Every day is a blessing. But, to me, birthdays are extra special. My day started with rain (yay!). Followed by birthday coffee, birthday presents, and day 5 of vacation.
Having a birthday near (and sometimes on) Thanksgiving means that most of my childhood birthday cakes featured pilgrim candles. For most of my adult years, I celebrate my birthday by taking the entire week of Thanksgiving off for vacation. And I LOVE it.
I spent part of today shopping. Yes, like a school girl 🙂 And I crossed off nearly everything on my list.
Then when I came home I set out to start (and complete) a project that has been on my Todo list for a while – Do-it-yourself Flaming Rock Bowls. I saw these online a few months ago and wanted to give it a try.
I made 3. 1 broke. So I have 2 left. The shot above is of one of the bowls, curing.
I’ll light them up this Thanksgiving. Stay tuned.

Happy Birthday, Sheila!
That firebowl looks really cool… and easy to make!
Thanks Michaela . They look much more rustic than the originals in the picture from Restoration Hardware but they should look nice at night when lit.
Happy Thanksgiving!
