Lemons, Oranges Oh My!!
Since it is a beautiful sunny day here in southern Florida, I hung sheets outside (love the way they smell) and then I decided to make some lemon cookies. I have two lemon trees in pots on our deck and the lemons are ready to be picked. Love this time of year when the fruit trees are doing their thing. Thought I would share them with you.

Decorative Christmas Boxes

| Decorative Christmas Boxes |
Sometimes you just need a little box or maybe three! They can be used for decorating or for gift giving. These cute little boxes are easy to create and inexpensive as well.
I purchased these paper mache boxes at my local craft store A.C. Moore. They cost $1.00 each. You could also use small tins instead or even large ones depending on your particular need.

| Travel Mug with Fabric Stocking Tag |
I see others carrying their mugs too, so I thought that a travel mug would make a good Christmas gift or teacher gift. I always try to have extra gifts already made, since you never know when you might need one. I always need a little something!

Vintage Yellow Vase with Fall Arrangement

Found this yellow vase at a church flea market. Loved the vintage look of it, although not sure how old it is.
The finish on it has a "crackling" glaze to it. It might just be the way it is made, but I loved the look and thought it would make a great addition to my fall buffet display.

Rustic Turkey Salt and Pepper Shakers

| Rustic Ceramic Turkey from Pottery Barn |
So I wondered if I could re-create this look. I didn't want to buy a large ceramic turkey to experiment on and as luck would have it, I found a set of rustic ceramic turkey salt and pepper shakers at a garage sale for 50 cents. What did I have to loose!
