  • Bottle Trees 1

I am wondering if any of you have bottle trees in your yard?

This one is manmade, but I have seen bottles put on live tree branches. I am thinking of doing that with one of our trees and wondered if anyone has suggestions that has one.

My First Slipcover

I made this slipcover from my dear mother-in-law's chenille bedspread. It brings back such special memories of a very sweet lady and it is so easy to just throw it in the washer and dryer.

    in my cooking. I'm always making lotions or such for someone in the family...so I make use of them for that...but certainly they would make cute little vitamin jars as well... also a cardboard "hatbox" with spice jars in it would be cute...you could cover the lids with fabric to match the hatbox...You could even screw the hatbox to a lazy susan to make it revolve...
