Firecrackers; These are made from 1 landscape timber  I purchased at the local Home Depot.(36", 32",28") The stars are cut from 1/4 in wood tied on with rope. The fuse is rope twisted with wire and glued in to a drilled hole at the top of the timber. Paint the top of the firecracker blue about 10in. The bottom is painted red and white stripes.Tie rope around log where blue meets stripes. Enjoy!

Apple candlesticks

I love these they look and feel like summer.

Summer Apples

These are really fun and are easy to make. Made from a 4x4. They are 4x4x4. Sand the edges heavily and drill a hole for stem. Add fabric for a leaf and a branch for stem. The box I made from cedar fencing.

Fourth of July

A little early- just had an idea and had to get it made!!

Clay Pot Candy Jar

So easy to make!! All you need is a clay pot, clay saucer, glass candle votive ( from the dollar store), wood knob and some high gloss paint.
You paint just the outside of the pot and only the top of the lid. Paint your wood knob also. Glue the votive to the the pot with some clear caulk and also your knob. Just like that you have a very cute candy jar!! It won't even take you an hour!! Enjoy!!
