Jaye,this is the one that opened up yesterday evening.

I went to USPS and found a list of new prices.

DANG, Cody those are BEAUTIFUL. Do you have a green house? My Brugs are little tiny things.

Cindy you are right. They are indeed funny!! Need the laugh this morning. GOT to get one of those 'garglers'.. but there's BJ's bbq tempting me.. and I already got the tickets!! Lol!!

Cody.. it's so pretty.. bring it indoors at night, so you could smell the scent.

Jaye,you have lovely cats.I think that Scrunchy,is looking at or for a pretty bird.HEHEHE

Wonder if some of the clay experts could make some? Kris/Elfs-Garden needs to see those. I bet she could make one.

Thanks Jaye,i smelled that one yesterday and it stunk.

And we have 2 tuxedo cats somewhere... not as pretty as yours Cody. How are they doing anyway?

Cindy, I like this old boy here!! Lol!!

He he he... Cody you must have a strong whiff of vanilla with citrus overtones!

Morning girls

Happy Birthday Bonnie and Cookie!!

Cody glad to hear you missed the storms

BJ I got in and voted for ya too ...maybe I need to bring DH over and we make a plan of attack if you don't win
you've sen first hand what we've done here and if ya look at the pictures of my place when we moved in it is a big difference ...my problem is figuring out what to put where and just what will look good ..not to mention knowing all the plants LOL

Yay.. BJ.. seems you will get help if Jason doesn't. Such a good woman our Phyllis is :D

Cody.. it smells like Mr. CLean right ??? LOL!

another

Thanks Jaye,if you were here i would give you the babies.

You know we'll keep 'em.. the more the merrier..

inspired yet?
Look Trisha... Laura!

one more, then I'm off for the day!

Ya know... if I thought that polymer clay would hold up outside, I would attempt making some of those... they're too cute... and would look great hanging on my fence posts... BUT... polymer clay won't keep it's colors in the sun... DARN.

Thanks Jaye,for the talk i need that laugh.Have a great day and enjoy your day out.Tell Kel i said hi,and be careful.

Kimmie,i will call you in a bit.I need to eat something have not ate nothing today.

BJ... Look for some of the airdry clay...It doesn't have to be fired like his terracotta does, and you can paint or stain it, and then shellac it with spray polymer that comes in a can...
Joann fabrics has it for sure, because that is where I found it...less than $8 for a 10 pound box...It is NOT paperclay...

www.amaco.com

It also Can be fired if you wish, but they also recommend sealing it with shellac, because it is porous unless fired...

I thought about doing the same thing with this clay just to see if my hands are going to be able to stand sculpting after a 4 year hiatus...
Gnomes, trolls, gremlins etc. are a specialty of mine... or were... LOL

This one really got my attention Jaye... The Big Bad Wolf...I would love to have that one for my Clan Brother GreyWolf in TX....LOL

I'll have to look into that when I get more time on my hands...

Kimmie,i will wait and call you later.I need to clean house and clean the yard.If Carly and them are their,i will just let you do what y'll need to get done and i will call you later when things are not so busy.

BJ... I went into the hall closet, and dug out that box to get the info for you...It is only 49* here, even though the sun is shining, so I AIN"T going out to play...I drug the garage garden back out in the sunshine, and that wind was just tooo sharp for my bones...Now that box is sitting here at my feet, and my kitchen is spotless and the dishwasher is running... Hmmmmmmmm!!!

Maybe I will open the box??? Ya think??? ROFLLLLL

thank you Synda, Jaye, BJ, Phyllis.

have been too dizzy lately to try to read, so haven't tried to get on here. but it's a birthday, and the dizzies are at bay for a moment. Randall is in his library cleaning - I've got amaryllis and irises stored in there, and he puts presents in there to hide. Ruth and he just found a Christmas present for me! a toolbox for my truck, so now it's a birthday present. already got planned what will go in the top compartments!

hope all went well with Kim's closing day and she isn't yet in the hospital from all that cleaning she'd planned.

that's enough for now. have a wonderful, blessed Easter all.

If you go to purchase the milky spore, check out amazon, I think it was cheaper there, last time we all talked about this and those darn beetles!!

Something else for JB's that is practically free....A large jug of liquid handsoap from the $$ store...Put it in a sprayer and spray a heavy soak...Soap kills the grubs and aphids etc.. and snails and slugs...LOL

Won't that hurt the plants?

LK

Nope... soapy water is what I have used for years on Roses for Aphids..., and you are soaking ground, not plants...If you use it on Roses like I do, it needs to be done very early morning, to give them time to dry....

Did you know that good old Dial bath soap kills fleas??

Nope never heard of that one either. So the soap, even on the ground does not hurt the plants, and the soap on the soil make the aphids go away?
