Blogs are challenging, I really want to post every day, but the 3 kidlets have kept me busy. Now that school is about to start and we are settled in our new cottage, I am going to try and blog every day. We've moved across Maryland to Aberdeen Proving Grounds. An army base on the Chesapeake bay, or as my Son reads it....CheepSkate Bay.
I love our new place, it's more roomy than our rented Townhouse in Mt. Airy. I will post some pics of it soon, not that cute to look at, since we are talking Military housing. But it's clean, neat, and we feel really safe living on base. I've found two thrift stores in the surrounding area. Will post some pics on those as well. Somewhat disappointed with the offerings around here. Garage Sales are scarce too. Luckily I need nothing, so it's not such a bad thing to cool down my shopping madness.
Kids are fighting on the couch, so gotta Scadaddle!

Newest Garden Glass Plate Flower

Excited About Spring Gardening & Decorating with Glass Plate Flowers
Found a fun blog about gardening. http://fairegarden.wordpress.com/ Check out the succulents, absolutely amazing. I put together my first Plate Glass Garden Flower. So easy and so pretty.
I used 3 plates, and one piece of art glass. Drilled holes in all and screwed into an old wooden curtain rod I found at the store. It may have cost me 12-15 for all. I try not to pay more than $3 for any one plate. I know I paid $2 for the scalloped plate, and I think $3 for the piece of art glass. I love it, and I'm going to put it in a planter on the patio. I've been arranging other designs, will have more to post soon.
