    Thank You AlwyN 😊Maybe you could have fairies on the cover of your lovely garden Grimoire.💕

    I am a garden witch. Nothing puts you in touch with the goddess as much as growing a beautiful garden. You become a true part of the life of the plants. One of the hardest lessons is how the balance of nature is so vital to your garden. If things go out of balance you notice pests and disease and too many weeds. Keep the environment healthy. Make compost and feed the soil, attract birds who eat the overgrowth of pests and put things in places they will thrive. Simple remedies work best like the copper strips to stop the snails eating soft shoots. So excited to see your new garden.

    I’ve had a terribly stressful evening and therefore it’s been difficult to fall asleep. I decided to light some candles, make a special drink, and watch the newest Alwyn Oak video to help me relax. Perfect. Thank you, thank you, sincerely THANK YOU! Seeing the enchanted wood has helped me relax and you’ve inspired more ways for me to be creative which in turn, helps me heal. We are friends who haven’t met yet! Many many blessings to you Alwyn! 🌺🌸🌼🌻🌳🌿☘️🍀🌱

    For the front cover of your book, how about a fairy sitting on a mushroom in moon light. The shed...paint it lilac which
    is a great colour against the greenery. A pale shade of lilac. Grow Honeysuckle over your arch, bees and butterflies
    love this climber. I have it in my garden which the pigeons like to eat from!! My front garden is a woodland garden
    which my son made 4 years ago. It was all concrete when I moved here. I don't think the neighbours get the
    woodland garden, they all have perfect lawns!! At the back with the space you do not know what to do with, how about
    a couple of bug/bee hotels? Nail them to the fence. Loved this video, thank you.

Spring had spring here in southern California 🌻 we have a few cool days burr but I'm dedicating myself to fix the garden. Make room for faires. There is. Red hummingbird who I believe is my mom as my spirit guide.ill make sure to make sugar water n seeds for the squirrels, raccoons n opossum. Of course the birds too. Your book is absolutely beautiful.

The catkins on the “filberts” are providing for our native bees. Waiting for the “dead nettle” to bloom and I’ll plant “English peas”. Hurray spring.

    I am starting my journey on the green witch path. I loved your video! I send you a hug from Colombia which is in my heart, but I'm living in Japan. I do not why but, I have a smile in my face and feel like crying... I have been here for four years and besides working, loneliness is what my live has turned into here..... but just recently I stopped looking outside where the solitude is wild and strong and started to see inside myself, to remember how I love nature, how much I love to draw, to listen birds and even try to replay them, to go and see how plants are growing and how eager I was to see a clear sky and wake up early to see the sun covering the wet grass...all those memories are from my childhood, and my grandmother 's spiritual life comes to my mind... and I feel that I want to follow that path as well, which is filling with joyce that solitude that I thought I did not want to have, but that I appreciate so much right now.
    Gracias desde el fondo de mi corazón por este video tan bello!

    Another beautiful inspiring video full of creative works. It’s got my mind going now, was thinking of ideas for my garden. I have to plan mine around my dog who likes to eat everything I touch in the garden but I still want it to look magical 🧙🏽‍♀️. For those who think fairy’s are bad, it’s not true. The unseelie are bad fairy’s who have not forgiven the humans for what happen so we leave them alone and they leave us alone. The fairy’s who have forgiven the humans and have agreed to work with us again, you can call on them and they will be there. They are there anyway if you are of a magical nature, sat watching what your doing waiting for you to invite them. Live in balance 💕

You could make your book cover with ivy and have some hanging so you have to push it aside where behind are mushrooms and fairies having a party together. The ivy doesn't need to be real leaves, maybe make them from green material or paper. It would be like a portal effect. Blessings.

    Happy nearly Spring!!! 🦋🌷🦋
    I have been enjoying this channel for a while now. It's so much fun to tag along on your adventures into the Enchanted Woods.
    When I was a child I loved the tadpoles in the stream running through our backyard. It was so sweet & thoughtful of you to save those Lil ones! 🐸
    What about a couple of large outdoor area rugs to cover the fake grass?
    I also ordered several of your reading suggestions and can't wait to learn more about different natare & herbs magical properties. Thank you for those hints! Planning a garden of my own to begin planting next month and it will now include what I have learned so far. It will now definitely include white "bluebells" also know as wood hyacinth. So pretty!
    Looking forward to watching your plan unfold. Say hello to the fairies for us! I would offer them tea & scones.

    Hi Alwyn, your design looks wonderful, lots of beautiful colours, textures and scents. I was also pleased to see the forest stood strong against the storms and today I was rewarded by the sight of red butterflies at the healing trail; I think that was a sign that everything is alright🦋

    • @AlwynOak
      @AlwynOak  2 роки тому

      Hi! Yes I like to think butterfly's are a good sign too! I was very worried about trees coming down especially in my garden and on my car!!! But luckily I haven't seen many down in the woods at all!! They seem to have all protected each other! Hope you are well 😊

    Awww lovely book Alwyn - its inspiring me to think about what I want to plant this spring. We moved into a new build house last autumn and we have our pots but otherwise we need to start from scratch. It's exciting. I've actually just posted a video on my channel where I discuss this (it's my how I make a mullein salve video) but I did find two baneful plants growing wildly in our garden - wild lettuce and black nightshade, and worked with the plant spirits a bit. It's been fascinating and rather alarming too. Because we have two little ones and animals, we will be removing them from the garden but they are so wonderfully witchy! I'm planting some mugwort first I think and then lots of culinary herbs and then some trees. But I need a plan. Thank you for the inspiration 🙏

    Such a beautiful video Alwyn, this one really resonated with me! As a forest photographer, my heart will always lie within the forest, and I strive to make my home and garden reflect that. As for the corner next to the shed, maybe a tiered shelving unit would be nice, so you can display more pots for herbs and flowers and make use of the vertical space that way! I can’t wait to see what you will do with the garden! Thank you for another lovely video. These make my week. ❤️🪴🌷☀️
