Hi All, Thanks for your input and nice comments. Sunnyca, I added the hearts to the first plate. Just ordered some different pieces for trying mosaic and thought it matched my flower. Deezie, I started using E6000 Glue which works great. But from the recommendation from here I have moved on to the GE II clear caulk in the gun. I get both of them at Walmart. Have A Great Day!

Lisa, Here's some poems that go with the gag type gifts. Most people make the bag toppers for these. Post back with any questions regarding these. Leprechaun Kisses Wrap hershey kisses in green tulle and tie-on this poem with curly or satin ribbon: Just a little bit of Ireland That I'm sending you today.

Get 10oz plastic green bottles of Mountain Dew. Make some computer labels to put over the others and call them "Leprechaun Drink" or "St Patricks Day Brew" or "Irish Dew" You could even do it with Beer in a green bottle. Poem I ran into a leprechaun And asked if he'd been told Where the rainbow ended With the treasured pot of gold. He didn't know, but then gave me A special Irish brew (dew) To brighten your St. Paddy's Day I'm sharing some with you! or Sit right down I have somethng for you, Here's a green bottle of very good brew.

You can take a couple of Hershey's kisses & make a long stemed rose from them. Get the red wrapped ones & if I remember right you put the bottoms of 2 together & wrap it with plastic wrap & you attach it to a flower stem with floral tape & add a couple of silk rose leaves, makes a very pretty long stemed rose. I've got 1 in craft room I might be able to find. So great for nursing homes, club members,church ladies, Mother & grandmas & neighbor lady. When they finish looking at it & Valentine's day is over they get to eat it!!!!You can put a rose in a vase from TS if you want to get fancy. VEry inexpensive to make!!! Jan

Lindy, awwww.....you don't hate ladybugs. You just hate that they are getting inside! Finding out how they and the stinkbugs are finding easy access to your home can be a challenge, I know. Our problem stopped when we installed a new storm door, but we were lucky. Have you considered contacting an indoor pest control company? (I'm just thinking outloud.) I would think that the better companies will be well versed in all the sneaky habits of these insects and be helpful in eliminating their access. Of course, other companies will just want to spray a bunch of stuff and that's not helpful at all. I sympathize with you.
