    There’s always a sense of calm around your video. A sense of quiet contemplation.
    The vanity unit looks so good, as you say it works so well!
    The elder should provide plenty of flowers for the bees, or elder flower champagne! The berries make a great syrup for treating sore throats and a tonic for shortening the length of a cold. Plus a very acceptable elderflower wine. Any left over the birds will relish, though make sure you have no washing on the line as the result is stained washing. If you follow my thoughts!
    Hopefully the snow doesn’t hang around too long, just when we all thought spring was just around the corner. Have a good week, look forward to next weeks episode.❤

    What a wonderful video this week. It’s nice to see thing’s beginning to bloom. Then the blossoms peeking out of the snow.
    The bathroom vanity is perfect! And the way you set up the big stone container by the steps with the old wine bottles is lovely.
    I imagine Velvet will return with better weather cat’s know where there is good food. And if he’s a tomcat he will always wander looking for females.

I took a big bottle and filled it with little twinkle lights and used it on the floor in the corner of a room. About the bathroom table...yes, when you least expect it!! That's when the Universe provides. 😊

    You are working your way into Velluto's heart. The fact that he washes his face in front of you shows he is fairly relaxed. Great to see. That new sitting corner area, I can just imagine Velluto on your lap, enjoying that break with you. Do you have a plan for so many Elderflower plants? I know cordial and wine can be made from them. You work well as a team, The bathroom vanity is a case in point. Being so high, I am sure winter will drag out for you a bit longer. Mind you Martijn Doolaard lives a bit higher again. Have you seen his vlog? He is renovating two old stone cabins somewhere in the mountains of Italy. Best wishes.

    • @storiesfromthecascina

    Some of that straw from horse barn clean out would make excellent mulch for you young hedge plants and even the lilacs you planted. it isn't too late to retrieve some of it from compost bins to use as mulch.... old cardboard boxes can be cut down and shaped for mulching hedge row plants to keep moisture in, prevent evaporation and weed growth near the tender seedlings. Cut cardboard into disks or squares, make a slit to center with small area in center removed of cardboard to allow seedling stems to protrude.. If you do 2 such mulch discs you can arrange for slits to not overlap, thus preventing weeds from growing too close to new seedlings. It will probably take a growing season for cardboard to rot down, which allows a nice period of time for the tender seedlings to become established. The cardboard will also shade root area against extreme heat in your hot dry summers to promote development.

    Spring is still fighting winter, but warm days are getting closer. The washbasin cabinet went perfectly, you created a very nice piece of furniture from an unattractive red one. I haven't caught up with all the episodes so I don't know if that's your cat? If not and he comes back a good method for friendship is food (he already has that) and play, just a twig with a string or ribbon tied to it and the cat will start to get interested and slowly play( I have 7 cats, rescued from homelessness and every one of them loves play). I hope that nothing bad will happen to the cat from martens, foxes, birds of prey and stray dogs, because the cat is very cute and you can see that it feels safe with you otherwise it would not roam so freely. See you next week.

    Further on great progress as usual and yours determination and patience to get things done inn your one way and time.
    decorating the outside space corner by the stone trap was exclusive with the wine baloons and the table made from the finding in the old barn.
    the Bathroom table Bertus did remake to fitt beneath he bath roomsink was well executed,Well-done👍🏻🛠 you.see you at the next ep🇮🇹.Greetings.Hubertus 🙏🏻🇳🇱🇳🇴🍀👍🏻☮🇮🇹

    Hi Isis and Bertus, I meant to comment on last weeks thumbnail! I loved it! I wondered immediately if you would try to work in “Girl with a Pearl Earring“? That would be funny. Maybe a visit to a mercatina? (Sp?) looking for pearl earrings! Also worth mentioning is the child’s straw/cane chair; it could be restrung to hold cane or straw baskets? Your new outdoor sitting area is very cool. I thought the big tub was for a pot plant at first, but do prefer the table. A beautiful breakfast spot in the summer. Keep cosy in that snow, regards Susan.

      dankjewel! relatief gezien valt het mee 😅 we hebben huizen bekeken waar heeeel veel meer werk aan was. langs de andere kant: maar goed ook want anders viel er hier niet zoveel te delen 😉

    Love your stories, but unfortunately it's not usually possible to read your WHITE subtitles. Any chance of using a font with black out lines? 😊😊

    great shot of the salamander in the basement; it's an ecological project as well, isn't it?

      we enjoy taking care of everything that grows and lives around us - plants and animals. we don't have a very defined ecological project plan, but we are mindful of ecology and are inspired by concepts/practices like permaculture, regenerative farming and rewilding.

    I wonder if an Italian cat understands Dutch? I wonder the same thing about birds. If Danish bird meets a French bird of the same species, do they understand each other?😊

    At 6:13, I grew up using those ground cylinder jars for making sauerkraut or brandied fruit...are they intended for the same use in Europe?

    • @storiesfromthecascina
      @storiesfromthecascina  8 місяців тому

      I suspect they were for brandied fruit, but might have been used for sauerkraut too (not sure if that's a thing in the northern parts of Italy - I haven't yet seen in anywhere). I'd have to ask some of the older people in the village one time.

    Op de steen heeft dit teken eventueel te maken met Che Guevara Peace sign? En hippies gebruikten dit teken ook voor vrede. Supermooi huis en creatieve mensen zijn jullie, heerlijk. Ik ben al een tijdje jullie filmpjes aan het kijken en ik hou er wel van 👍👍 mooi is het tafeltje geworden en de omgeving prachtig!

      Hi Michelle! Dat was inderdaad ook onze allereerste associatie, maar deze steen is een stuk ouder dan che guevara en de hippie-beweging. Het blijkt gewoon 1 van de mogelijke patronen waarin de afwateringskanaaltjes voor druivenpers stenen werden gemaakt. Een paar weken geleden zagen we een bijna identiek exemplaar liggen bij een brocante winkel in de buurt :-) Veel plezier met kijken!
