Hi – This past weekend the show where you spruced up a garden by adding new flowers and top soil aired. A guest spoke about and showed a cedar oil spray that did not kill beneficial bugs. Please tell me the name of that product.
Thank you, Kat

I have a black labador,with a already fenced yard with lots of trees in my yard and the neigbors so the sun light is almost not excistant, lots of shade and humidity. I hope you can help with my project. Thank YOU, Evelyn Werker

Good morning, Sandra.
Many local craft stores carry stepping stone kits. Please check your local vendors for these items. Thank you for your question and for watching the show.
Could you please tell me how to get the plans for the stepping stones from an August 2009 episode in which Vicki made different stepping stones in shapes and colors. Used a plastic bag, cement and water. Please help. Thanks.
I guess it was Sloan that made the stones. What I wanted was a chnace to print out the intructions. THanks
Good morning, Rhonda.
Below are the instructions for the cement stepping stones. Thank you for your question and for watching the show!
Ingredients:
Cement Molds (can be found at local hardware store or craft store)
Durable Plastic Bag
Strong Strap for Plastic Bag
Cement
Water
Vegetable Spray
Optional: Color Additives
Start by slowly emptying the dry cement into the plastic bag (by keeping it slow, you eliminate the excess dust) and then adding the directed amount of water to the mix in the plastic bag. Close the bag firmly with a strong strap and then mix the cement, water and optional color additives by simply rocking the bag forwards, backwards, and side to side to get a thorough mix. Prep your cement mold by spraying vegetable spray into the empty mold. Next, place the prepped mold onto a level surface (add a sheet of plywood for extra support) and slowly pour the wet cement into the mold. Gently wiggle the mixture around the mold and tap the sides to eliminate extra air bubbles. Let the mix set up over a few days before placing it into your garden and wait a week before walking on the stones.
Good morning, Kat.
