I had an order for just a fruit and vegetable display for a wedding,
the family did their own cooking.
It was a BEAUTIFUL wedding!
Absolutely beautiful!!!
Olivia went with me, 4 hands are better than 2; she took these pictures.
One side was vegetables…
the other side fruit.
This was built up with a few boxes, lined with plastic wrap,
then lettuce and cabbage leaves pinned in with floral pins.
I really enjoy making these!

Titus 2:3 says that we are to be
"...teachers of good things...".
We believe that part of these good things are practical skills that we all need in every day life to care for our family and neighbors.
One of our primary responsibilities as parents is equip our children with the skills and tools to one day be productive, well rounded adults. Children need to be exposed to many different areas of work. Not only should they know how to work, but they should want to work.
May the favor of the Lord our God rest upon us;
establish the work of our hands for us-
yes, establish the work of our hands.
Psalm 90:17

Linda says:
This is beautiful. Just curious – How many hours does it take to do something like this?
Kathy says:
Linda,
About an hour to shop, a couple hours to wash, chop and packaging in ziplocks/plastic wrap to transport and then maybe 30 minutes to put together. Total about 4 hours.
