The past week or so I have been down for the count so to say.. Just when there is so much to do I contact something.... Thank you, Lord I THINK I am on the road to recovery..
As I can only sit I have worked on a few Handmade Holiday...
A couple of primitive table runners and a prim journal....
I had fun painting up a few tags for gifts. I am NOT a painter but when you glue the flakes on it is not so noticeable. LOL..
I also did up a few Soup Herb Bags...
I thought I would give you the recipe...
SOUP HERB BAGS
2 parts dried lovage
1 part dried parsley
1 part dried thyme
1 part summer savory
2 bay leaves
3 whole cloves
I used teaspoons for the measurement...
Place heaping teaspoons onto a 4 inch cheesecloth.
Tie tightly with a white string.
Store in a closed container...
In winter drop a bag into a potful of soup during the last hour.
You can make them up and place in a mason jar.
Then just decorate the jar. I used a piece of lunch bag for a cover and then decorated a tag and tied it on...
Wouldn't they be lovely in a basket with some soup makings and perhaps a wood spoon and napkins?
I was blessed to have had some of my own herbs that I grew this summer and dried but they are always available at the Bulk stores.
Thanks so much for visiting. I am sorry that I have not posted much the last bit but perhaps things will improve....please, Lord...
God bless...
