jo.my.mother : February 2015
http://www.jomymother.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 7, 2015. I bought bedding plants.just because I wanted to. These are the little tomatoes. There were 6 in the package. Don't know if you can see them very well in the wood chips. These are my little spinach plants. I'm excited to see how well they all do. There were 9 plants in the package. I'm excited to see if this kind of gardening will work for us (me) as I'm not the best gardener. We love navel oranges, so I bought two of them. Labels: back to eden gardening. Words to live by.

http://www.jomymother.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 20, 2012. Hope you like this. I did. Friday, November 9, 2012. I have been wanting to put some kind of seasonal wreath on the front door. I found this lovely one at a new store in our area called Garden Ridge. It's the only one in our state. But, I have seen some in other states. The halloween and fall things were on sale for 50% off so I was very pleased. I found these beautiful bunches. And I was more than happy to pick them up! Then glued them to the wreath.

jo.my.mother : altered t-shirt tutorial
http://www.jomymother.com/2014/01/altered-t-shirt-tutorial.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. I know there are a lot of altered t-shirts out there. So I thought I would add to the party. You will need a t-shirt, two different wide ribbons, a button (I used a glass bead) and some round elastic or two strong hair rubberbands. Be sure to wash and dry the t-shirt before you start. I always try to wash the item before I sew it. Fold the front in half and pin it so you can be sure that the cut is centered. I pinned the side seams. Now cut it right down the center front. For th...
