Thank you for your wonderful blog. Also, thank you for your advice about the 'no reply' on my blog. I hope I've fixed that. I read your every post but because I get it via email, I don't often comment.

We would sell the plants at the swap meet. We would cut the milk cartons just like this and put plants in them, with holes in the bottom of the milk jug to let the water drain out the bottom. Free pots :)Easy to carry too! That was way back in the 70's.

I expect to see an upgrade of this with colored detergent bottles with color coded items in it...fabric, markers, etc. ;-)<br />I added a bar to my table as well for freezer paper and brown craft paper. We had to replace some bar holders in the bathroom and repurposed the older ones to my work space. Thanks for the idea.<br />Funny, that brown paper has been in my work area for a long time but my crafty 17 yr old son just noticed it! "Hey mom, can I use some of that brown paper or is it sacred"!<br />I also found some clear plastic soap dishes at the dollar store. They had suction cups on the back to attach to the shower. I took those off and attached them to the short end of my table. One for my bean bag weights and one for my extra large washer weights. Kind of a cool "find" for the 2 year old grandson.themissymomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08819103693231507447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-444221130150558371.post-51634185351773353132012-04-10T08:32:02.610-04:002012-04-10T08:32:02.610-04:00Girl!
