Earth Day and Giveaway

Even though I'm a day late (and as some say, a dollar short) :) I just found out about this great post on Country Girl's blog for Earth Day. Her blog has some great info and is well worth you're checking out. Take a peek at some of her other posts as well as checking out the giveaway for Earth Day. Let's keep thinking about the Earth every day, not just once a year. To find out about the giveaway, click on the title of this post. To check out her blog as a whole click on her blog name in this post.

Earth Day

Today is EARTH day. What is everyone doing to help the earth? I always try to plant something. And I don't use chemicals in my yard or garden at any time. I recycle most of the year too. And with my glass I try to recycle bottles, shells, etc. for some of my art. Then I also create things to help the wildlife, like my birdbaths, birdfeeders, butterfly baths, etc. We need all those critters to keep our gardens/yards growing. You can check out some of my glass items at KayzKreationz. Will be a new birdfeeder/birdbath/butterfly bath listed tonight.
What do you do to help the earth & environment?

So, has the Moon grown? Candle holders if that's still not enough light for you.

Blue tealight candle holders If the full moon tonight looks unusually large, it is not your imagination – it is the biggest and brightest full moon to be seen for 15 years.
Each month the Moon makes a full orbit around the Earth in a slightly oval-shaped path, and tonight it will swing by the Earth at its closest distance, or perigee. It will pass by 356,613km (221,595 miles) away, which is about 28,000km closer than average.
The unusual feature of tonight is that the perigee also coincides with a full moon, which will make it appear 14 per cent bigger and some 30 per cent brighter than most full moons this year – so long as the clouds hold off from blocking the view.
The next closest encounter with a full moon this large will not be until November 14, 2016.

Cool, huh. But if that bigger, bright full moon doesn't give you enough light, check out these candle holders that will add some romantic light to your life. They're at http://kayzkreationz.etsy.com/
