How often do you have to do that? How do you keep stuff neat enough for open shelves? <br /><br />I LOVE the ruffled vase. My husband has relatives in Norway too.

My workshop is in awful shape from now clay dust and the stray times that I used the saw. I am sure that dust is working itself up to the top floor. I like all your blues.L.

I have been watching for strawberries, have you seen the prices? (crazy).

Glad you are able to do it and keep crossing the items off the list. I need to up my game since our kids will be here to celebrate together in a couple of weeks. It is the best time since both families will be gone either the week before or during Christmas.
