Mason Jar Vase - With Fabric Flowers

Using scraps from a table runner that I had whipped up, I created a charming and sweet vase to act as our centerpiece. I used tweed (it looks rustic, much like its friend - burlap) to ...»
wrap around the vase and to create the little rosettes. I love how it turned out!

ANTS? Easy, Safe Solution!

An exterminator told my friend that when you begin to see ants, they are the scouts. Stop these and you won't have ants. My son discovered that if you spray them with Windex (or any other glass cleaner), they are exterminated. Keep after it for a while and you won't have ants. We have used this for years. 2 days ago our humming bird feeder leaked onto the concrete front porch...the liquid got down in the crack between brick and concrete so there was not way to flush it out. Ants ...»
appeared quickly, I sprayed them with Windex. Watched through the day and kept spraying them. Now ant free! Safe for kids, pets and environment! It is worth a try before you spend hundreds.

  • Now my baskets look like treasured family hierlooms that have been around for decades.
  • These are simple "Indian Style" baskets from an import store.
  • I used 2 different stains, a light one (gunstock) and a darker one (Jacobean)...they could be any colors that you might have on hand.
  • I started with the Gunstock stain to darken all my basket area...it made the most impact on the cream areas.
  • Be sure to wear protective rubber gloves...or you will have stained finger tips. Be sure to work the stain into the cracks of the weave. These dry baskets will soak up quite a bit of stain in the begining. 1
  • After the first stain dried, I skimmed the surface with the darker, Jacobean stain.
  • Here's a close-up of how the darker stain looks a little smudged and time-worn.
  • Perfect place to drop the remotes in our den.

Aging "New" Indian Baskets to Look Old

I'm a fanatic for vintage Indian baskets...but who can afford them? I find similar baskets made in Mexico and India at import shops almost daily, so I thought I'd try my hand at making ...»
them "look" like the vintage ones. I started with 2 colors of wood stain, and applied each to created a layered/aged look. Now I'm passing this VERY easy process on to y'all.
