New Forest to Fuel Country Crafts

Wow… what a great idea! The British Council for Culture and Tourism is planting a forest in the city of Kirkham in order to provide woods for crafts and bio-fuels. The trees, which will be harvested every five to six years, and will provide wood for local craftspeople.

The trees will also help fight climate change, enhance the environment, provide additional leisure opportunites, and also serve as an educational asset for the school children of the area. This is a wonderful way to make crafts environmentally conscious, and something I hope the government here in the United States takes note of.

Happy Crafting!

Thanks to Everyone Who Asked About the New Puppy

Jennifer — Thu, 24 Aug 2006 11:33:00 +0000

I wanted to thank everyone who asked about our new puppy, Ginger. Ginger is a Golden Doodle – a cross between a Golden Retriever and a Standard Poodle. She will grow to about 40 – 50 pounds, and she has hair (so she doesn’t shed). And, as you can see, she’s just about the cutest thing in the world!

So thanks for asking about Ginger. She’s doing great, but I’m a bit tired. Having a new puppy in the house is almost as tiring as having a new baby. I forgot all about the middle of the night potty breaks, and the early morning feedings. But, the kids have already fallen in love.

Here’s a picture of Ginger:

I’ve got some great crafting business news coming up soon. I’ve been working on a complete Crafting Business Guide, so stay tuned for details. It shouldn’t be more than a few weeks!
