This is what I did with the red and blue basket. The set is now in my etsy shop. There are two plates with stars, stripes and eagles. One cup has stars and the other has stripes. The napkins with rings match the cloth.
Now that the winners have been announced I can show you my "Picnic in the Park". I made all of the food except for three slices of the watermelon. Burgers, potato salad and cherry pie...yum!
I've been happily married for 33 years to my high school sweetheart and we have three great kids. All are young adults. I'm currently working part time as an instructional assistant at the local elementary school. My mini life is especially important to me because it takes me away (better than a bubble bath!) from the stresses of real life. I've been involved with mini-ing since the late 1980s with a break for about 10 years while my children were young.
My faith and my family are very important to me. I am so thankful that God blessed me with the gift of creativity!
