Welcome to The Tartan Topiary- On this channel I preview books on gardening, interior design and the topics of collecting. I enjoy collecting items based on beauty, function and history. In our world today it is always nice to add beauty and calm to the environment in which one lives. Small things can often bring joy. Let's find them together. If there is a book you would like for me to preview or review, please mention it in the comments including the title and the author. The inspirational values of a book are endless. All of the books that I review have provided inspiration to me in my daily life. I try to share these moments and I hope you enjoy them.

Hi Mary, I was drooling over Defining Chic! Stunning contents. I'll be watching this one over and over. Fun trip to the prettiest jail ever, featuring Daniel. Hi Daniel! You've got a seriously talented wife! Happy 4th, y'all!
I'd be telling that ghost to shove over, so I could sit in that lovely chair, and there isn't much I wouldn't do to gain possession of that gorgeous plinth in the dining room. You're an excellent tour guide, and I love how you linger over details in each room, giving us a vivid sense of being there. I look forward to "the gardens and the gallows," an excellent title for a book. Thanks for always brightening my Friday evenings.
Hi Mary, that red or is it cinnabar, I can't tell. It us lovely. Isn't it wonderful that so many of us love design of homes, gardens and fashion. It all feeds our souls somehow. Thanks again Mary. See you next time. Joy
I always enjoy your book selections, this was especially interesting. I love 💕 Historical Home tours, thank you so much for taking us along and I’m looking forward to the gardens next week.
Hello Mary, Love this type of designer...."practical" I love a home tour...especially historical homes! Thank you for taking us along and I look forward to next week! Have a good week regards to Dan and I will see you again! Hugs! :)
Hi Mary ! I just love seeing historical homes and all the furniture etc. just all of the details! have you shared the history and tour of your home Mary ?? Love the design book , I think they like the colors of blue and green me too !! Helps me decide on a new sofa color !! Thanks friend !! have a Happy 4th of July and see you next Friday ! Blessings Paula
Oh Mary, I have to say that as much as I enjoyed discovering a new design book, the tour you took is on most certainly took center stage. There is something so special about going back in history. To learn about those that came before us I believe enriches our lives. Thank you so much for this wonderfull video. 😊
Hi Mary. I really enjoyed the book review and will probably be adding to my collection. Tour: Hard to wrap my head around something built in the 1700's. The home is intriguing and some parts very sad. One question, what was the lovely small crystal piece on the table sitting in a silk type case (like a pair of glasses but larger)? I thought it was unusual and had not seen anything like this. Was it for perfume? I also have a request...will you tell me how you added the colorful fabric in the beginning of each video when you have coffee/cookies? I love the cheerfulness of this and have an almost exact butler pantry like this. Is there a video showing how you did this? Please share. I so enjoy your talents and magic each Friday ~ have a great 4th of July and will see you for sure on the next one. 😍
Lovelovelove Daniel and his humor! Mary, you two are a great couple. Love all your reviews and have encouraged my friends to watch your channel. Cheers and bravo! ❤
I just LOVE seeing your husband on this show…..he is getting more handsome because he is so sweet to you…true love….love the way he laughs…hugs carolyn from Columbus GA…now why did you hit that precious man….you got him drunk….toooo funny
The Southern Homes===how beautiful were the ones you filmed. There's nothing like them. All the modern things, etc., don't hold a candle to these absolutely wonderful places like both my grandmothers enjoyed being part of. Thank you for loving them, too.
Mary, it's so pleasant to hear your voice on your program. The book are just wonderful and I want all of them. Where is the beach with all those shells? Wow!! Thank you.
Sorry that I arrived late to the party, but I brought you a gift, I am a subbie. Happy Belated 2nd Anniversary Congratulations! The Tartan Topiary channels will be a huge success for many years to come. I thank you and Daniel for the laughter and fun.
Thank you both for another drinks lesson which is fantastic. I needed a good laugh today! Congratulations on your two years. I enjoy the book segment and all the other content you make which has gotten better and better over time. Keep up the hard work and I’ll keep watching and looking forward to the next episode.
I loved this episode, esp. the cocktail mixing. I think you and Daniel were terrific. I usually don’t bother my husband with trying to show him anything on You Tube, he likes different stuff than I watch; but I had to show him the cocktail part. He loved it too. Thank you for giving me fun times on You Tube with you and Daniel. There is nothing clever on TV anymore. Congratulations on your second anniversary with your videos. Keep it up, please
How fun are you two! When I have a little too much wine, I tell my husband, "Oh Howard, I just have a little glow." Our favorite quote from Happy Days TV Show. 😂 Enjoyed the book review too. Happy two years 🎉
I wish I could push the thumbs up button 1000 times! You guys remind me of Laurel and Hardy. But 10 times better. Daniel takes the cake. I was just waiting for him to run around the yard and take a dive in the pool lol I love you guys. You’re such a great entertainment for a relaxing evening. Congratulations on two years on RU-vid.
I’m very upset! Very very upset! That I was not invited to the party 🎉🎉🎉 .. I can stop laughing 😂😂.. Oye ! I need a Mule! Cheers 🍻 Very fun .. looking forward to more ..
As I commented the first time you and Daniel prepared cocktails a number of months ago, from the WS cards, you two are hysterical and should do these drinks as a series. You two make me laugh so hard I am crying laughing. So, tears from humor, so, so funny. PS - Mary, I love your book reviews and have purchased probably most of, close to all you have reviewed. So many great books. Thank you for your fabulous and funny, channel.
I just purchased this book a month ago. I love coffee table books. It has become my new hobby collecting these books. So, when your channel popped up I knew I was going to love it.
