Guest guest Posted October 29, 2004 Report Share Posted October 29, 2004 Kbear There are 9 goose eggs in my garden from late last summer. The crazy goose made a second nest but then she discovered I had a cat and abandoned the nest. I figured I'd just let the eggs go back to the earth but if you think they are useable after all this time... you can have them. BTW I can relate to most your other crafts as well. Too many hobbys and past hobbies. Shaye I can beat you all - Creative junkie Alrighty here I bet i can beat all of you. Now keep in mind i still live with my parents.

Guest guest Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 I've got a little plaque on the wall of my soap room that says " Creative Clutter Is Better Than Idle Neatness " !!!! :-) My Grandma was always into every craft imaginable. I remember how I couldn't WAIT to go visit her when I was little because she had plastic totes and cardboard boxes stacked from floor to ceiling with tons and tons of fun things to make and do. Very cool! Katy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 30, 2004 Report Share Posted October 30, 2004 Katy, I like that, its cute. My grandmother (not hubbies this time lol) had a plaque that I still reemmber hanign in her kitchen that said. " The hurrier you go, the behinder you get " . One of those tiny fond memories. She was not into crafts at all but her house was spotless and everything in its place. Too bad I didnt inherete that quality.
