a while back, I removed the cover on one of my IKEA chairs and arranged to have two new ones made…

I used the company that did such a great job on the garden chair cushions…

we picked a pretty fabric and then waited… and waited… and waited…

the first piece of fabric that arrived was defective and it took a while to get the replacement, lol…

got the email advising the covers were done and raced over to pick them up…

then it took us quite some time to get the covers on the chairs as it was snug… good that there were muscles in the room, lol…

but they look great… and I am very pleased with the colour;-)…

last week, after aquasize, lunch, and a nap, I got to work in the garden…

first up, all the planter boxes under the deck came out and went into their spots around the deck… will need to add some compost and additional soil in them before too long so they will be ready for plants…

after a break to do some reading, lol, it was on to raking up some of the leaves… wore my new Christmas gardening gloves… not only are they made from recycled material, they are purple and fit nicely…

filled a yardwaste bag with the dead cedar and elm leaves… looks better but will still need a bit of work…

yards…

hadn’t shovelled for a few days so went out on Saturday morning to do the sidewalk so people knew I was alive, lol…

wow… a lot of snow had come down…

besides doing the front sidewalk and a space towards each of the neighbours’ yards for the mail carrier, I also shovel a single path along the driveway to get to the vents for the furnace…

I want to be sure they aren’t plugged with snow, which stops the furnace… not a good look😳…
