Colorful Spools

Monday, January 30th, 2012

With keeping with cleaning and purging for 2012 I was cleaning out one of the closets last week when I came a cross a cardboard box you know the ones you buy on the cheap to put stuff away in.

Anyway, as I opened the lid to see what was inside I discovered a lot of craft stuff I had tucked away that now could be very useful to me. Among the items I found in the box was a Ziploc bag with all this colorful embroidery yarn. Instead of thinking of what I can do with the yarn for crafts or everyday use the first thing I thought of course was what a cool photo this would make.

Below are a couple of photos I took while playing around with my camera.

All about the potpourri

Monday, January 16th, 2012

Welcome to the first post of 2012 and my new blog home.

I spent the last of 2011 cleaning house and streamlining all my sites.

I still have some ways to go but I love the direction it’s going.

I have decided to keep the old one up so if you would like to visit the old blog and post you can go here Jeanette Gruszczynski Photography Old Blog.

Anyway, on to the real reason for this post.

I’ve been saving all of the pasta sauce jars I’ve purchased along the way in the hopes of one day making my own pasta sauce.

The jars are so cute they have measurements on them and I thought it would be a great way to recycle and use them.

Well, it dawned on me one day in late November as I was getting ready to decorate for Christmas to use a couple of them and fill them with potpourri and put them in my center butcher block table in my kitchen. I like how it turned it’s simple and serves 2 purposes one to decorate my kitchen while filling the air with a wonderful scent.
