F all is finally here and it is time to  officially prep the yard for winter. It is better to prepare before hand  before it gets too cold! Here are some of the the top yard tasks  you should do before winter: Clean, Weed, and Fertilize Clean out and weed your garden. Turn the soil while it's still easy to work and you'll save yourself a lot of backbreaking labor in the spring.

Greeting from KameLo :) Did you know that KameLo only uses  100% cotton lining in our gloves? Here's a post on the benefits of using cotton fabric. Cotton fabric is breathable and transmits  moisture away from the body. It is absorbent and removes liquid from the skin. Cotton allows you to remain comfortable as you do your activities, keeping moisture from building up between your skin and clothing. Especially with gloves, it is difficult to prevent  perspiration in your hands while you work. That is why we use 100% cotton lining in our gloves to absorb any moisture for the comfort of the worker. Also, since cotton is breathable material that transmits moisture away, it allows comfort to the wearer while on the job. Another benefit of cotton is that  it is strong, tough, and durable. You can rely on it to last a long time. It is easy to wash and care for compared to  other fabrics. KameLo gloves with...

With spring just around the corner, what better way to greet the season than to build your own garden? Here are some basic tips to get you started: 1. Choose a good site. Choose a site where there's enough sun exposure and easy access to water. Make sure you use good soil. As they say, "feed the soil and your plants will take care of themselves." You will need to determine what type of soil you will use and what it needs. (NOTE: vegetable gardening is different from flower gardening, therefore the type of soil you use may vary depending on what you plan on planting in your garden.) 2. Choose your plant.
