Lots of sides to this monument for Charles West, founder of the Cincinnati Art Museum. He is buried in Spring Grove Cemetery where I walk with friends frequently. So many names that are familiar to me - streets and businesses and families I knew.

jrb451, they just sit inside one another. Once in place they don't move around. There's a watering system that starts at the top also and trickles down the entire system. You can buy different configurations/sizes also and a wheeled base to turn it. I thought I might have to go back and get that but it seems to get enough sun on all sides so no turning needed. I'm hoping to grow some greens in it over the Winter. GreenStalk Gardening System | GreenStalk Vertical Garden

nhbaskets those are truly beautiful! I'm Jewish and I'm already thinking of how else to use them besides on a tree!

Annie that is quite a sophisticated pattern for a teen - to say nothing of the the beautiful, consistent work. My teen needle point is in the botto of a landfill somewhere, I'm sure. It was, um, a valiant attempt.

arcy that was sweet!

This is my version of a barn quilt, hanging on our porch. Painted on wood from trees on our property and wood

burned lettering.

And this is was a gift to my DIL (who lives with DS in that Tiny House). Binder with wood covers, filled with family recipes. Her heritage is Mexican, native American and Puerto Rican so I wanted the designs to reflect that in a whimsical way.

Ooh, a better one. I made these for a Japanese themed cooking club. The icing is green tea flavored! So much fun to make.

Special thanks to all my friends at Home Dec Convo for joining the fun this week.

If you want to see more, join us on The Kitchen Table where I run this thread and a daily "Smiles" thread that many enjoy as well.

My one and only attempt at anything needle-worky, ca. 1997. I found I got obsessed with finishing it and stayed up way too late many nights laboring on it until it was done. Looking back at it now, I can't imagine how I ever decided to even take it on. Good for you, twenty-five-years-younger jakabedy!
