A Finished Project and Cuttings.....

 

Happy T day everyone! Thank you Bluebeard and Elizabeth for holding such a wonderful Party.  I'm so sorry for your frustrations leaving a comment. I hope a solution presents itself as i have no idea.... Have you done or considered reloading your system?  Above you will find my latest Facebook Marketplace find!  Its huge! Like 30" across!! A great addition to my Sun Collection... love, love, love

I scored Saturday Morning with someone giving away cuttings of Wandering Jew! A grocery bag full for $5...... YES please.. This vase was my Mother in Laws that she gave me years ago and sat in a cabinet all this time.. I thought it fit the bill wonderfully... I even gave some cuttings away  ..... 
But i don't want you to think i shorted  myself...lol  My goodness!  My plan is to let them grow roots over the Winter and plant outside in the Spring... Now long term plans are.... every Fall before they die back to the ground i can cut them off and root MORE over the Winter again... !!!!

My ticket to the Tparty AND my completed Project!! I found wooden fish at the Dollar Store. I couldn't pass them up... Originally i was going to paint them Silver.... and put them in my MasterBath on the top of the wall near the ceiling and just go around the room.....

But come to find out the Silver really just looked grey up there on the wall... So i changed tactics and went for colorful... For those that remember i do have my colorful Fish Painting hanging in there too...


There's some glitz and glamour that i hope there will be enough light in there to show it off... 

There are 18 total!  Yeah i never do anything in moderation... sigh.... 
And i was very tired of doing them by the time they were done....  Now Hubby has to get them up on the wall... I'll take another pic then....  They are a mixture of acrylic paint, metallic paint, pearl paint, glitter and the 'bubbles' were put on with texture paste through a stencil...  Happy happy T day everyone and i'll be around to visit... Hugs! deb

  3. Those are neat projects! Growing plants from cuttings is ambitious -- I'm not such a great gardener to succeed with something like that.

    On my blog you wrote (in response to my kitchen post) that you always wash chicken. Of course it's up to you, but maybe you would be interested in my reason for not doing it -- the USDA strongly recommends not to. Their statement on the USDA website: "Some consumers may wash or rinse their raw meat or poultry because it’s a habit or because a family member they trust has always washed their meat. USDA research has found that washing or rinsing meat or poultry increases the risk for cross-contamination in the kitchen, which can cause foodborne illness."
    I know that some people don't trust research and don't trust the government, but I think they are trustworthy.

    1. I have to agree with Mae. I have never washed meat or poultry. I would simply pat it dry on all sides, then prepare it for cooking AFTER I wash my hands with soap and water.

  6. Dear Deb,
    your colorful fish look great - I'm curious to see the "finished photo" of the bathroom!
    It's great that you found this big sun - and the cuttings. I wish you good luck with the plant propagation. The vase looks pretty and special. Happy T-Day!
    All the best and a lovely October!
    Hugs Traude

  7. You really scored with that sun. It will go great with your other sun art. Nice that you got all those cuttings. What made me really smile were all those fish. I look forward to seeing them in your bath. Thanks for sharing your finds and your coffee with us for T this Tuesday, Deb.

    It's ironic my first comment went through no problem. Now I got a "failed to publish." Not sure when you will see this. I'm sad this happened.
