I stayed over last night. And she read me a fairy story, before lights out! But the bed is done. Now to make the quilt. We went to a crystals and curio exhibition market. Someone got a beautiful henna…. Nana is officially broke!!!

@Michelle Tucker scroll down.

@Janet Merz if it helps someone elses children or family, then it’s absolutely worth it. If it’s small children, you could have fairys for girls, dragons for boys.. or other fantasy creatures. It doesn’t matter really at the end of the day, as long as they can write a letter back, it’s getting it out of their heads and into the ether where something else can take it on. Im a big believer that “tell the world outside” what’s happening of the trauma of the individual, and it’s a shared thing. It doesn’t negate it, but it helps to lessen the burden. :)

@Jill Mydler thank you.

So much fun!!

My Dad used to make these. He was in the nursery industry from age 14 till he passed away at almost 89, last year. They’re a lovely set of baskets, and your orchids are going to love them!

I can’t wait to see what you create. Good luck with your entry. :) I don’t have Titebond here, but I’d use something like silicone as well. Hot glue doesn’t hold up very well here in the warmer weather. And it’s not much good in the wet either. It goes white. I look forward to seeing what you make. :)
