Announcing the Keepers Meeting and such....


Hello everyone.. 
How art thou?  

Just sharing a few pics with you tonight.. 
Just pics of the ordinary... 

The first pic is of a little mason ring pumpkin..
I found it on the Internet and then when I went on Google to get the link for you I found many... 

There were some that were painted orange and some that were rusted and such... 

So ... 
I decided not to bother with the link... 

All you do is tie at least 16 rings together with wire or string and then glue in cinnamon stick or some used 3 sticks and I used bay leaves but they mostly used felt or fabric.. 

Whatever turns your crank.. 
I loved the rusted one but I did not have time to rust them so voila.. 
At least it gives you an idea for you table or what have you... 

The next pic is of an old pine tree we see every 
time we go to Sussex.. 
Isn't the view fabulous?  

And then I finally started cleaning and organizing my Sun Room and such... 

Will I ever get the house all in order at the same time?? 
Please Lord.. smile...

I mostly wanted to post to thank you sweet ladies for all your dear comments last post.. 
You guys are wonderful and dear... 
I appreciate each and every one of you... 
Thank you... xo 

Also.. 
Just a reminder that there is a Keepers Meeting (finally) this Saturday at 9  am.. 
Please email me for details..

I am calling it Harvest Day at Keepers..

We will learn some things we can do with apples not only to eat but to smell and a prim tip with them ... 
Also a treat with zucchini and a harvest salad recipe.. 
And a prim harvest garland, too...

The kitchen will be the room we focus on for our lesson.. 
And... 
Well..  come and find out.. smile.. 


For the details you know where to find me.. 
keepersofthehome@hotmail.com 

That's all for tonight..
Take care, dear hearts.. 
Hope to hear from you.. 
Hugs...

  1. I love the jar ring pumpkin, very cute. The view is marvellous, and your dining room is lovely. I love your French doors there. I have a room something like that, it is on the other side of the living room, but it would make a great dining room, though. One day, I would like to do that, I would so love to entertain and have room for people to eat in my home. God knows.
    I hope your smile and joy is back, dear heart.
    Love and hugs, Cindy

  2. Good evening Faye. It's getting late and I'm going to climb the wooden stairs as soon as I finish this. :) A beautiful view indeed. Look at all the colours. I love your dining room. A lovely old dining set and dough bowl and lots of china goodies too. I hope your Keepers have a nice meeting on Saturday. This is the weekend of our Bible school 'girls' reunion at my house so I am busy preparing for it. Cleaning like crazy!! I think there are 14 coming and half may stay overnight with me. It'll be a fun time as always. Have a blessed week. Pam

    You saying that cracked me up.

    I got to thinking - I wished I wouldn't have thrown all of the MAJORLY rusty ones away last season - I still have some - but these rings were O-ol-l-d. They didn't keep the seal tight... anyway. Yes!!! I've made a few of these pumpkins myself and it's fun to see everyone's take on them or addition to their creativity.
    I'm using a bunch of them for a family gathering this coming Saturday and there is no glue involved - because I'll be needing to take them apart,soon, for applesauce. ;)

    1. Hello my friend.. I didn't glue them together, either as they don't pull apart unless you move them.. smile..
      Thanks for your sweet visit.. xo
