Went to a few garage sales this morning and one estate sale. Got some pretty things. I posted pictures.
Also thought we would get a few plants for planting outside. yippes!! I think the cost must have gone way up. $17.00 for a flat, same for a hanging basket. We went to three differnt places too. Will be looking around at a few more places before I buy.

you got a bargin in the spread Nancy. I have one that I need to get back to. It is just like that one . Only I am making mine bigger to go on a round old fashioned table I have.
Crocheting pineapples is fun; but there is a lot of work in it isn't Nancy? |
