These are BIG spiders. This one wasn't as big as others but the photo captures some of the beautiful golden color in their webs. If you get a million of these guys together, you might be able to weave a fabric like this one at the American Museum of Natural History blogs.nationalgeographic.com/blogs/news/chiefeditor/2009/...

I won a free Kitchen Towel from Athena Creates! Owner, Seamstress, and Bird-E Towel Creator Kerri Halligan even threw in three Bird-E towels!

Bird-E Towels replace wasteful paper towels for cleaning around the home. They can be used in all the ways paper towels and regular towels can be used AND they are durable and easy to wash.

Receiving Bird-E Towels for free is like saying, "Here, have this product for free AND keep all the money you'll ever spend on paper towels, too." You can order from Athena Creates online and purchase from her at the Riverside Arts Market in Jacksonville, Florida. Find this company easily on Facebook.

My first attempt at making a hobo bag. It would've been bigger but there was a tragedy in the process which left me with less fabric. It's the scroll fabric with black canvas cotton and a red lining. I added a magnetic closure. I already know everything I did wrong and what I'll improve on in the future. In the background of this shot is our parakeet, Budgie.

The 1 ounce hand-shaped soap are samples. They're made from the scraps of the bars, rolled out and cut with a cookie cutter into little hands.

5 ounce bars 3" x 3-1/2" x 1" with the unique appearance of handmade soap bars. Since this is 100% Olive Oil soap, it's still curing and will be for a while longer. All that yellow will fade into a creamy-looking off-white as the bar hardens into a quality soap bar.
