You can also make bowls out of them - won't hold liquid stuff, but popcorn, jewelry, anything like that. You turn the oven on to a 200-250. Place metal bowl or pot in center of baking pan. Place record in center of inverted pot or bowl and place in oven. It will start to get floppy-looking about 7-8 minutes. Take the baking pan with everything on it out of oven. You can either use oven mitts to shape it a little more or use another bowl to put it in to shape it if you want another shape. Let it cool 10-15 minutes. Makes really cute gifts - especially if someone likes a certain group!

Hi Tammy ! My son just turned two years old and I am already on his third year album. Where does the time go? What I have done is to begin the albums with a beautiful poem. It can be about what is to come for the future or simply what he has already accomplished. You can find many sites with beautiful poems and if you don't like the wording... simply change it! I am ending my albums with a page that is specifically titled...Love Letter. His second album has a vellum envelope that I created and within it I placed a hand written love letter to him inside. It's really special. Not only because it is in my hand writing but because I noted special times that I will always remember in that year's album. Hope this gives you an idea ! Good luck !

Saw a bunch of the purse hangers at SteinMart last Sunday. They were mixed in with something similar to my Finders KeyPurse, a handy item to make it easy to find your keys in your purse. Jodi-

Thank you for the Burlington recommendation, and how to get a list, there are so many miniatures from which to choose! I adore all my roses but minis are just special. It's very fulfilling to grow them in pots anywhere there is a sunny space. For me the reward factor is disproportionately high for the effort. The minis I'm already growing are Pierrine, Bees Knees, Denver's Dream, Salute, Cutie Pie, You're the One, Millie Walters, Tiddly Winks, and Whimsy. Through Burlington I now get to add to my collection: Twister, Roller Coaster, Doris Morgan, Autumn Splendor, Green Ice, Angel Pink Cl, and Jeanne LaJoie. I wanted others but were out of stock but now I know where to go first next season. Not just minis, I also picked up Iceberg, Mons Tillier, and Grandmas Hat. :)
