Yep, I took the pledge...

Hopefully, I can stick to this one... I would love it if everyone could go "green" and handmade. I need to get serious and do my part in conservation and recycling efforts- still need to do some research and just get the ball rolling. This weekend is the Garden and Tea show and I'm really looking forward to it. Ooops, gotta run- be back later! xo

goodies...

I will be taking part in the 2nd annual Garden tour and Tea Party on Sat. June 14th. Here's to hoping that it will be a huge success for our West End businesses and the Wild Iris Garden Club- part of the proceeds will go to helping our local library (a place that's very dear to my heart) create beautiful gardens. Here's the info...

(GARDEN TOUR ONLY)
Friday June 13 from 1pm - 7pm
(GARDEN TOUR & TEA PARTY*)

The tours will have art by local artists on display at various houses. The art can be purchased at the booths set up in Atchison's Historic West End District along 8th Street between Commercial and Kansas Ave. While you are there, sample some tea as you will have stumbled right into the heart of our Garden Tea Party!

Tea will be served in a vintage teacup that is yours to keep.
