Masks and more

A package came in the mail.

It was from Shirley...she had a foaling contest and I was the closest guess on the date that Midnight Moondance was born. Thank you so much Shirley! The masks are just perfect!


Our weather has turned real warm. 

I am staying busy.  Far Guy is wood carving on the Christmas Ornaments out at the patio table.  I  join him for a short time...I have not carved in a little while so I am breaking in those wrist/fingers slowly so my hands don't sleep all night and keep me awake.

I began the someday project that was INSIDE the milk can. It is a many step project that involved some research and trial and error.  It is a labor of love for sure.  It will take me all summer to finish...maybe longer.

  3. Congratulations! Pretty masks and I started following Shirley as I love horses! It's been in the 80's this week...better than the 90's last week! Yes, get those hands in shape. Your secret project has got my curiosity up!

  4. I will have to tell my friend who made the masks that they are now in Michigan! She has made so many of them locally.
    I am super curious about the milk can project too!

  5. That milk can project...hmmmm. Sounds interesting.
    I like those masks! I need to get some like that. The ones I made aren't so grand looking. I also should get some disposable ones to actually leave in the vehicle for those times I forget to bring one along.

  8. The milk can plot thickens! I am finding it amazing how many masks we require. I picked up four from my son's neighbor who has set up a storefront on her front porch (the coffee can honor system). We made a second trip for five more. I also ordered some cute ones online, but those don't have the top wire for glasses wearers. We use them once and put them in the laundry and it seems we are always running low. I have a sparse supply of paper masks that I once purchased for my grandkids to play Doc McStuffins. I do find them lighter and easier to breath thru, but I hate to order more when I have perfectly good cloth ones. . .

  16. The milk can project sounds interesting and now I'm really curious. Those are nice masks. Dennis surprised me with another one that he purchased for me so I can keep one in both the car and the truck. I would have to wait in the truck if we went somewhere because I only had one mask. It's nice to have a second one since this looks like it will be hanging around for awhile.
    Blessings,
    Betsy

  17. I've seen some of that style of mask and I think they would be more comfortable than the pleated ones that I got. Not that wearing a mask is ever going to be comfortable but still...
    I'm so curious about your milk can project!!
