as a child that are dying out? On a recent visit to a craft group, I started thinking about different crafts we did as kids. All that came to mind was embroidery, knitting, and then I remembered that we made cushions from old hessian bags. Trying to remember how we did it was the problem.  I had been given an implement years ago and was still not sure how it worked. This was the implement So then I found some hessian and a collection of wool I still had no idea but found a simple picture of a pot plant with a flower in it.  Then the penny dropped. I threaded that thingy above with a strand of wool. Ten started poking it through the hessian, and that is all you do.  The back form loops, and as kids, that was the side we used on the outside of our cushions.  Every loop had to be cut. And yes, we cut them, because mum used to check our work. This was the side where you pushed the thingy through the h...
