Flower Bulbs: Nature?s Greatest Gift
Flowers are one of nature's greatest gifts. Their scent, their colors, their shapes? everything about flowers is beautiful. A colorful, cheerful flower can brighten even the darkest day. Even more enjoyable than looking at flowers, though, is growing them. Flowers can be bought from pots and replanted.
They can also be grown from clippings. However, one of the most popular ways of growing flowers is from bulbs and seeds.
Growing flowers outdoors from bulbs is simple; in fact, it is so easy that it's almost foolproof. One of the most important aspects is timing. Bulbs need to be planted about six weeks before the first frost. Bulbs must be planted in an area with good drainage and a lot of sun.
Make sure the soil is loose, and then plant the bulbs about six inches in the ground. (Package directions may vary depending on type and location; when directions differ, following your package.) Try to place the bulb in the hole with the pointed end facing up. Cover the hole and water. Voila! You've planted your flower bulbs.
Flower bulbs and seeds make flower gardens accessible for everyone. They can be grown virtually anywhere.
One idea is to plant them in containers. With container gardens, even apartment dwellers can enjoy the beauty of flowers. Container-grown flower bulbs and seeds also allow growers to defy nature. Flower bulbs can be planted indoors in any season and in any climate, as long as the indoor conditions are favorable for growth.
Flower bulbs are available in many varieties, such as tulips, daffodils, gladiolus, and crocus..
How I Met My Angel
Today I was in rather a whimsical mood, and so instead of my usual "how to" article, I thought I'd create a fairy tale for the child within you to enjoy. When I was just a young soul, on my first incarnation to be a human being, I wasn't sure that I wanted to go to Earth School. I felt so happy here, in Paradise. I did what I liked and I never ran out of time. I played with my friends and we made art by mixing colors out of rainbows, and made music by waving our hands in certain ways in the wind, and made animals to love out of the flowers in the fields.
Sometimes, too, we blew bubbles out of sunshine or created small fountains by collecting the dew from petals. "I don't really want to go to school, Mother God," I said. Azna smiled and shook her head. Her dark tresses fell over her beautiful face. "All souls have to go to school so that they can become gods and run universes when they grow up." "Why would I want to run a universe when I can just play with my friends," I said....

Canning Jar Candles
Canning jar candles are very easy to make, make great gifts, and are only limited by your imagination! To start all you need are some narrow-mouth canning jars, wire ribbon, potpourri, votive candles, small glass votive candle holders, and craft glue or a hot glue gun. If you don't have any old canning jars, you can find some very inexpensively at thrift stores and yard sales. Wire ribbon can be a little expensive. Look for it at yard sales and at craft store clearance sales. The after-Christmas sales a great time to stock up.
One roll of ribbon will make several canning jar candles. Potpourri you can make yourself or buy on sale. Votive candles are inexpensive at stores like Target or Walmart, and you can also find glass votive candle holders very inexpensively at Walmart.

Art Supplies
Stationery that permits you to express yourself: that is what art supplies are. Once you have chosen your medium of expression, be it painting, sculpture, pottery, or installations, you need to put together a few basic supplies so that you can get down to the joyful business of creativity.
Centuries ago, artists used materials that were all around them ?charcoal pieces for making outlines, flowers and fruits to create color, mud and dung to create a canvas, and fingertips or a stick as a brush. Since then, materials have become much more sophisticated, and need to be sourced.
Art supply needs vary depending on the art form. For example, a painter in oils would need a canvas, knife, oil paints, and a palette. A crayonist would need a canvas or paper and crayons, while a lithographer would need etching plates, lithography ink, special tools, ball grounds, litho crayons and pencils.
A potter would need clay, a wheel, and kiln. So, basic necessities change...
