I set up every year at a local heritage festival.  My whole family looks forward to this every year.  Everyone makes something to sell.  My daughter Hannah Bananna makes rag dolls that her aunt Ronda taught her how to make, Elijah makes sock babies that his grammy taught him how to make.  CJ makes christmas star ornaments made out of plumbers straps.  My sweetheart Craig and my son Gabriel (Gabriel loves his daddy so much, he mimics him often), make spiced mulled cider and sell it by the cup.  Craig's parents set up in the booth next to us with antiques that they sell.  It is really a ton of work, but so rewarding.  I work on lavender everything, soaps, linen sprays, solid perfumes, body powders, sachets, cleaners, furniture polish, etc.  whew.  I better get busy.    Just thought I would share something that is important to our family.  I hope I can get the pictures to load.

In Christ,

Geanine

Hi Geanine-
Thanks for visiting my blog, and for adding me to your friends list. I am adding you to mine as well. I very much enjoyed reading your post yesterday about yard sales. Today I read your post about lavender. I started making soap about 6 years ago with my oldest daughter. Lavender is my most favorite oil to work with. The last batch of soap that I made was late last fall, just before the holidays. There just doesn't seem to be enough time to do all the homey things I would love to do. With respect to the slide show, I must admit that my daughter helped me set it up. I am not too gifted in the "techy" dept. Here are some instructions that she gave me; hope they help!
- Go to slideshow.com
-Then upload your images
-Do any customizing on your slide show.
-When you are done customizing, push SAVE.
-Copy the code and paste it into the about me section of your profile.
My daughter said that she needs to refresh herself on how to do it, and said that I need to change my slide show pics. Perhaps she can help me with it today. If we come across any other helpful instructions for you, we'll send them on. Sorry for writing a book!
Blessings-Pam
