I have never done that; I think what you use depends on what the baskets will also be used for (foods or decoration).

Thanks :hug: Rest well!


The baskets are the drawers in this new little stand I bought...I will put my beading junk in there I think...When I move these drawers in and out, stuff sort of smudges off of them. They are made of cheap straw-like material...maybe I can get some pictures of them. They are sturdy enough for my purpose.

:wave:Hello Golden Eagles.:wave:


It sounds like Gail and Shirley both had productive days. Our weather is lovely, so I spent a couple hours enjoying it.

Wishing all a restful evening.


I have had a good day...

Do miss my hubby, but I am doing fine. We have very wet weather in the desert to the east...just cloud cover here and higher humidity. I am about to get away from the pc for a while....

Can you line them with a material (hot glue it in place)?
My sister did that with some baskets.

Just stopping by to say "hello":wave:

It is a lot cooler today, around 68, so, I was able to mow the lawn, it looks so nice, I have the sprinkler on now. It is really windy, but, that is normal for here when it is cooler.:cool:

The fires are 90% contained now, praise the Lord, should be 100% by Friday.:clap:

Have a nice evening and will talk to you all later.

Hugs:hug:
Susie

Lining with material just might work, I will experiment with that. :thumbsup:

I will 'wait' for the picture :)

If it hasn't been done-before alraedy [is, au-naturalle]
then, spraying with clear varnish
may aid it's preservation and also with shape maintenance

Hi Dear GE's~sorry for not getting back to your sooner. Yesterday, I was busy moving in to my temporary apartment in Yakima, it is really cute, I have some more things to move, then, I will go home and pack EVERYTHNIG to put into storage. I am also looking into a darling, two bedroom condo, it would be perfect for my needs, in a very quiet neighborhood, and the seller is a Christian, I looked at it again today, it is wonderful, so, now, I have to see how I will finance it, etc. Please keep me in your prayers regarding it. If I get it, I will post pictures of it. Oh, it is only 2 miles from my school as well.

I was pretty stiff after the lawn mowing, but better today. Iwill be so glad to move, then, no more yard work, this place I want to buy has a cute patio, and the condo association pays to have the lawn mowed. I feel like the Lord led me there, but, we shall see, I like my little studio where I am now too, so, Iam OK with anything that He sends my way.

It is cooler today and breezy, I think we may be over all the extreme heat, at least I hope so.

Well, talk to you later, hope you are doing well my friends.

Hugs
Susie

I had a much busier day than expected...but things are slowing down now...my dear friend Lori had today off she brought me lunch and it felt very good to have her here in the house with me...I expect another visitor later....wow, the Lord has procived so many supports for me...makes me cry a bit.

This is where i opened my Bible this morning:

2 Corinthians 5

English Standard Version (ESV)


Our Heavenly Dwelling

5 For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 For in this tent we groan, longing to put on our heavenly dwelling, 3 if indeed by putting it on we may not be found naked. 4 For while we are still in this tent, we groan, being burdened—not that we would be unclothed, but that we would be further clothed, so that what is mortal may be swallowed up by life. 5 He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who has given us the Spirit as a guarantee.
6 So we are always of good courage. We know that while we are at home in the body we are away from the Lord, 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight. 8 Yes, we are of good courage, and we would rather be away from the body and at home with the Lord. 9 So whether we are at home or away, we make it our aim to please him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil.

Good morning. I changed my font color BEFORE I read that orange and red can trigger seizures in some people. I wanted a color different from everyone else. I'll keep trying.


I think I have heard of something like this...are you sensitive to colors?

I'm not sensative like that, but some colors like yellow make my eyes burn if I try to read them. I just figure I shouldn't impose bright red on everyone who reads my posts.:idea: I just like color:p

I'm glad Lori has been there for you, and more importantly, you've felt God's provision!:clap:

It is Saturday here...I went for a walk early....it was daylight and I locked my house...have learned the crime rate in my town has greatly increased...:duh:

My hubby will be home late tonight, I will be very glad to see him to say the least.

I am thinking of Gail...the service for her MIL was yesterday.

That is so sweet of you Shirley, and greatly appreciated! :hug:

Her funeral was beautiful, and we had a wonderful time at the meal after, with all his cousins and the few aunts and Uncles who are left.

It is a sobering feeling that we are the next generation to go!
While we face it with faith and embrace each day we are blessed with joyfully, the kids are concerned and overwhelmed about it all, so we are trying to assure and prepare them for what they would have to do.

But God willing, we will still have 25-30 good years left!
Then again, one or both of us could be gone tomorrow; the mystery of life!

We plan to just relax this weekend ~ Church tonight with dinner out after; tomorrow maybe get a walk in and BBQ a light supper.

Praying for your men's safe return today; you have been in my thoughts and prayers for your protection and peace :hug: :pray:
