Last week Jon and I took my Mom and Dad out for their 55th Wedding Anniversary. We went to the local Old Country Buffet. Why is all this important? Because right next door to the buffet is a JoAnn Fabrics & Crafts store. Cheap food and lots of it for Jon. -- Hunting for Large Scale Train accessories for me. A perfect date.

Name: Darice Mini Wood Garden Tool Set Item #: 418-8397 JoAnn SKU: 4188397 Size: ~0.5" heads. Quantity: 3 tools Description: Wood Garden tools with metal heads Price: $2.49
You get a pitch fork and two different kinds of shovels. The handles are wood and the heads are metal with red metal band holding them in place.
The handles on the tools were too long. No problem, just take the good old kitchen scissors and trim them to length.

Name: Panacea Foam Prongs (small table) Item #: 60048 JoAnn SKU: 409247 Size: 1.25" round - 1.25" height Quantity: 3 prongs Description: These are used to hold a block of floral foam in a container. Price: $1.29
It pays to wander in a craft store. You can used these Foam Prongs as small tables. Top of prong even has a molded pattern like a table top.
These are real life pots made of clay. These are perfect for a front or back porch. The large pots have a hole in the bottom. Because they do you could grow real seeds in the pots for a great effect. Anybody know what scale alfalfa sprouts are?
