Last Minute Creations; Via the aspirations and inspiration of friends.
After dinner with a friend tonight I was inspired. I have had an issue keeping from some things I want. So I prioritize and that helps. I found myself, after dinner and great conversation with a long time friend, getting up and getting to my sewing.
It's too late for the hot pads and cloth centers I wanted to make for this year. Then out of no where, I decide to make eye pillows.
It was not really that out of the blue, but I was oblivious to that at first. Once I knew the connection, I really felt silly. The good kind of silly though, not the guilt silly's.
These are my new fun. They are rough, but so am I.
I added
lavender Florettes
that we grew, and I harvested, dried, and put up.
Flax
and a pinch of
rosemary
I don't have that much lavender though; so sharing is really good for me, cause I find it harder to share when I worked at something.
That reminds me of last summer. I received a wonderful neighbor gift from a wonderful neighbor lady. I don't really know her, we haven't hung out, but, other than a distant way of knowing people you don't talk to but live near. We do have common interests. thank you for sharing the bounty of your labor. Thank you...
I'll be sure to keep a new dream pillow in my bag so that when we run into each other, I'll have one saved for you.

Banana This; Recycle Old Peels~ fertilizer or silver polish
There are things you can do with that old peel.
1. Do you have a green thumb? House hold plants and outside gardens require fertilization. A great way to give your plants nutrients is with a banana peel. The banana peel is very rich in potassium and phosphorus, which give that added boost to your plants soil, especially so with roses. Here is how to use a banana peel to fertilizer your soil for your plants. Remove the peel from the banana. Place the banana peel on a cookie sheet to let it air dry. Grab a paper bag or envelope. Crumble the dried banana peel and place it in the bag. Let the banana sit at room temperature for about two days. When your caring for your plant, give it a potassium treat of crumbled banana peel. Mix well in the soil to ensure the roots are fed evenly.
2. Have you been thinking about pulling out that old silver? Well there is no time like the present. Bananas peel can also be used to polish silver. Yes, polish silver. Take the old peels and place them in a blender. You want the peels to become smooth and creamy. Once they have, grab a cloth and small amounts of the creamed banana peel and begin polishing your silver. The shine will be breath taking.
