Those piles of brown and green leaves covering your yard are a constant reminder that task has been on the to-do list for way too long.
As long as there are still leaves in the trees on your property, you need to rake them weekly, if possible. Continue this process up until the first heavy winter storms hit your area. This will help you avoid reseeding your lawn next spring and prevent potential safety hazards caused by wet or frozen leaves.
We have talked a lot about the importance of getting your possessions prepped and ready for winter storage. Learn more about preparing your grill in this post and all your outdoor accessories in this post!
But we don’t want to forget about your lawn care and maintenance needs. Just like with proper storage techniques, a little work now will ensure a stress free spring!
Although the cool weather of fall is one of our favorite times of year, it’s a hint that the cold winds of winter will be blowing through a little too soon!
And, there are important tasks that need to be completed around your house and yard before the cold season starts and the snow and ice start falling.
The beginning of fall brings a ton of great things! From cooler weather, to pumpkin spiced everything and great holidays like Halloween and Thanksgiving, there is a lot to like about the season.
But, one not so fun thing about fall is all those leaves “falling” from the sky! No one wants to spend their weekend raking or spend their money hiring someone else to do it.
Nice spring weather means weekends spent outside soaking up the sun, getting some exercise or just having fun, rather than on the couch. Along with spring cleaning and gardening chores, what else do you have planned for your free time this spring?
Well, at Cook we love a good project and we definitely love making space more efficient. These 4 backyard DIY projects will have your yard looking great and are easy to complete over one weekend.
Having a blooming, beautiful garden starts early in the spring and requires a lot of work. With a little preparation now in the early days of spring, you will be ready for the busy later months and have the prettiest garden on the block!
An early start to the gardening season is the best way to stay prepared! Another smart way to stay organized is with a Cook Garden Shed for all your planting essentials. Learn more about all the great features of our Garden Shed buildings here!
Spring has officially begun yay! We all survived the cold, dark and snowy winter and everyone is now ready to get outside and start having some fun! So soak up the warmer weather by gardening, getting some exercise or just lounging around outside reading a book.
But along with all the fun stuff that comes with spring, there are also some important home maintenance tasks that should be completed now that the temperatures are warming up. Another to-list is probably not putting a smile on your face, but remember that a little elbow grease and minor expense can benefit your home in the long run.
Reusing and repurposing things you already have around your home is a great way to save money and make the more environmental friendly choice. And there are so many items around your house that can be recycled and made new again with a little creative thinking!
If your Cook shed is primarily used to store all your plants, gardening supplies and equipment then here are some creative Pinterest inspired ideas to give you more storage room for little to no cost.
