Pumpkin Thyme

 
Good Saturday morning!
I thought it was going to be nice today but,
now it looks like rain.
We have a wedding to attend this afternoon,
hope the weather isn't rainy for them.
Finished this pumpkin rug, it is my design.
I'm getting in the "fall mood", it's
kinda hard for me because
I know winter is following.
Have a great day!!

Summer is Back!!


I really have enjoyed eating all my favorite summertime food.
Fresh fruit every day, I love watermelon!
We have eaten a lot of sweet corn this summer.
Whatever we don't eat I freeze.
Pretty sure I have enough frozen for the whole winter.
It tastes so good in the winter.
I'm hoping to make applesauce soon.

The hot humid weather is back.
I got everything done outside before it got really 
hot, then I finished hooking this rug.
My first fall rug this year.
It is a Blackbird Design, I've been
wanting to hook this one for awhile.
There are a few more that I'd like to hook.
Hopefully, I can get some hooking  done.
Until next time...

Ferns...

Have you tried growing Kimberly Queen Ferns?
These are the easiest ferns I've ever grown.
You can put them right in the sun.
 They are not hardy in my area so,
I bring them inside in the winter.
Put them back outside
in the spring and  they start growing beautiful again.
 
I have been getting outside in the mornings.
Working outside has been nice since
it's been cooler here.
Our Primitive Handmades Mercantile August update,
is this week! Already!!
So I have been working on a couple things.
We'll be updating the website after 9:00 P.M.
Thursday night 8/15 thru 8:00 A.M. Friday morning.
Until Next time.....

Bee Skep Form

I have had alot of questions about what I used for the mold for the bee skep. Here it is. I have 2 of them so I went ahead and used one for the bee skep. You could cover it with plastic and then later remove.
                              This morning I took the pumpkin out of the mold. While it is not fully dry, you can scour the line of the pumpkin. I used a trowel and went over it so isn't snooth. 
Have a great day!
