Happy Mother's Day to all the Mom's out there!




Yesterday I did some gardening with one of my good friends, Jamie. Waiting to get pictures uploaded to show you guys what we did.


It's Mother's Day, what are you doing for your mother today? Nothing is more precious than a Mother receiving a gift from their child/children that they have made. I had this really good idea for my Mom. I love wine & have kept alot of wine bottle around the house waiting for the right project to use them. So I have researching on the internet on things to use the wine bottles and found this website. http://www.gerardotandco.com/blog/recycled-bottle-torch/. This is a great website. I found the intstructions to make the torches as seen at the top. This was easy to construct & very good directions on what you'll need & assembly. Aren't these great? Be artistic with this. Add your own design to them/make them custom. Gem stones, paint them, etc. This is great for decks, along a fence line. Once lit this will be the talk of the barbeque. Costs only around $5.00 for all the supplies I went to HomeDepot to get all the supplies. (wine not included in that quote haha) I am working on some for my backyard. Posts on that to come. If you aren't a big wine drinker, I know that you can purchase really cool glass water bottles at any grocery store. I am going be making mass quantities of these so if you are interested in purchasing them let me know. Once I get some done I will post them. They will be alittle bit more custom with my twist on them. :-) Until next time friends. Take'r easy.
