We've had a backyard garden for several years now, in one or both of our raised beds.  The beds have been torn down, moved, rebuilt and we've tried all sorts of different methods to keep tomato plants up, keep weeds down, and basically not make a stinking mess of...

Cool and Breezy Cabochon Necklace

While I had all my jewelry supplies spread out on the dining table, I looked around and decided to make a cool and breezy summer necklace, with just enough of a hint of the beach to make me want to head for the shore.  Not that there is a shore close by for me to go...

Cluster Earrings

Cluster Earrings

This may be one of the quickest projects I've ever done.  I think I completed it while waiting for the hubster to check his hair and put on his shoes before we left the house to run errands, so yeah, maybe 5 minutes. Supplies beads head pins fish hook earring wires...
