What to do with old insulators: Make a tree charm

We found a couple of insulators with eyelet holes and kept them because we thought they were cool. Jennifer just recently made them into tree charms. Check them out!

One of our tumbled and drilled rocks ends this charm...

Any beads will do! How charming is this?

Common Milkweed

Why The Common Milkweed? Well many reasons: 1 - It's important! Milkweed is the only larval food for the Monarch Butterfly and food for many other invertebrates. 2 - It's common, yet possesses singular beauty and therefore represents all the beauty in and around us (right under our noses and on "this side of the fence") and the potential for that common beauty to be recognized, expressed and celebrated. 3 - Its persistence in less than ideal growing conditions proves that the beauty contained in the common endures.
