I chit every day O.o Hahahaha, lol... great video though... it was very nice and a great howto!

@MIgardener Thanks a bunch! I was in a silly mood talking about chitting-we cold have done a whole video on that : ) I'd like to do more comical videos - we have several in the works using interesting materials like dry ice and potentially funny themes like Little Miss Squash Blossom vs. the Tomato Hornworm Fairy.

Great burlap bag!!! where do you find the bags?

[homegrownfunfamily]

@MrSquareart I ordered a huge amount of bags at once and got a good deal from a supplier in Ohio. If you have coffee houses nearby, you can ask them for one. The places in San Diego have few to spare. I found out they donate them to the zoo and people are now using the bags for all sorts of crafts. I bring extra to the Vista, CA Farmers Market every Saturday if you are nearby. Thanks for taking a look at the video!
