The weekend is here!
We just got finished with our first week of shooting, YIPPY !!!. From beads to saying cheese and wine bottle projects to candles wrapped in twine.
We are so excited about sharing all our projects with you. We have such a great crew/team that we work with. We want to thank them all. The weekend is here and the heat is going to hit the 100’s in Los Angeles, so looks like we will be visiting the beach. I know Cathie, will be bringing her hand made beach bag made from towels and I’ll bring the lavender lemonade straight from the back yard.

New Episodes!
More episodes are on the way! Yesterday we began filming for our next 78 episodes and we made our day! (film lingo for completing all our tasks)
The day went off with out a hitch, except for the air conditioning - Steve and I were roasting under the hot lights – in Los Angeles we are going through a heat wave and the AC units were not pulling their weight. I think we are picking up a few old fashioned fans to help beat the heat and Erin (she helps with our hair and make-up) picked up a few battery operated hand held fans. Today’s forecast, cool as cucumbers and we are celebrating a birthday on set – yummy cake at lunch! Tomorrow my mom arrives to check out the crafty creations.

Infusing
Have you ever wanted to try infusing your own liquor but you were afraid you might mess it up and spend too much money on an experiment? Well fear not. We have been infusing for years with great success and infusing is as easy as pie and as delicious. You will only need a few household items, a base liquor and your infusing ingredients.
Apple Infused Vodka Project From Creative Juice
This July 11th and 15th you can check out our episode of Creative Juice called Apples and Pears. In this episode we will give you the low down on a basic recipe for infusing vodka as well as some super fun projects.
If you wanna learn more about infusing, we suggest you check out Imbibe Magazine. Imbibe is a new magazine that focuses on cocktail culture. We helped out on a recent feature all about infusing. You can check out the link below or pop into any bookseller to pick up a copy.
The combinations for infusing are endless and you really can’t mess it up. So pickup some delicious summer fruits and make your own tasty concoctions.
Post a comment and let us know your favorite infusions!
