Meredith,
Thank you for this entry:
This past weekend, DH and I have been busy with routine car maintenance and a car tune-up. But ... next weekend ... our DD's have a scout craft bazaar ... and they have to produce something sell-able by Saturday morning.
These links are sparking my imagination. Too bad I didn't keep that old suede jacket!

Also, check out "Notes from a Cottage Industry" to see her beautiful baking and packaging ideas. Or if you just want to see her super ideas for gracious living on a budget.
Oh, yes, Notes from A Cottage Industry is a beautiful blog, and I've highlighted several of her projects here at Like Merchant Ships.
This was the first time I've seen a paper band type label around a loaf bread--an idea I thought was particularly easy and cute.
Meredith,
Thank you for today's great links. There are good things to glean from each one.
Blessings,
Rita
Thanks! BTW, I love your blog for many reasons and because you don't promote things for your readers to BUY! That does become tiresome.
