A New Year

Lots of plans for the new year.  I'm not superstitious but I do believe in fresh starts and goals. My Mother and I are gift wrapping antiques together with her new line of Farmhouse soaps and candles. An old milk glass plate topped with a vintage crocheted doily, and a bottle of hand soap/hand cream and a beautiful fragrant soy candle. Or a beautiful tea cup with your favorite teas and cookies. With my love for primitives, I would love an old yellow ware or wooden bowl stuffed with a piece of brown or linen homespun, a candle and an old beater. Better yet a red ware pot planted with an herb and tied with a pair of new leather garden gloves and a new book. Pick your antique and we'll do the rest. The unique gift...just because.

I also want to improve my knitting skills, hook rugs, crochet and do a few cross stitch samplers. In between running a rental business and taking care of my husband and two teenagers landscaping around the house, studying up on honey bees, putting up stone around my porch piers. Planning a high school graduation is also in the works, applying to college for my son,.. etc, and the list goes on. Really praying my health, energy and motivation all cooperate!
