Have you seen all the new Burlap Patterns at <a href="http://www.joann.com/search?q=burlap" target="_blank">JoAnn Fabrics</a>? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So many to choose from so I started with just a couple </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
of prints. I noticed these don't "shed" as much as some burlap</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have worked with. Or smell for that matter.</div>

This is what I came up with now at American Country Mercantile.</div>

I love the Fruiting Ivy #23874. I purchased 3 of them way back when and have used them in several baskets and containers. Still available at <a href="http://ic.longaberger.com/ecommerce/control/product?PURCHASE_STATE=STANDARD&product_id=23874&REFERRING_USER_ID=340315" target="_blank">Longaberger at Home.</a> Here's the latest "home" for them. This time I bundled all 3 together and put them in the <a href="http://ic.longaberger.com/ecommerce/control/category?PURCHASE_STATE=STANDARD&category_id=TRADITIONAL_BASKETS&VIEW_SIZE=15&VIEW_INDEX=2&style=red&REFERRING_USER_ID=340315" target="_blank">Medium Ware Basket.</a> A Basket form dating back to the 1800's with it's connection to the original "Ware" Baskets used to carry pottery to the kilns of Ohio Pottery Companies. </div>

This year we actually got our tree and
decorations up Thanksgiving weekend! Everything was festive for the
gatherings in early December and I felt so on top of it this season.
NOT...amazing how quickly December flies by. Are we ever really ready?
I was content to enjoy and not stress this year. I feel like I did
pretty well but blogging did get put aside. Well...I'm checking back in
with pictures I took in early December. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For you my blog fans. Enjoy!</div>

I love simple gift wrap.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Purchased at the Dollar Tree, this Star paper works well all year long.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I grubbied up the snowflake ornament with stampers ink, also </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
at the Dollar Tree and sold in packages of 8 . </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Added twine, the snowflake and it's a wrap.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Perfect for the Ornament Exchange.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I like 'em too and have fun coming up with creative things to fill it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I suggest changing them out for the seasons, and sometimes </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I do it more often that that. This time it's an Autumn theme. In the top part,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the Halloween Night Grooved Pillar I got from Sarah and <a href="http://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=7118818051855765527#editor/target=post;postID=4453089081130209642" target="_blank">PartyLite. </a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Surrounded the Pillar with dry tri-colored pasta spiral noodles. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the bottom, a few little pumpkins and gourds finished the look. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Can't wait to change it out for Christmas!</div>

Once again Longaberger Products made my Baked Potato Bar</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
a fun 'n easy spread for our monthly gathering. Love entertaining with products that </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
serve multi uses as well as look awesome from prep to table. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
First up Baked Potatoes</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Preheat oven to 400 </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used BIG russet potatoes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Covered with olive oil and roll in coarse salt. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For "crispy" skins do not wrap in foil. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Prick with a fork ALL over.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Put on the rack of your oven with a </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
pan underneath to catch any drips. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bake for 50 - 60 minutes or until</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
easily pierced with a knife.</div>

Crafting with my friend Marilyn of <a href="http://www.marilyngossett.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">Marilyn Gossett Designs</a> is always a delight. I learn so much from her and she is blessed with a creative talent that just needs to be bottled up and sold. Last week we got together and made these cute fans for my "fans" of Longaberger. Shared them at Weaving Friendships last night and everyone went home with one. You can find these and more at <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/stuffandthingsandco?ref=em" target="_blank">stuffandthingsandco</a>, Marilyn's Etsy Shop.</div>
