RECYCLING



Re-making would be a better term for making something new out of something old. I love heavy crocheted lace but not the price so it is fun to check out our local thrift stores for someone elses "junk" so it can become my "treasure". These curtains were re-made from a queen size bed ruffle and cost just a couple dollars because it had accidently been decorated with a splotch of blue paint. There is enough fabric left from the flat center section to make 2 nice pillowcases as well. Now you try it!

So Much To Learn About This Big World!



A walk is always more fun with a little person...they find great enjoyment in small things like a shoe falling to the ground or a pretty purple flower.....and yes, it did almost make it into her mouth in the next split second......isn't that how you REALLY enjoy something at this age? I believe this abundant wild flower is called "Heal-All" and it is edible and medicinal so it was safe in any case....eaten or enjoyed=)
