When you fill matchboxes for a living (or partial living), what do you do with all of the matches? Aline has filled several hundred matchboxes, meaning she has emptied several times 3200 matches. After a few mixing bowls have been filled, it begins to seem like a fire hazard, and so we staged a bonfire. With great fanfare and ceremony, we lit the matches outside on a rock and then jumped back. All in all, it was a very satisfying blaze.

Athens Indie Craftstravaganzaa
Okay. I realize we have to get better at taking pictures. We'll read up on it and practice. I promise. Also, when I started this blog, I promised I wouldn't go remiss and fail to post. Alas, I've gone remiss. We'll try to do better. But we have been doing admirable things, namely getting ready for the Athens Indie Craftstravaganzaa this Saturday. The Green Griffin will have a booth from noon-7 pm at the corner of Clayton and Pulaski Streets. If you live in the area, please stop by. Shown is the banner that Aline made for our booth. We'll have matchbox greetings, felted wonderfuls, hair flowers, flower pens, and fairy wonderfuls. See you there.
