Pot Holders For A Cause


Olive has become a pot holder making machine. Some of you may remember when she received her loom for her 5th birthday in January. A few month ago she learned how to finished the edges of the pot holders all by herself and she now makes about three a day.
She plans to sell her pot holders at our holiday MOPS bazaar and will donate $1 for each pot holder sold to St. Jude Children's Hosptial. Her goal is to make and sell 40 pot holders for $2 a piece. I am very proud of her for making this decision.


These are some common uses for pot holders at our house:  a coaster, a barbie blanket, and a handle holder.
Olive says that "potholders are the perfect stocking stuffer"!

  2. What a good idea for Olive to donate half her earnings. She is learning early to think of others. I use mine every day as a coaster.

    Love, Carolyn
