Cute project made with a scrap of pegboard, a tool holder, test tubes, paint, sandpaper & a stencil. I made it for a sweet friend that gardens in 2006. I got the idea from Hardware Style by Marthe Le Van, which also has a few other great projects & ideas.

Thanks to all the crafters & friends that participated in the Extreme Makeover Home Edition project, & thank you Courtney & the crew for the opportunity. Even with it being last minute, & probably because of it, everyone did such an amazing job! We love Brigid Oesterling, Kimberly Woods, Kelle Jolly, Margaret Lon Britton, Jessica Hendricks, Karly High & Mimi Shymlock from Threds even more! xo
Also, thanks to Foam Rubber & Fabric Outlet at 1323 North Central Street for the sweet fabric donation for our project!

Poinsettias at Stanley's
I haven’t been into Stanley’s garden center since we purchased a few mums in the fall, & I started having withdrawals when I saw them mentioned in Sue Hamilton’s article in the News Sentinel last week:
Poinsettias turning up in new colors, shapes » Knoxville News Sentinel
We got by on Sunday to check out their poinsettia assortment, & it is incredible. The have such a great shop, & the employees are always so great to give advice on your purchases. You should definitely go in to see the their ball & burlap trees, custom arrangements, & the blanket of poinsettias in reds, fuchsias & pinks before they switch them out after Christmas!

Kitsch makes the best aprons ever out of vintage & repurposed fabrics & trims. Mine is white & blue with woodland trim, & it looks pretty in the kitchen when not in use (left.)
