joann - just wanted to say thanks for posting the 'craft of the day'. Quite a few simple, quick ideas.

This is a great site I dont have little kiddies anymore but some great ideas be sure to sign up for emails etc I get lots of crochet emails and I think it is from the main co. love it

There is a factory and outlet store about 20 miles north of us called Yankee Candle....They are said to be the largest decorator candle company in the USA today...It originally started in the late 70's by a young high school boy who was making candles as a hobby. I think I shall make a photo walkabout up there in a few days.

I have made these a few times, and after the first time of not sealing them, I learned: use MARINE varnish to seal them - otherwise, they will get milky and nasty from drinks sitting on them, and especially hot drinks.
