I'm a maker and gardener who moved from the UK to Japan!

I hope you enjoy my videos. This channel began as a project to help keep the winter blues away by sharing some elements from my life as a textiles artist and attempted solarpunk. I make videos about gardening, textiles, and my experiences.

I make an effort to have edited accurate subtitles on my regular videos within a week of uploading. Please be patient.

You can find more of my work on my Instagram account: @rumade_this

Flavours in the garden- wild garlic by the fire pit, and rocket in the greenhouse

You might have seen my short a couple of weeks ago showing some of the spring flowers in bloom in the Royal Parks. Well, I strolled around the edge of St James park today and looks like everything is just bursting into life 😁

Get out in the sunshine while you can!

My "how to install stepping stones" video is my top video in terms of views. Here's the stones a couple of years later! The grass will eventually start to spread over the stones, so it's time for a scrape back.

I'm no longer living with my parents and their wonderful outdoor space- nothing bad! I got married and naturally moved out. This won't be the end of my channel or my gardening journey though, so please stand by 😊

Photo is some potatoes my mum pulled up today while weeding after picking raspberries. The garden still gives xxx

How vibrant is this red chard?! Gorgeous! The leaves have quite a lot of slug damage so I'm going to fry up the stems with some homegrown peas and garlic ❤

Grass in deep mud? Sort of! I'm running an experiment seeing if I can grow rice in a bathtub turned into a paddy field... hope it works!

Hello beloved fans. Probably no long form video this week as I've just changed jobs and have a bunch of spring cleaning to do too
As you can see, I'm thrilled
