They're so awesome about knowing exactly where everything is & telling you how to do something. A stop by one is on my to do list. I'm trying to get some local honey to hopefully help with my crazy allergies.Tracihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05394041890043330124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-85775436914778947162013-06-23T12:04:49.740-07:002013-06-23T12:04:49.740-07:00Ok, I have gotta get some of the blue jars!

There's a bee keeper in the area and he sells his honey to our Ace store. So good! Love your mason jars! You sure got a good deal on those pitchers. :) Enjoy your weekend!Lisa @ Texas Decorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08324912792298425253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-1261726803578988952013-06-22T11:08:23.573-07:002013-06-22T11:08:23.573-07:00Blue mason jars....that's a new one for me.

Many times I don't like going to the big box stores as they are not very friendly and I have found that Home Depot is the worst culprit for women. Just my experience. Hope you are staying cool.

Can't wait to see what you do with yours...........maybe it will give me some ideas............lol<br /><br />We love Ace hardware and I tell you we have found some great deals there, things you would never think of..........we got some really nice lounge chairs for $60.00 a pc.,<br />they were the resin kind but everything else we looked at was $100 or more, and just<br />didn't want to pay that for something that was gonna be out in the weather everyday.<br />Also found a fan for our porch for $15.oo, and we a lot of times call and ask if they<br />have this or that, and much to our surprise they usually have it, and they are so<br />much closer than the other big stores, so of course, we love that!<br /><br />Those lil chicks are so sweet, just enjoy things like that so much........makes you<br />feel like a kid again, huh!! Surprised you didn't come home with a few! lol<br /><br />You have a great weekend, going out to help hubby by mowing the lawn, we have a<br />riding one, so I can do that while he does the edging, weedeating and stuff, so makes it sooo much quicker. We really like to do it in the evening but it has been<br />raining or threatening to rain every evening.<br /><br />Blessings, NellieNellie's Cozy Placehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14619797669030115088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6067086599881836650.post-45123725176534072492013-06-22T09:45:14.887-07:002013-06-22T09:45:14.887-07:00We do have several Ace Hardwares in our area, minu...We do have several Ace Hardwares in our area, minus the animals!
