<span style="font-size: large;">I had a lady contact me in December wanting a custom built paper weight for her husband for Christmas, or his birthday in January. I had some old marble bases from some bowling trophies, but she was more interested in a wood base. This paper weight is to sit on his desk and he apparently is very minimalist! I spent a few nights tossing and t</span><span style="font-size: large;">urning over what wood I would use. I have a big pile of drift wood from the beach, but none of it sits flat and would not sit up straight. I finally found a block of wood I had saved from some other project. It was a tad bit to long, so I went to the lumber yard & had my buddy Randy cut it down and also cut some dog ears on the corners. I brought to the shop and stained it with Annie Sloan Antique wax. The wax matched the face of the golf club perfectly. My customer wanted a Ben Hogan club, as that is her husbands favorite golfer! I broke a black tee off and epoxied it in the shaft of the club. I think it turned out to be quite nice. I suggested that she put a brass face plate on the weight, but again was told that she would be lucky he would even want it on his desk. Not a clutter bug by any means! I bet he would like his name on it, but then again he really might not!!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;">I found the old window at the Angleton Market Days last year and scooped her up! She is 39" X 34". I sealed the glass with E-6000 glue, because I did not want any epoxy to leak out when I started that process (been there done that on my Mardi Gras piece last year). Make sure you glue the corners, because your epoxy will try and seep out any crack it can! I tested the seals by pouring a cup of water on the window! This also gave me another opportunity to clean the glass again. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large; text-align: center;">Next I</span><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"> started hitting a lot of the local Ice houses and Bars for beer caps (you can also find them on Ebay & Etsy if you not up for walking in bars and asking for caps). I tried to use the least bent ones I could find...and a little tip...Let them dry out in your garage, not your house! Phew they can smell for a few days!! I used Lone Star Light caps for the Stars, Coors Light caps for the filler between the stars, Budweiser caps for the red strips, Miller Lite caps for the white stripes and then I used Bud Light caps for the border around the flag. I had to play with it a lot in the beginning to see how she would lay out. I think I pulled the caps off the glass four times before I found a layout that I liked. I staggered the caps to give more room, and this also helps keep the rows straighter! I use approximately 960 beer caps. I got 13 stripes and 50 stars! I also used tin snipes to cut some caps because I could not fit a full cap on some rows, this help fill in the gaps on the Bud Light Border. </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Okay...now I had the layout I wanted and took photos & made written notes so I would not forget how I placed the caps, because I was ready to start the epoxy process. I found my epoxy at Amazon, its called Easy Cast Clear Casting Epoxy & I bought the gallon mixture (you will get two half gallon bottles, one is the mix & one is the hardener. Mix half & half, and stir well). I mixed one Solo Red cup with my epoxy mixture & spread it out as even as I could before placing each cap back on the window! I used just a thin layer so the caps would sit and set. I had plenty of time (1 1/2 hours) to set the caps before the epoxy started really setting. Once I had all the caps in place I used a hair dryer (mine is a very heavy duty one that I use on golf clubs...not hair!!) to pull any bubbles out! Some people like to use a torch which is fine, but it can scorch! I let the piece dry over night before putting another layer of epoxy down. Again I used the hair dryer to pull bubbles out of the epoxy! If you get a bubble during the hardening process..not to worry..poke a hole in it and when you do your next layer it will fill in and you will not be able to see it at all!!</span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I am done! Three layers of epoxy (one gallon total) and I think she came out looking great! It is very heavy but that is okay! </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I always find odds and ends at the beach every Summer & I usually just throw them in a glass jar I have on the patio, or in the garage to dry out. Couple years ago I made a wind chime with some caps I had collected, and I used a "Super Bowl" Aluminum Bud Light bottle. I called it the "Hangover"...They make very little noise & and of course made from beer caps! Recently I decided I wanted to make some more! So I hit my local Ice House once a week or so & they graciously give me enough to work with (I leave a tip of course)! I now have a whole series of "Hangover" wind chimes. Here are some photos and their history.</span></div>

When hanging in a window the light reflects the glass and gives it a nice sparkle of color. This on is 21" long and hangs 27" with the strap. She is very heavy!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This one is called "Giant Super Bowl Hangover #2" I had cut the bottom of this bottle back when I was making "Giant Super Bowl Hangover" and did not like the results...so I put it up and forgot about it! I ran across the aluminum bottle the other day and thought....hmmm let me think about this! I found a fan cap my Mom had given me for what ever reason & now I found myself holding these two pieces! First I spray painted the fan cap a baby-ish blue...YUK! I pulled the silver out and we were in business. This one also has the glass beads between the caps. Explanation for the name "Giant Super Bowl Hangover" is explained below!!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">"Drift Wood Micky" I picked this piece of wood up last year at the beach and stuck it in the garage to dry! Last week I ran across it and knew what I wanted to do! I used Michelob Ultra caps, thus the name Micky! Michelob Ultra caps rust really badly by the way!! Not sure why, but if you are working with this product..Keep that in the back of your mind!! I also used glass beads between the caps. I found an old pukka shell necklace, not sure if they are plastic or real, but I used them to hold the fishing line at the top of the drift wood. I was going to use leather as a strap (and I drilled the holes for that) but I decided I like how the fishing line held the wind chime. Now I need to either make two more strands or just leave it for a leather strap later. </span></div>

I came across two red pepper aluminum lids that I had saved (hoarded, but that's another story...hee hee). I dug out the hein-y caps and went to work. I had a stash of keys that I used on the bottom of each strand. I also used glass beads between the caps on this project.

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">a Votive as its feet! Fun piece. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I have started using All Thread and </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">locking nuts with my pieces. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I drill very carefully with a diamond </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">drill bit and then just cut the All Thread accordingly! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I used a 1/4" drill </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">bit and All Thread. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I also started using Neoprene washers that I placed </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">between the glass </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">and locking nuts. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">This helps not bind the glass so bad when you tighten down the nuts. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I found out quickly these can be expensive and hard to find. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I started making my own "washers" out of felt and a Punch Set! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I have also used thick plastic! </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">To finish off the piece I also added a drop of epoxy on the nuts, </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">just to give them a little more strength. </span></div>

I used some Shiner Bock beer caps and then places <span style="background-color: #f8f8f8;"><span style="color: #333333;">Millefiori, stones & Beads in the caps. I used epoxy resin to fill in the cap. I had purchased a bracelet at a local fundraiser this past year with the thoughts that the beads were super cool & usable in some other project down the road! I was right, as they finished of these with a little Bling Bling! they are not straight and some of the beads are crooked, but I think that adds to the appeal of them! Helloooo..They are beer cap necklaces..lol!!</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I started with this Ice Cream tub, yes yummy! I have however given up ice cream, well let me back up...In August I quit eating Blue Bunny & switched to Skinny Cow! Lordy Lordy that Skinny Cow is really good! Anyway one day while washing this tub to put into the recycle bin & by the way I hate to waste water to wash things for the recycle bin, but you gotta pick your evils right now & I choose recycling! I held this tub up & knew exactly what I wanted to do with it & an old water faucet I had of my Grandmothers. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I brought the tub to my shop & cut a hole in it where I wanted the faucet to go. I then coated it with tile adhesive. Two objectives with this tile adhesive...one it hides the colorful labels on the tub & two it holds the glass gems to the tub! I also glued a washer on the front to help stabilize the weight of the faucet on the sides of the tub. I choose the bright blue glass gems as blue was my Grandmothers favorite color! </span></div>

<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I used another washer on the back to help with the faucet weight, as well as purchasing this big bolt to hold the faucet to the side of the tub. This way the faucet can be removed anytime if needed.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I got some silver Mardi Gras beads my Mother had on her Christmas tree & cut three pieces off. I used a sturdy piece of wire and wrapped the top of the beads together, then ran the wire through the faucet. I finished off the project with a bright white grout and one top coat of polyurethane to give everything a nice shine & it also seals the grout. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">The Faucet Flower Pot would fall over before I grouted it, but as you can see she sits nice & tall & pretty on her own. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I have been doing a few mosaic pieces lately & have had a really good time working on the different shape objects. The other night we finished a sour cream bowl, and as I was rinsing it out to put in the recycle bin I thought to myself... "this would make a nice size flower pot". I brought it to the shop the next morning, and tested some tile adhesive to cover up the lettering on the outside. It seemed to cover all the ink printed on the outside of the plastic container just fine, so I grabbed my roll of faux pearls & glass gems and went to work. I did not color the grout on this piece, but rather I left it white. After leaving it alone for a few days, I decided I wanted to test out painting on grout! I got my paint & brush out and went to work. I am not wild about the color, but it seems to work, and even got darker after I sealed the grout. I think this could be used either inside or out! Not to bad for a sour cream bowl.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;">Regular garden (pun is intended) variety bowling ball! I got my trusty bright pink Valspar spray paint can out and proceeded to spray away! It took two coats and some patience! You can only paint half the ball at a time. In our area the humidity is high, so it took me two days to get this ball painted and then dried! </span></div>

<span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">I began gluing my flat bottom marbles as close as I thought they needed to be. I started at the bottom of the ball around the solar light hole and worked my way around from there. I used approximately 100 flat bottom clear small marbles and 20 large flat bottom clear marbles. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Again this takes time as you can only do a section at a time. I let my marbles dry over night. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;">I used almost a whole tub of the Mosaics grout by Jennifer from Hobby Lobby. Since I was going for the "Pink" theme I thought I would use some food coloring in my grout. It worked out really well, or so I think is has (more on this later). Follow the instructions on the grout label. It is again tedious, but well worth the extra mixing and cleaning for the end product. I used about 8 drops of food coloring per batch I made. This food coloring ads liquid so remember to take that into account when mixing. I added my coloring first & then I added the water!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;">I grouted the bowling ball per the instructions on the tub and found that it was really quite easy. It turned my fingers pink from the food coloring, but that came right off after a few hand washing's. Something I have learned since doing this ball while I was researching different/cheaper grouts when I read that... food coloring will not work. I will say that the grout in this ball is getting lighter and lighter. I am not sure if that is from it completely drying or if it is fading. I am sure that once it sits in the sun it will fade. I will be doing another gazing bowling ball this week for my Mother, and will be testing paint in my grout. I will update if this is a good or bad thing! I also learned that there are different kinds of grout for different projects! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Made this statue for my cousin Laura! She loves the color Orange. One day out on a junking trip I found this vase in a resale shop that was closing. I did not know at the time that I would be using it for her, but knew that this vase was the bomb & I wanted to have it! I had </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">discussed with Laura a couple of times this year about what I wanted to do for her & we even picked pieces out for the project. I just</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> never really got the "sha~bang" feeling when I started her build! One day while in the shop and working on some other projects I pulled the yellow vase out. I looked at it for a few days and that's when it hit me...BAM! Laura's build was started. I found the plates I wanted to use and the middle section I wanted to use! That's when it hit me that I had a blue glass apple! Laura is a retired school teacher, this apple was perfect for the top ... "sha~bang" there is blue on the vase! Love it when a build comes together! </span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: x-large;">I filled the bag up about 3/4 the way to the top, </span></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So I have been seeing garden art everywhere on Pinterest & Etsy, and I always wanted to make one that was unique, functional & different from all the ones you see there. My sister Sally & I had been talking about it, and one day she brought me a glass candy dish & a candle stick. "This should be the prototype for the "Art" we want to build", she proclaimed. I began searching for a bottom that I could use that were different than just the small bud vases. Couple of months went by, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">and I had just about forgot about the "Art" when as usual when you quit looking it jumps out at you. We were out hitting local resale shops looking for old golf clubs, when we decided to stop at a local Mom & Pop dollar store. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Low and behold I found the bottom I wanted to use on the Garden Art as soon as I walked in the door.</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> The tall Eiffel tower vases just about jumped off the shelf & into my arms. I bought a couple and started creating! These vases are not easy to find, especially</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> the green. Here are some of the creation I have made. Enjoy....</span><br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">This past week I decided enough was enough! My mailbox post is so ugly it just has to get a makeover. I knew what I wanted to do, all I had to do was get in the car, buy some stuff and do it! I went to the local car repair shop first, and asked if I could buy one of their used tires they had lying in a huge pile at the side of their shop ... The man said "I could have anyone I wanted at no charge".....and best of all they help me look through them & then even loaded it in my car for me! I love small town America! I headed to the local home improvement center, and bought some spray paint & some flowers before heading home to tackle the ugliest mailbox post in town. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I unloaded my stuff & set about painting my tire and the mailbox post. It takes a lot of soil to fill the tire so make sure you have some extra field dirt or cheap top soil to fill in before using your good soil on top. I did not drill any drain holes in this tire, because the mailbox sits in full sun and the flowers will need all the water they can get when it gets warmer this Spring & Summer. Once I had all the dirt in the tire, I planted my flowers & bulbs. I will take photos as soon as the bulbs start to bloom. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I am so excited about my mailbox post makeover! Now all that is left is finding a new mailbox....</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I make my own simmering crock pot potpourri, and I usually just cut up a few Oranges at a time because of a space issue. This year my Orange tree produced loads of Oranges, and I needed to get them all cut up & drying before they mildew. I tried using cardboard beer boxes, but the weather was just not cooperating with me (high humidity), and I needed to find a way to get them dried & fast! Couple of days had passed and I was doing a load of laundry when its like the dryer jumped up & slapped me! At first I just threw all the peels into the dry and turned it on! Well lets say that was quite a "loud" mistake and it knocked the pith off. Needless to say I had Orange pith everywhere! Then I remembered that I have a shoe drying rack!! Voila!! I put the peels on the rack and turned the dryer on!! Two cycles at high heat and these Orange peels were dry as a bone! Yippee!! I am so excited.... </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Another plus for drying Orange peels in your dryer...It makes your dryer smell fresh!! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I know you are asking yourself.... "What did I do with all the juice from these Oranges?"...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Well let's say for some reason this particular Orange tree produces the most sour Orange's ever! I was told it was a Lemon tree when I purchased it, and I planted it next to my other Orange tree. The first two years it produced really nice large Lemon's that were a little strange looking, but nice Lemon's! I can only assume that the bee's cross pollinated the tree and turned it into a sour Orange tree. I have toyed with cutting it down, but just cannot bring myself do it. I keep hoping that nature will turn these beautiful Orange's sweet, </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">but until that happens </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I will just</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> use the Orange peels for my Potpourri! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Need to refresh your vacuum cleaner filter? </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYMJON4FtZKrwsihJMGKWeP4K-idnLTG2A3JcPq_pKJwAdiI8nDUmG_JOQce6YbO2l4kjZ6aPgiWVqfzm-WDzMXxpCLh2yWGbo7gQcwmAqWR3F6GQzD4FPNTTO4lODRF-xw0dd17qEuw/s1600/Filter+Refresher+Photo.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="636" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYMJON4FtZKrwsihJMGKWeP4K-idnLTG2A3JcPq_pKJwAdiI8nDUmG_JOQce6YbO2l4kjZ6aPgiWVqfzm-WDzMXxpCLh2yWGbo7gQcwmAqWR3F6GQzD4FPNTTO4lODRF-xw0dd17qEuw/s640/Filter+Refresher+Photo.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I wanted to replace my Eureka vacuum filter, because the nice Febreze smell was gone, and it was kinda yukky looking. After looking at the prices for replacing the filter at the various Large Box Retailers (Walmart & Target), I found myself rethinking that what I have would be just fine! Average replacement cost was $13.00 - $20.00! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Wow, that's kinda high. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So I was out and about doing some shopping the other day after an eye appointment when I went down the potpourri aisle in Walmart. I wonder if I could use the liquid potpourri to refresh my vacuum filter! I bought a bottle of the Linen smell (32 oz) for $3.00. Once I got home I found a small plastic coffee container that I could put my extra filter & liquid potpourri in. The one I found is not quite tall enough, but would hold the filter and the liquid potpourri just fine. I let the filter soak in the potpourri for about an hour or so, then took it out & let it dry on a plate. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">On a side note....I let it dry on top of my refrigerator and every time I walked pass or opened my refrigerator I could smell the filter! I think this is going to work! I also kept the liquid I poured into the coffee container & labeled it for future use!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">So, today I replaced my newly potpourri-ed vacuum filter and started vacuuming my carpet! OMGolly! It works! Makes the air smell like clean Linen!! Yippee!! Not only have I saved money, but I have all the extra liquid potpourri to continue refreshing my filters for a long time to come!! I am also going to try soaking my filters in a bleach & water mixture after I hose them off! I should have nice white and clean smelling vacuum filters, and with two dogs everyone knows its a must to have clean & smell pretty filters!</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I used one small Mini Mason Jar, added fresh cut Rosemary from my garden to the bottom, then poured in about two tablespoons of Vanilla extract (I use the the extract from Mexico that is too strong to cook with). Next I pick one fresh Meyer lemon off my tree and sliced it. I placed the lemon on top of the Rosemary and vanilla. I then topped it off with some more Rosemary & added water to fill the jar. I have them in my refrigerator right now. Now all I need is some ribbon to place around the jar and these will make great gifts to give to people when I go to their homes this holiday season! </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">I also make a </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">similar</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> Quart Mason Jar gift that is dry. It contains Cinnamon sticks, Cloves and </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">dried</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;">Orange</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large;"> peels. I also place dried pine cones in it to fill the jar up, plus it gives a nice Christmas look! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;"><u>Instructions for Simmering:</u></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Place all ingredients in a stove top pan, add a cup of water and simmer on the stove. <u>Never Under Any Circumstances</u> leave a pot simmering on a stove unless you are in the kitchen to watch it! I usually will get mine to a boiling point and then turn off the stove top, or I leave it on the back burner that vents the oven, so when I am cooking it heats it without me having to turn on the stove top! I have used this particular amount for about 3 weeks of smelling until I had to throw it out. I also add extra Rosemary once a week to kick it up a notch. You can also use a crock pot for simmering, again remember to fill it with water every hour or so!! You can never be to careful...Please!!</span></div>
