They made Milk Jug Art Work!


My grandson made his own 'pokemon' with clay and a battlefield from a box.

They painted a Tea Set!


I need to share some photos of my garden. As far as the Pallet Gardens, I couldn't be more pleased, especially with the fact that there were no weeds! Part of our summer was extremely hot and dry so everything needed extra water. The pallet gardens require more watering than my in-ground gardens, but not as much as the plants in my container garden.



After the extreme hot and dry weather we had a period of excess rain, making everything very soggy. It was a difficult summer for veggies and fruit. Nonetheless my strawberries, broccoli and tomatoes have been delicious and my herbs have grown well!




I love having morning time in my garden, always a good start to the day! Here are some garden scenes.








And here are my fur babies who bring silliness and sweetness into each day: my dog Zorra and cats Goldie & Max.


Goldie in particular finds a way to add laughter!


With my grandkids returning to school next Monday, I should be able to reclaim my creative time which was minimal during the summer break! I will update my jewelry in the next blog.
Thank you for sharing some time. Peace&Love.
