The 127 Yard Sale, or the World’s Longest Yard Sale, as it is also called, is a Junker’s dream. If this is your first trip, or if you are a pro, this is one of the biggest events of the year for junkers and pickers. You need to be prepared. I’ve listed some things that…
How to Keep Cut Flowers Fresh
Are you lucky enough to have a cut flower garden? Or, like me, do you gravitate toward the fresh cut flowers at the farmer’s market? Either way, you’ve brought those beautiful blooms home and we want to keep them as long as we can! Just follow these tips for a long lasting bouquet of fresh…
How to Grow Bee Balm
Bee balm (Monarda Didyma) was in full bloom in my garden a few years ago at the side of an old shed we needed to tear down. I didn’t want to loose it, so I decided to move it to a split rail fence closer to the house. Bee balm is easy to transplant. Since…
Tricycle Planted with Pansies
Do you have a favorite flea market find that you always buy? Vintage vases, old galvanized buckets, or gardening tools? Well, tricycles are my weakness. I currently have 4 or more in my shed, so on a pretty day last week I pulled this tricycle out and planted it with pansies. Pansies are…
Vintage Style Spring Moss Purse
While trying to organize some of my craft supplies and junk finds, I came across three little moss purses I had purchased a few years ago. I also found a few doilies for another project, and a pair of vintage flower earrings. These would be cute for a vintage style spring moss purse. Spring is…

I spotted these little ceramic farm animals with the artificial succulents in them. My initial thought was these would look cute with real…

Terracotta pots aren’t just for planting in! I use for decorating, to put gifts in (lip balm, garden soap, hand balm) scattering around the garden for decorating, and creating some great Terracotta crafts. Anytime I’m out junking, I look for Terracotta pots and I have amassed quite a few of them. While at a local…
Repurposed Garden Tote
We have had unseasonably warm weather for the last few days. In fact, it is 73 degrees today, about 20 degrees above normal. I won’t get fooled into sneaking a few spring seeds into the ground, but it is a perfect day to complete a few projects that have been on my to do list. …
Bath Salts Christmas Ornaments
I was in Michael’s Craft Store a few days ago and saw these clear Christmas ornaments. I am going to a Christmas craft show this weekend, and needed some “quick and easy” additions to the other products I am taking. They were perfect for creating some Bath Salts Christmas Ornaments, and would make great stocking stuffers,…
Christmas Herbs: Rosemary
When I think of Christmas herbs, rosemary doesn’t usually come to mind. Frankincense and myrrh are known by most people as the rare and expensive herbs brought to the Christ child after his birth. But, after reading an article about Rosemary and it’s significance at Christmas I was surprised to find that Rosemary, or the…
