Tools/Equipment

I have been looking for an inexpensive table for my peg loom.  Looks were not so much of an issue, so long as it was sturdy.  I figured I could always paint the table if it was scratched up.  I may need to use clamps with the loom, so I didn't want the top of the table to be too thick.  I wanted a table long enough for the loom, or at least the loom legs, but not too wide and take up extra space I wasn't using.  When the loom is not in use, I can put it in the storage with the table.   I have the largest size of loom Dewberry Ridge makes (I think).  It is 49" long.

I went to 2 antique stores and looked on the internet and I found a sofa table I thought would work.  When I got to the store, I realized that the sofa table was too short, but in the store was another table that worked.  



A Facebook fiber group that I am in, sells raw wool.  A few of the women in the group were using herb and seed dryers to hold their drying wool.  I had to give it a try.  It works great!  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071NZL77N/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1  It was only $19.44.

Do you have any special equipment you use for your crafts that you would like to share?  

I hope you had a great weekend.  I had a quiet weekend.  Dawnie

Home Made Pie


This photo is of my cousin and aunt.  My aunt is holding a pie she made.  It was taken at my grandmother's home in Downs, Kansas.  See the coffee pot in the far right on the table.  I love the apron!


I tried to merge my Microsoft word file with this blog.  I worked for a couple of hours and finally gave up for now.  I copied an antique doily and tried to merge a photo inside it.  The file is in my Microsoft word file and it turned out perfect, but I can't show you in this blog.  Maybe some day I can get them to merge.  LOL  Here is the doily............



I hope you had a great weekend.  I baked two batches of cookies and canned applesauce.  What fun things did you do? 


The photo above is of my uncle, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother and great-great-great-grandmother.  The oldest one on the left looks like her teeth are missing and it is so adorable!!!!!!!!!!!
We may not all be beautimus in everyone's eyes, but we all have beauty!
