Hi there,
My name is Niamh (pronounced neeve) and I have a BSc in Nursing Science. I make videos on simple, natural, healthy living.

I live to the day that all cows are treated with respect, living freely forever
I wish all cows and other animals could be treated well. For those animals that do live freely, it is a wonderful to see.
I live for the day when people stop eating cows, and any other sentient creature
@@ElsieJoy39 me too, its so unthinkable to me to eat animals :(
I just love your videos. Having moved to the Scottish Highlands, I can fully embrace your autumn and winter rituals for the garden and home. Thank you for being so down to earth, kind, and helpful.
I lived 15 years as a tenant in the back of a home of my elderly friend who was a great gardener who taught me a lot. I helped her with worm composting, pruning the raspberries, and kiwis, which stimulated the growth of the kiwis. We'd harvest the veggies in the Fall, rake leaves, etc. She'd later plan her Spring garden and plot it on paper; grew her tomatoes from seed, etc. I had my own patio garden too. My elderly neighbor had to move to assisted care a couple of years ago while I now live in an apartment without a garden of my own, so I vicariously enjoy watching your simple and sustainable living and all the things you do in your beautiful fairyland woods and cottage. Thank you for providing me with the simple pleasure of watching. Jenny
How special to learn from someone. It’s all about passing on the knowledge and skills to all.
It`s great when you can learn from someone. But sometimes you have to live with people with totally different lifestyles and views. They neither can pass on the knowledge nor try to learn something new with you. They are just used to their destructive behaviours towards people and the nature.
Since i'm slowly implementing a sustainable life routines; the one thing i did was go out to gather long pine needles before our snow storm hit. I was able to really focus for the first time in a very long time on how this activity was really making me feel. not just about the activity itself but about life in general. As I did this I was reminded of you and this channel and the video on purposely doing things slowly. As I purposely slowed my activity, I found my self relaxing, smiling, and not wanting my bucket to fill so I could stay in that moment longer. It was almost child like in the feeling. I have struggled my whole life to figure out who I am inside and to help the child there to heal from childhood hurts and become strong. Then one activity of gathering pine needs brings all the videos I've watched and articles I've read start to make sense and these ideas start to feel like home. Thank you for all the video you have put out. keep teaching others how to slowdown and be content with simple things.
I love this and feel the same
Well said Heather. I couldn't agree more. 🌿
It’s true what they say, that we find true happiness in the smallest things. Thank you for sharing ❤️
Ah so beautifully put. I’m so glad to hear. I too endeavour to slow down and be more conscious everyday. It’s a lifetime journey. Aren’t we all so lucky we get to participate.
❤
Thank you for mentioning the cows. They deserve so much better than the lives most of them live in the dairy/meat industry. 💚 They deserve to live free from exploitation x
Here in India we are celebrating Diwali- The festival of lights. However, the celebration is low key due to Pandemic, but people are feeling love, warmth of relationships more this year because they are missing out on that. We don't have a cruel winter here in India in most od the States. So we just enjoy the nip in the air.
Happy Diwali 🪔 🙏🌟
Have a happy celebration! So sweet to connect with someone across the world. While we get ready for a long winter of snow and ice...stay safe💕
In Palm Springs, California, we have no winter, per se. Our winter is like other people's summer. Unlike bears, we hibernate during the summer months, and pine for the coolness of now.

Ah thanks for sharing the quote. I like. 🌱
@@FairylandCottage awwww... thanks for the reply! 😥🤗🤗❤❤
Keyo Beautiful quote! Thank you ❄️📜💫
This is the real world.
Sadly it isn't
I live for the day when all people, and all creatures are treated with respect & living free.💚
Strong winds over Lake Ontario today. A dry run for the winter to come with ice and snow that settles over the land and water. Snow tires for the car and snow shovels now out of the sheds close ro the door. Sun sets at 5pm and we settle in to our cozy homes. City, village or country cottage, there is a scurry of activity as everything settles in for winter.
When the 3 year old twins come over I wander around the yard and pick up sticks and put them in the fire pit. They love to be outside so it gives me 1 day a week of tidying the yard. They also love to help. I hope they learn to love the out doors like like I do.
I love your videos. They are calming
Kids just love to be outside. It’s an adventure for them!
While keeping yourself warm with the twigs you are also supporting Mother Nature by cleaning up the forest - a win win for all. Blessings
Aww I love cows 😍 They are my favourite animals! I always visit them on the field here in south Bavaria - the land of cows. They are such intelligent, kind and trustful animals 💚 I'm going to donate ☺️
Awh they will be so pleased! Thank you so much! Cows are the kindest animals on the planet. They give us everything. 🌱 🐄 🤎
Nature makes people mindful, this is what came to mind while listening to your insight about season change. Sending you a big warm hug❤️
So so true my dear ❤️
The coronavirus pushed me out of the big city and it's probably the best thing that happened to me this past decade. Unfortunately nothing is perfect and finding THE perfect place to live in my new little town didn't happen. So I'm left without a garden, and not living as close to nature as I had intended but I'm happy nonetheless. I spent the last 3 months settling down, cooking, and enjoying my family after living far away from them for 2 decades. I know this new chapter of my life will only get better and I'm looking forward to it!
What a wonderful new chapter for you. Being out of the city will do you all the world of good.
Lovely as always my friend! I made a small donation for the cows. A Vedic farm in Ireland, how awesome is that. I read through their website--the names and celebrations aren't familiar to me, so it's a tad confusing (until I learn more), but you can sense that they are loved, cared for and respected. The plight of cows in factory farms here in the US was one of the main reasons I became a vegetarian/aspiring vegan.
Ah thanks Diane. They will appreciate your donation more than you can know.
Vedic living can be very complicated. So many different ways of doing things but you are right the care and protection is there for the living cow and all beings.
Have a great week my friend
I love how sustainable you are. Watching this video reminds me that everything has a purpose in life such as cow manure and dry twigs.
Absolutely everything.
I'm waiting for Mother Nature to make up her mind. It was 90 today, yesterday and the day before. Tomorrow is upper 80's (all in Fahrenheit). I would love some cold to come our way and rain! I live in the US,
Totally agree, I live in the Georgia. It’s not supposed to be warm in late autumn...
Living in a rural cottage has shaped my life in the most unexpected way... and coming here on UA-cam and seeing you document you journey in the most calming way, makes me realise just how blessed I am .
Sometimes we spend too much time complaining about where we should be and what we should be and we miss out on the beauty in the season that we are.
This is a gentle reminder that nothing is without purpose.🌄
Thank you for being beam of light in my life, you have no idea how much you have inspired me😥🤗💚
It is so sad when the vídeo ends. I could watch it for hours. Great vídeo ❤️ stay safe 🤗
Ah thanks so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
We live in the suburbs of Chicago but we are doing much to same things as you. Planting bulbs, raking leaves for compost, turning compost for spring, collecting as many dead twigs and branches as we can for our 2 wood burning stoves for the winter. You can live simply wherever you are and we've landed in the suburbs so we've tried to do that here. Where you are is much prettier but you don't have to have picturesque to live simply. Thanks for the lovely videos.
So true. You can simply in the city also. It’s all about the attitude
This is my favorite video of all the wonderful videos you have made the dry twigs hit home for me, how simple happiness can be. “Small” things make me so happy and my family thinks I’m so strange but I love it because happiness is so easy for me to access.
“There is no way to happiness, happiness is the way.”
Thanks so much for your time, energy, and knowledge!
Awh thanks! The dry twigs are so symbolic of finding joy in the small things in life.
I love your videos. Always so inspiring. Tidying up for winter provides you twigs and branches for your fire in winter. I love that you are able to use the things that you find. You have a beautiful space to live and play in.
The place u live is a amazing... should be too lucky to live in a house surrounded by greenery
This is the most aesthetic manure I have seen in my life, haha! Jokes aside, I am always happy to see people living and treating other creatures ethically and kindly.
Here in the northern 🇨🇦ian wilderness we do a lot of similar winter prep mostly during the month of October. In a typical winter the snow will cover the ground for 5-6 months so we need to have everything put away and tidied up... otherwise we will not see it under the blanket of the thick white stuff. Great video today Niamh, thank-you for this one. I hope you are doing well during “Lasa gwineekwx” (this is the Gitksan term for the season of the “getting ready for the cold” moon. The Gitksan are the my First Nations neighbours here in northerwestern BC.)
Thank you for sharkng that!
@@Wednesdaywoe1975 No problem... I am happy to shark 🦈 any time... hahaha. But seriously, thank-you for your kind response, I really do appreciate it 💕😃
Lasa gwineekwx
How truly beautiful! Now I know the name of this time. Thank you xxx
Hi Neeve, here in Montreal, Canada we just received our first snow. The day after I finished my winter prep. I finished filming my prep & the very next day it snowed. There's something so special about tucking away & caring for plants before the long slumber. Thank you for the wonderful video.
Hi Niamh, I'm spending as much time outdoors as possible myself, as temperatures here still allow that. We're been preparing for winter though, as cold is coming up soon here as well.
We're preparing the winter garden and piling the logs in the woodshed so that they'll be dry during rainy days and handy to pick. Also, we're stocking up on dry and long lasting food should we have another lockdown like the one you're having in Ireland, and taking care of our animals' shelters, repairing what needs to be repaired or building new ones. It's a very spiritual time, isn't it? So calm, and silent and peaceful and good for reflections upon life's true values. A big hug to you, pretty fairy! 🧡💛💚
So beautiful life style,no stress surrounded by beautiful nature,fresh air,exactly what I want . Thank you so much for your lovely film.God bless and peace grace 💙🧚🏻♂️🦋
Simple and sustainable living = essentialism.
Ah nice! That’s the name!
I just love connecting with nature and the seasons as well. Loved this video and the sustainable message within!
It’s so grounding isn’t it to really feel the seasons. It tells you what you need.
Indeed 😌
Your videos are so restful and beautiful. You have made a good life working in tandem with nature. An important lesson for us all. This fall, I'm using natural resources to enrich the garden beds and have them grow stronger for next spring. I collect great piles of leaves for compost and mulch, and a kind friend shares the "bounty" from her guinea pigs and rabbits. It's satisfying to keep so much out of the waste stream and reuse it instead.
I loved your words about the value of “cow poo and dry sticks”. We completely undervalue simple things like that when we live so far from needing to pay attention to some of the many important aspects of life. Not everyone has the opportunity to live where we can be more simple, yet there are still ways for us to be more in touch with the rhythms of the seasons. I was with my 3rd grade students yesterday in our outdoor classroom. There had been a frost the night before and much of the ground still had not been touched by the sun. I took the children for a brief walk around the campus (practicing our quiet as we walked by many other outdoor classrooms), and we stopped often to marvel at the frost painted on the edges of the leaves that had fallen, or the sparkle of it on the wood chips or the grass. We admired the colors that the leaves are turning and wondered how many leaves would be left when we returned from our one week break. Even taking those ten minutes out of “learning” to observe brings a quiet to the children and a respect and love for what is going on around them (and me). The learning of being in quiet, of respect for nature are far bigger lessons than anything I can bring to them in a formal way.
I saw that same video with that lady that lit up at the talk of dry twigs, and needing them to make her morning tea quickly. I often think of her, especially when making my tea. I love how videos like hers and also your channel stick with us (for some odd reason, I think of that lady and her minimal life and off-grid living daily) and help me make more mindful, minimal, sustainable choices- not always... but one small act at a time.
I donated 40 pounds to the cow initiative- I love this idea and wish the U.S. had something like this.
Really appreciate the calmness of your lovely videos and the time to take to make them both informative and beautiful for the eyes and ears.
Here in the California Sierra near Angels Camp making sure one has enough firewood to get us to April is always a priority. And having a winter garden with root vegetables is a favorite of mine.
Thankfully even with snow as long as the day is sunny I can still line dry the laundry. Love the smell of laundry dried on a clothesline.
Our hens (who die of old age) gives us the manure we need and we are in the process of making sure their coop is well insulated for the colder months.
Lovely set up you have there. Clothes here on line don’t seem to dry in winter cause of the damp but I still put out anyway!!
I have a pony, free poo every day 😁
I grow a pretty extensive veg garden, we always cut the raspberry canes down, almost to ground level every year, I'm just about to open the last jar of raspberry jam from last season, it's my fav thing, preserving our gardens bounty for the winter larder, veg, fruit, herbs.
Being Pagan, living by the seasons is vitally important xxx
Ah pony poo is the best. 😁
I love to make the jams too. My neighbour makes ours for us! I pick and they do all the work 😂
I've wanted to live like this for a while, these videos bring simple joy knowing people still live more traditionally. Keep it up! lots of love.
Hello from tropics ! We do not have resting time here . It’s sunny n warm with tropical rains in between . But staying connected with nature is a choice u can make anywhere. Walk in many gardens , soak in rains , enjoy tree shade on hot days .. I do not have a green thumb n whenever I tried potting some food plants .. I could not save them from storms n heavy rains . So have only a few houseplants . Being a very city girl I feel fascinated with your country living but I think I won’t be able to survive. But u live very well .. n your videos are very calming n inspiring
I just found this channel, and as an English woman living in Florida, I’ve felt so out of my element for so long, but this channel is so immensely calming and informative. It’s inspired me to research the local flora and fauna too 💚
Ah I’m so delighted you found the channel! Yes once you start researching it’s amazing what you find. A herbalist told me that herbs and weeds that we need will grow close by to where we live. How wise is nature! 🍀
Loving the simplicity! I too will be picking sticks today.
I just love watching these simple clips of your life. This must be the way you were brought up, with tradition & knowledge handed down. My grandpa in the states... Charleston, SC always kept a food garden, but I never became interested or learned how to grow... such a missed opportunity. You are rich to know these skills.
Ah thanks! I always wanted to visit Charleston. I visited friends in NC many times but never got down further south.
Yes so true we need to pass down the skills. I didn’t get much from my grandparent from skills it was more from a desire to live as they did. I wish I had more skills. It has been trial and error
I love your videos so much. They are so calming and peaceful. Something I really need these days! You live in such lovely surroundings!! I am in love with Ireland. 🍀
Ah thank you my dear. Ireland is truly beautiful. Hopefully it stays this way for a long long time ☘️
What a marvelous charity. As a long time organic gardener and plant-based eater, I don't know how it can be practiced more widely without an ethical source of manure. I am lucky enough to have my own chickens but that's not an option for many people. Yay for happy cow poo!
We've gained so much, in this morden world!
But we've lost so much too🤔
May the world learn the balance, which is needed. ♥🌎
Gosh!
My raspberry bushes were so abundant this year! 😋
It's the little things, sometimes that means the most😊
Getting really to celebrate, the end of another year. And looking forward to a brand new one, very soon👍
Enjoyed this video so much, thank you for sharing your life we us. 🌹🤗
Your the star, that keeps shining bright! 🎆⭐
Enjoy your weekend!
Love to you from Moira x
My favourite time of the week . Sunday night watching you videos x
Ah thanks xxx
Good afternoon Niamh, I've been looking forward to this video all week and have been watching previous ones. Struck down with the corona virus up here in Keady (Armagh/Monaghan border). Tomorrow is our last day of isolation and thankfully we are starting to feel ourselves again. I'm so looking forward to going for a quiet stroll tomorrow around my local wood, breathe in some fresh air - maybe collect some fallen sticks/twigs (I have a woodburner fire too). Another lovely video. thanks. enjoy your week ahead.
Ah you’re so kind! Glad to hear you are feeling better. Enjoy the fresh air and foraging tomorrow. I’m off tomorrow to find some cones for Christmas x
Another lovely video Niamh. We too have a multi fuel fire to heat the house and have hot water so I completely understand the joy found in dry twigs! Nothing like curling up on a cold evening in front of the fire with a nice drink and some knitting or crochet. My task for this winter is to learn how to knit socks... a practical, warm and therapeutic pastime which will hopefully benefit both of us eventually.
Keep safe and warm, many Blessings to you xXx
Ah thanks Sarah. I only crochet. I wonder can you crochet socks. I could never knit properly.
I’m sitting having my morning tea my meditation time with you thank you .
I know e x a c t l y what video about a woman in Wales you are talking about and I love it. I watch it like once a month just to cheer myself and remind me what my goal is
Haha snap! I watch it when I need a pick me up. There is something special about her and the video has had 3m views in a few months so I think we all can relate to her
I know the Welsh woman you're talking about, I saw her on a channel about tiny houses... she's wonderful, so serene and kind!
Serene and kind is such a great description of her! I found her the same way!
Thank you for showing us yet another glimpse of a beautiful way to live on this precious earth. And thanks to you, I have realized what my Christmas gifts shall be this year: I will donate for the first time ever to local animal refuges that have rescued cows from the slaughterhouse (and follow kindred principles to Kind2Cows). ❤️🐃🐂
Ah how special you are. So much love for all you have
I long to walk around that beautiful place you live in.
What wonderful messages you conveyed in this video. We have an animal farm sanctuary a couple of hours away from me. They are great organizations to donate to and help. I don't heat solely with wood but my cottage gets chilly when it hits -40c here in our Canadian winters so I understand picking twigs and how grateful I am to have them...gifts from Mother Earth when you are cold.
Gosh -40 now that is cold!! Here maybe we hit -2 Haha no comparison!
@@FairylandCottage lol 😁
Beautiful calming video as always. I watched it at 3am before I set off for work. Perfect to put me in a good place for the day!🤗
Thanks
Wow dedication! 🤗❤️
Gosh chopping down the raspberry canes brought me back to that wonderful summer month I had when I went home to spend time with family. I would wake up, walk the dog with mum or dad and pick fresh raspberries off the Bush for breakfast. We'd eat outside and it was glorious.
This year has really shifted my priorities and helped me see what I really NEED to feel sane. Living in a city with no outside space and without markers that make it feel like MY space (I love pink, my flat is blue) has been hard to confront everyday for a year. I miss the companionship of having a pet, I miss home and friends and family. I miss feeling like I've got everything under control (which I never really did anyway).
But I've gained an understanding of how to combat this loneliness or dilute it. The hard part has been forcing myself to implement my self care, recently tho I've been doing nanowrimo and it's been joyful diving into my story again and feeling excited about my characters.
Idk viewing 2020 as an exercise in sanity has been a good way to look at it.
Very interesting way of looking at it. It is true seeing the change of seasons helps ground and keep the body healthy for some reason. Nice that your priorities have changed for you. ...
Just finished preparing our garden for the winter also. Using the same amendments plus a layer of wood chips. All of our wood is ready for winter plus the twigs for fire starting. Seeds are already here for next spring and fruit trees & berry shrubs will be here in late March. Still time to prepare the ground where they will be planted before the freeze. Putting in a tray of enchiladas for our meal then sitting down for some sock knitting.
Ohh I love enchiladas! Sounds like the perfect evening sock knitting!
I get to enjoy autumn vicariously through these videos. We only get a few weeks of it in my part of Canada. It’s fully winter here now.
Wow! You are living my dream XD. I have major anxiety disorder around moving, travelling and I still can't be able to even think about moving to Scotland. But it would be my absolute dream :). So happy for you!!!
A garden doesn't have to go to sleep over winter, there are many seeds that grow happily over winter. My garden is sprouting like mad......onions, cauliflower, garlic, broad beans, winter salad leaves to make but a few. Winter is not a time for rest
Waking up to grey clouds hugging an orange and purple sky was delightful. Waking up to your freshly posted video is just magnificent.
Happy winter dear! ❄️ ☕️ 🌬
Ah thank you for including the videos in your magical morning 🪔 🍵 🤎
@@FairylandCottage thank YOU for the magic you deliver unto US!! 🤍

Thank you so much for your videos🙏
Its always a happy sunday when they pop in❤
I really enjoy your channel. I get excited when you post new videos😀
So peaceful and beautiful!
Hi I absolutely love your videos I'm sure I've said it before but there so calming I'm watching this on a Sunday Morning what a way to start a Sunday the day of rest , or at least it used to be didn't it ? Can you remember when the shops were shut on a Sunday ? Or maybe your too young for that 😀! Sending lots of love and stay safe xx
Haha I remember when I was very young how the shops were closed on a Sunday! I loved it. It never felt right not to have a day of rest. No rest anymore in the world except for now when everyone is forced to stay at home if they have a lockdown.
I love your way of life. enjoying beautiful parts of weather makes me so peaceful. Also makes me gratitude what I have 'NOW' in this congested time. thank you so much from S.Korea.
Ah hello to you in S.Korea! Yes true gratitude is health and well-being
I’ve been cleaning and simplifying my main living area in prep for Christmas. It was lovely to watch your winter prep.
I love the idea of the protected cows manure for the garden! As a vegan, I don't want to use manure from exploited animals so that is an excellent solution!
Yeah it’s wonderful to get from protected cows! So rare though
Oh my favorite UA-camr the effort you put in your videos is worth it. Keep it simple 😍😍😍
Everyday is almost the same in our country Malaysia ...we get plenty of sun and enought rain .I live in a small town but i have everything i need.. i cant grow vegitables or fruit trees that much bcos we stay in teress houses so the most we plant in pots n not many do that bcos we get all vegitables n fruits throughout the year from our supermarkets .we dont have any drastic climet change...but i love to watch your vlog cos its slow living n i just love to see the change of climet n all the peperations needed...
I love it. This is what we lack off living in a City. Thanks for sharing. ❄️❄️❄️❄️💙
Outside work is very good for a work out and it's free and you are doing something meaningful in your yard very satisfying...
your videos and vibe help me get through the hard times. thank you
The day after Labor Day I would forage for twigs and make up as many paper grocery bags of twigs and newspaper to pop into the wood stove. Light the bag and it's off to a warm fire.
Your video puts me in a state of balance
I love your inspiration and your love for the nature ,good luck .
I love your videos. They encourage me to use less and use more of what I got. And they are so peaceful too. Perfect for anxious mind at the evening 🖤
I put my gardens to bed too and also get the chicken coop ready for the cold snowy days
Quite peaceful place. ❤️ Stay safe and blessed.
I read someone's theory that modern forests, in addition to things like controlled burns as the Indigenous Americans did, grew with humans collecting firewood like you are, taking out the fallen dry tinder for our use, and our lack of doing so in the modern world contributes to wildfires being so bad. And it just makes sense. We think we are apart from nature, but we are a part of nature, and we've been interacting with it since the dawn of humans, not just the dawn of the industrial revolution, so of course we impacted things before.
Thank you Fairyland Cottage for a beautiful video. I agree with you we are all connected in some way. I smile when you mention another UA-camr who using twigs. I live in New York - Staten Island and the leaves are red and orange and fall has arrived. I Iove your leaves - so yellowish.
We love the outdoors having all kinds of flower gardens and veggie gardens and bush beds.
Yes my Greatgrandma lived to be all but 100 and she was always active and being outdoors.
Have a blessed day.
Same with mine! They knew!!
Thanks for sharing your journey and tips ! At this season, I actually went back to planting and seeding what I can, since I am in the west south of France 😉 I planted garlic, onion and turnip seeds, and I still have to plant fava bean seeds. This way they should be stronger and give more early in the spring 🙏 we're also gonna prep the soil for the garden next year ! So exciting. I totally relate to the "I would never have thought I'd excited for such things a few years back" but I am now !! 😀 happy automn everyone 🍁🍂
Lovely. Such a beautiful video. I’m getting indoor projects ready for the winter. 💕
It's always so nice to see what you are up to. I agree, being outside in the fresh air is great for the mind and body. Your videos get me thinking and going and I am very grateful for that. Have a lovely week!
Ah thanks Kim! Glad they get you thinking. Have a lovely week too x
Helpful and relaxing video! Thank you so much! When you talked about twigs, I laughed because I feel so happy about twigs, too! We don't have a wood burning fireplace anymore, but we have a fire pit outside. I love to go around and find all the crispy, dry twigs that I can find around our property. So much fun! When I'm not working, I'm crocheting, knitting, baking and reading in a lovely atmosphere of candles and incense and enjoying every moment! *HUGS!*
We've been raking leaves up. Thank you for sharing your daily routine getting ready for Winter.💚
That was next job and then it started raining so couldn’t film 😂
Love your videos so much! Thry help me to slow down , and reconnect with what truly matters. Thank you for your inspiration 💜
I love your videos it’s so calming and relaxing 🙂
Autumn hasn't truly arrived in my part of the world. One week is hot and muggy, then the next is cool and crisp. I'm hoping the weather will settle and we enjoy a bit of autumn before winter settles on us. Love your vids.
Another good video. No winter in my area, I agree with what you said. Doing things that calms our mind, our health and our soul. Preparing for the spring. 🙏
Indeed 🙏
I love watching you garden. It makes me want to get into my garden more🌸🌺 your videos are so peaceful. Thank you❤️ I live in Australia so spring is upon us and the flowers are blooming creating colour everywhere. It's my favourite season.
Wow so weird to hear you are having spring. How amazing is our planet! Yes I must say gardening is special 💕🌱✨🌟
Another wonderful vlog to watch at the end of the day. Brings me so much joy. Thank you Niamh stay warm in winter. 😘❤️👍❄️
Thanks Nikki! 💕🌟✨
This video prompted me look back at my winter preparations. I love this time of year and this season was especially wonderful. Perhaps the shut down caused me to think more appreciatively. I am truly grateful to have discovered you! Cheers!
Ah I’m grateful you found and channel and stayed!
Me encantan tus vídeos, me relajan, me transmiten calma... 🌞
Thank you so much for this wonderful video. In summer time, when I came back to my born village I collect pine cones and little pieces of wood in the forest, so I can light the fireplace when I go there in the coldest times of the year. Understand and accept the importance of the winter as a time of rest for nature, including us, is a very and reconforting thought. Thank very much for your inspiring thoughts and feelings. Have a lovely week!!!
im so inluv with ur lifestyle...country life is the best, there is!!!
It is indeed! It nourishes and heals the soul!!!
Essentiel , respect for the garden Work. Respect pour nos anciens.🇨🇵👋👍
Thank you for a wonderful start to my day! I have been spending my time raking and mulching leaves. I have two bins of what will hopefully become leaf mold someday - getting back into gardening!
I was suppose to be raking the leaves too! Haha but the rain came and we couldn’t film!! Leaf mulch is the best!
I am a silent watcher for a long time now. But today, I thought that I will say something. It's that your videos aren't good.
They're EXTREMELY good!!
I subscribed the moment I started watching. Thank you, you help me a lot ❤
Keep making videos ✨

(Also, I hate people who are like "OmG dOn'T tAlK tO mE i'M sO DePrEsSeD!!!" when that isn't true)
Thank you so much! You are very kind.
I got shocked when you said the videos aren’t good and then there was a gap! 😂🥰

@@FairylandCottage I have a question here -- Because of this pandemic, I'm having to buy a lot of things packed. I want to reuse them, (Make gift pouches out of chips packets? 😂) but my family told me to throw any away any wrappers (even if they have been left alone for about a week) to make sure that everything is properly disinfected. Do you have some tips for this? Thank you!
