Green Halloween


Good morning,
Every year when we get the gardens ready for winter I try to use as much as what still looks good and bring it inside. My two basil plants did quite well this year and I could have made pesto, but quite honestly, didn't feel like it, so instead I made a fresh centerpiece. I used a pumpkin cookie jar I had and colored the water orange and added the basil. Looks festive and smells AWESOME! I guess I still could make pesto as long as the basil stays fresh. More to share from the garden next time! Happy, happy week!

Fiber Art




Good morning friends,
It is amazing what you can find on the internet and all the talent people have been blessed with. I recently had the opportunity to be included in a very cool blog about fiber art called Beading Arts. Cyndi Lavin wrote a nice piece about what I call costume jewelry. (I think I prefer the term "fiber art" better, don't you!) Here is the link - http://www.beading-arts.com/2010/09/fiber-artist-tina-wick.html
Many thanks Cyndi! Happy, happy week!

Oh so empty!



Good morning all,
My post today is about getting every last bit of cream from your bottles. I cut them open to expose the interior and the cream/lotion still left inside. I use the bottle then as a vase. You can't see it, but under the mitten is the Eucerin bottle. You can also cover them in cloth or wallpaper. Need to know more? Feel free to contact me any time! Happy, happy Labor Day!
