New Snow, New Merch, and New YouTube Rules! Garden Answer polkadottedpolak: Laura, I think you should make friends with a scenic artist. That's what I do for a living. Scenic artists create scenery for live theatre (like me, commercials, film, etc. We have a gazillion tricks up our sleeves for projects like those windows. If I were making those windows for a set at my theatre, for example, I would cut them out of plywood (it comes in varying thicknesses. the thicker, the heavier, stretch a material over the back like clear plastic shower curtain, and shine a light through the back. I'm actually about to design a trio of giant faux stained glass windows for a show. Contact your local community theatre. people like us love to talk about what we do. I must say, though, that even though you have no scenic art training, those windows are gorgeous!

Laura one of the things I love and admire about you is how real you are. You trying to describe the drafting table but not knowing if you are correct and not seeming to care is so awesome.
So many people think that they have to be perfect and if they don't know something they may get upset etc. You are real and you are ok not knowing stuff and admitting it. That really is not the norm anymore. Thank you for being you. You and Aaron are such a beautiful pair. Benjamin has grown so much since this video and your baby girl is due to arrive in less than 4 weeks. So exciting. Not to mention you have grown so much and are doing so many changes due to the growth it blows my mind.

Just found your site a few weeks back! Why it never popped up in recommendations before, IKN, as many garden and plant videos I have watched over the many years. Binge watching because you are amazing, along with all your family. I totally understand about going solo. Takes too long trying to get your vision of a project across to someone else. Working with your parents and sister as you said, is easier. Well you've been doing it all your life. Off to another video.

I am the same exact way about executing something I created in my head. I am so detail oriented that I would just be micro managing everyone anyway. Its hard for someone else to see what your vision is and its faster to just do it yourself. Its different if you are teaching someone or teaching a child. Then you just go slower, have lower expectations because they are learning and mistakes are part of the process. Not so for something you are putting your name on.

Hi! First, may your Christmas be blessed and magical this year, especially with baby boy!
I was wondering, I have beautiful Lilies, ( tiger maybe) they are supposed to be double layer but they are actually 4 layers! Of course they multiply and mine desperately need to be thinned and I want to transplant, can you please tell me when the best time is to thin and transplant my bulbs? Thank you, Be Blessed!

Laura, love your Monday videos where you answer Qs and do a recap. I love the beanie Benjamin was wearing, I want to get one or similar for my grand babies. May I ask where you got it? Love to see babies with the sweaters or beanies with ears attached. By the way, I work better Solo too, but Ive done some projects with my daughters, son, my grand babies, and my son in law and daughter in law.

I love your cutting garden as well as the formal garden. Throughout my life, I have planted almost every plant I have seen on your show, yarrow, galardia, black eyed Susan, etc. My son also helped me when he was the same age as Benjamin. The only problem I have every year is that something is eating my Supertunia flowers. HELP.

I have had the female side of Dramm Quick Connects fail. The little balls stop retracting. We have been using Dramm Quick Connects for at least 30 years and they are pretty reliable. However, I sure would like to know how to fix the ones that fail. I even wrote to Dramm and asked how but they never responded.

Youre liked no matter what! Everything about you has inspired all of your followers. I prefer to work solo & did for a lot of years. Now that Im older & have to ask for help its SO hard not to cringe if somethings not the way I would have. Keep doing what you love. it shows through in everything you do!

I'm over here laughing about you not wanting to worry about other people's feelings.
When you just wanna get things done, I get it! AND, I hate when someone has done it Not to the standards you wanted, or how you wanted it to look and you end up redoing it anyway. Frustrating!
I'm the same way.
