Pumpkins.

Cindy Goff — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 21:21:22 +0000

Not a pumpkin “foodie”but love everything else pumpkin. I change out the Longaberger Flower Box seasonally and for right now it’s PUMPKINS! Made of maple, just like all of our baskets with a wooden stem. Sage, Spice or Maple Leaf Yellow in Small $20, Medium $25 or Large $30. These Pumpkins are available all fall but you’ll want to get ‘em soon so that you can enjoy them too! I also used the Fruiting Ivy (a big hit with my customers!) and our new Napkins for some more color.

One small and two mediums shown in the Flower Box. Fruiting Ivy is placed in first and then I added the pumpkins. Placed it on 2 Golden Fields Napkins that I layed out as a runner.

This one I used the Crimson Hill Napkins as the runner. Love both of these new fabrics so I may just be changing it back and forth. =)

One of my favorite things…

Cindy Goff — Sat, 03 Sep 2011 23:27:44 +0000

I love this little Salt and Pepper Caddy. At just $22 it’s a keeper. Many of you know that I also have this “thing” for paper napkins. This Wrought Iron Caddy works perfectly to hold a pack or more of small ones. Makes me happy!

Caddy with red checked napkins and the NEW Travel Cup.

Here’s what Mary did with her first Wrought Iron Organizational Unit. She liked it so much that she ordered another! Can’t wait to see what she does with it!

Deal of the Week!

Cindy Goff — Mon, 04 Apr 2011 03:32:43 +0000

Thought you might like to see my NEW Wrought Iron Organizational Unit. I waited anxiously for it to come and yes, the BIG box on my front porch got a little shriek from me. It arrived from Ohio in a week’s time, all assembled and ready to find a home in our home. Perfect timing since we had just redone the family room, so it not only has a purpose, it looks cool too. =) Our family room has taken on the role of “travel room”. Places we have lived that are still dear to our hearts. More pictures to come but for now, enjoy!

This is the shelf "naked". Originally the shelf was $250 and now it's available for $99 - completely assembled! Shelves are extra and while quantities last. At the FACTORY STORE.

Picked up a couple of City Monopoly Games. The Salem one found a spot right above the Stand.

I emptied the games and put the pieces into mason jars. Added the wooden chalkboard tag - Games and set them all in a vintage 80's Cake Basket!

Our favorite NFL team, the Denver Broncos Market is filled with card games etc.

I love to collect old wool stadium/car blankets. Here's a couple in another 80's Large Gathering Basket. Love the turquoise thermos too!

Wrought Iron Retiring August 31st

Cindy Goff — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 20:11:51 +0000

Longaberger has awesome new products coming in September…but that means we have to say goodbye to some seasoned favorites August 31st. Dang it.

Longaberger’s Wrought Iron/Foundry Collection can be used inside or out. A protective spray is recommended for outside use.

Wrought Iron Easel at $18 is a sturdy tool that will hold up to 12 lbs! Meant to be used on a tabletop or hung on the wall. (screws and plastic anchors are included) These are perfect for pictures, books, albums, mirrors, plates and serving trays. These have a home in just about every room in my house and I have extras for seasonal decorating.

7 1/2"l x 2 1/8"w x 6 1/8"h Space for display is a good 2". With rubber feet to protect your surface and keep it in place.

Wrought Iron Umbrella Surround @ $40. I know this speaks summer, but I’m using this for SO many different things that it is sure to become an all year go to piece at our house. Longaberger’s Wrought Iron is the best quality and very sturdy for every day use. Just today, I used it for a Saturday brunch, to hold crocks filled with silverware and napkins, drink glasses and a bottle of sparkly champagne on my farm table.

Features clasp and hinge to open/close to fit around a Table Umbrella.

Wrought Iron Flower Box. Loving this! Priced at $59 it’s another Summer Time favorite that can be used year round. Great in a bathroom with towels or toiletries. Set it on your kitchen counter and add your crocks or canisters to it. I’ve put mine on our fireplace mantle and will change it out seasonally. Moving on from All-American Summer into Fall with gourds and pumpkins.

You can use this on a tabletop, counter or hang it up. Retiring 6" Flower Pots fit in it beautifully.

TLC FOODS – Tropical Key Lime Mix

Cindy Goff — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 02:48:32 +0000

We enjoyed the Layered Bean Dip but had to have some sweets too, so I made Key Lime Vanilly Cups. Oh sister, this is so good!

Key Lime Vanilly Cups

1/2 a package of Tropical Key Lime Mix (this leaves you 1 and 1/2 packages for something else!)
1 8 oz light cream cheese – softened
1 8 oz fat free cool whip or whipped topping
Vanilla Wafers – 32 cookies

Mix together Key Lime Mix, cream cheese and cool whip until smooth and creamy. Chill. In Cupcake Cups add a Vanilla Wafer to the bottom, then a spoonful of the filling. Add another Vanilla Wafer and more filling. These soften quickly so chill until ready to serve. Makes 16. Enjoy!

I prepared them on a cookie sheet and put it in the fridge to chill. Another benefit with Longaberger Pottery...it gets cold quickly and stay cold. It's vitrified!

I set them on the Star Plates on the Bronze Leaf Center Piece. Thanks Heather G for the tip!

See the Key Lime Mix in the picture? Lots of recipes for this mix.

Easy to make and fun to eat!

The plates and drinks ready for guests.

Good eats, good fun and good friends! Weaving Friendships!

Quickly Becoming A Longaberger Favorite!

Cindy Goff — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 23:22:00 +0000

I am LOVING the New Plate Stands. I have reached for them several times to use while entertaining. Adds height to any table and they are great for Plant Stands too. At first I thought I would try them without the WoodCraft Shelves and see what I can do with them. I compromised with using my Pizza Pan, Dinner Plates and an older WoodCrafts Lid. Not ideal, but it worked. So excited that September 1st, ALL of our WoodCraft Shelves come in Black! The Black goes beautifully with the Wrought Iron and I’m looking forward to getting my NEW BLACK WoodCraft Shelves to go with the Plate Stands. I’m pretty sure you will want the Shelves too…so order them together and pick the color of stain that works best for you.

Holds a Sun Tea Jar...one of my favorite uses.

Perfect fit on the counter. Longaberger Beverageware works great with this set up.

My kitchen Hoosier makes a great drink station too.

Even in Oregon, I make Sun Tea year round.
