DIY IPad Stand



Here's a quick solution I needed to use my iPad while cooking. Now my iPad is not replacing my collection of cookbooks, but I do find myself using my iPad more when cooking. First, you'll need to find a wooden cutting board in a style you like. Don't worry so much about the condition 'cause you're going to paint it.

List of Material:

1. Cutting board
2. Paint of choice
3. (2) 1"x3" for the rail ledge
4. Hinge
5. Screws, wood glue
6. Drill with screwdriver attachment
 
Take your cutting board and attach your 1"x3" on the front with glue and screw from the back. Once dry, paint the front & back. I dry brushed and distressed mine.  


On the back of the board, attach your hinge. Cut another piece of 1"x 3" the length of you board. What you're trying to do is make it stand up. You may need to adjust it so that it stand up .


Add you iPad and get cookin'! 
                                                   

                                                 


   

Rhododendron finally Bloomed

With the weird weather we've had, one day hot and humid the next day it's cold with a hail storm . My rhododendron finally bloomed. I'm not sure how old this plant is, I always look forward to it sharing it's beautiful blooms with me every year.


Mom and Babies


Look who made a home just outside my door. Even though I live in the county and experience all kinds of animals, I'm still in amazed at how they survive. This mommy  whom I've seen and spoken to (yeah I'm kinda weird) choose to make her home just outside my door. She even made a hole to burrow her babies while she's away.
 


For those of you traveling this holiday weekend or going to a family gathering ... Have a Safe Holiday Weekend.
 


 
Look what I picked today. Hand made strawberries from a chenille bedspread, package in a farmers basket.

I just got back from Indiana after spending two weeks with my son. It's so rare to be able to spend  time with him since he's on the road about 25 weeks a year racing. While my son Brandon worked , my husband & I tackled some repairs to his home. One of the jobs my husband and son started was insulating and  dry walling his garage.

 
We toured where Brandon works at John Force Racing in Brownsburg, what an amazing operation.      

 


We ate the Mulberry Cafe, a themed restaurant was that of the  Andy Griffin show. Before you enter you'll notice  Sherriff Taylor police car. The decor made you feel like you were sitting in Aunt Bee's kitchen. There were TV's  streaming episodes of the show along with vintage commercial. The food was home cooking and delicious .
 
As we departed early  Mother's Day  to my surprise  my son  hide a very special  Mother's Day card in the car . I always treasure it and our time together .
 
 

Dresser Makeover


I'm almost done this week's furniture makeover, couldn't wait to  share this with you. I'm really bad about taking before pictures, mainly because I just want to get started , but this time I did. She got a little paint, paper, and  jewelry (AKA new hardware).  I made a shelf riser, cause you can never have too much space to display all your prim goodies. So far I'm pleased how it turned out,  just a little more to finish up . So tell me , what do you think?

Spring Candle Care Tips

With springs arrival I feel I need to remind everyone of some important candle safety tips.

1. It's been a while since the windows have been open, remember to never place candles near the windows and curtains.

2. Never place candles on a TV or other expensive equipment.

3. Drafts are not kind to your candle burning performance, so don't place your candle near or under a ceiling fan (or air conditioner)

 Candle Craft
Here's a quick candle craft idea
1.Take several empty cleaned  candle jars.
2. Tie raffia around the jars.
3. Add  flowers from local farmers market or grocery store.
For people with allergies or if your unable to get fresh flower, simply add silk flowers of your choice... they last forever.
Enjoy !!!


A Whole New Look!

We have a whole new look for our candles! 

They are still hand poured with the same high quality ingredients for a strong aroma experience throughout the life of every candle. We created a new design for our lids and labels that replicates primitive jars and we hope that you enjoy it as much as we do.

TV/DVD Primitive Board

We're at it again! We are always trying to come up with new and interesting products for our customers to make their lives easier and their homes more cozy. I know almost everybody has gone to flat screens for their television viewing pleasure but there are some people out there that haven't upgraded (You know who you are, be proud!)

For those who don't have flat screen televisions, we have created a custom board (similar to our stove board) that sits on top of your TV to provide more space to store your DVD player, remotes or your favorite primitive decorations!
