Well, things aren't moving as quickly as I would like. . . got knee deep in projects and am dreaming of ways to beautify the world with plants; which reminds me, check out Echo's Mandala.
Frances, Jennie Ann and I have been working on making a Mary of Guadalupe Altarpiece for a homeless campsite here in town. Frances' keenly frugal nature allowed us to make it at minimal cost: she traded tomato plants for fiberboard and took a friend up on an offer for a free, plastic yard decoration Mary. We all pitched in and made it in the course of about 8 hours! All it took was a little paint, some stencils and silk flowers. (Must insert a quick applause for Charlie and his detailed nature and unending patience for taking care of the hair on the figure. . . too many paint fumes prevented us girls from being able to paint a good hairline at any cost!)

After the finishing touches were applied, I must admit we were all a little shocked and extremely proud with what we had done! We are going to put it out and plant around it in an hour, so pictures will definitely be available SOON! I will also post some instructions on a diy alterpiece for your own home. . .
c'mon and build one with me, its the latest craze, I promise.
