Finding Joy in Countryside Living | First Spring Work in the Cottage Garden | Sewing a Curtain

As the first warm days return to the countryside, I spend a quiet spring day between the garden and my cozy kitchen — cooking homemade food, sewing a new curtain, and enjoying the gentle rhythm of simple living. Welcome to a gentle spring day at home. I invite you to share calm countryside moments: caring for the garden after winter, preparing a comforting homemade dinner, and sewing a light kitchen curtain that brings a fresh feeling of spring into the house. 🌿 What you’ll find in this video: Early spring garden work — trimming dry leaves and discovering the first sprouts of tulips, hellebore, and narcissus Sewing a new light kitchen curtain from vintage second-hand fabric — measuring, preparing ruffles, and slowly transforming the kitchen window Cleaning the garden path and placing a bird water bowl in the garden First balcony cleaning after winter — washing windows, doors, and refreshing the space for the new season A cozy homemade dinner in the countryside kitchen — meatball soup with cream cheese and a quick potato bake with mozzarella and salmon Repotting primroses and bringing a fresh spring feeling to the balcony Baking a soft cocoa cake for tomorrow’s breakfast A quiet morning with Murik the cat and a small sewing project made from the last pieces of fabric Finding Joy in Countryside Living | First Spring Work in the Cottage Garden | Sewing a Curtain 🌷 What this vlog is about: This video captures the gentle transition into spring in the countryside — when the garden slowly wakes after winter, when fresh light enters the house, and when small handmade details like a new curtain can change the feeling of a familiar room.
