Tongue Too Happy?

You'll need some tongue depressors. You couldn't beat these with a stick-these familiar little wooden slats, 6" long x 3/4" wide x 1/16" thick, ideal for model-making, gardening (Where'd we plant the radishes, Marge?), crafts and school projects. Use them as coffee stirrers that will actually stir something, dip them for pocket-sized paint samples, use 'em as campfire or fireplace starters. Our each is a pack of (50), individually paper-wrapped, which is not to say sterile.

World's Smallest Terrariums

Terraria? You decide. Then you pick a 2-1/2” tall plastic egg-shaped terrarium filled with “sprouting mixture” and the seeds for either a eucalyptus plant, an asparagus fern or an insect-eating hooded pitcher plant. Each sprouts in a week or two on a southern or eastern-facing windowsill and then can be moved into a larger terrarium, we’re assured.

Hey, Jute

You get almost 600 feet of jute twine in (2) 295-foot spools. It's brown (because it's jute) and approx 3/32" dia. For tying stuff up in general, but particularly good for gardeners because jute is all natural and degrades well, so instead of calling it brown, one might say it was green!

Hey, Jute...

Time ago, burlap bags're all over the place, child. We used 'em to make sandbags, protect winterin' plants and keep down weeds, sew up scratchy britches, and collect frogs. Made dog beds out of 'em, fulla wood chips. Mama called 'em tote sacks or croker sacks, and daddy aluss kep' a few in the bed of the pick-up. 'Course daddy went and died and them plastic bags took over. Mama hated that. These here burlap bags used to have coffee inside and they say they're from lotta different countries and your'n might could be anywhere from about (3) to (4) foot long by 28" wide, good fer big dogs or small dogs-lotta frogs either way.
