What is going on? I just answered Pennys post and included a pic and get a message saying it had to be improved first.. HUH?

Anyway....I bought somepinecones for a cute orney and they reek of cinnamin. I hate it it burns my eyes. Any way to get the stink out of it??????? Anynhelp greatly appreciated.....

Thanks, Eileen

Morning Eileen nice to see you here again. I was thinking about you..HONEST! You know many moons ago you did the foam gum holders? Yep, many moons ago. LOL I think there were everything from cats to ghosts. You wouldn't happen to have the pattern still would you?

Anyways, not sure what is happening around here with posts. I had trouble the other day as well. sigh...but I hope I'm the Penny you were trying to post for and I get to see what you were doing? As for your pinecones. I wash mine in cool water and then if you can handle it put them in an oven for about 5 to 10 minutes on 275. This should take care of any smell in them and dry them out again. I hope this helps.

I have had some problems with posting here the past week to! Like you it said had to be approved first, I do not know why, I was posting Christmas crafts on that post, I would put in 20 or so and the whole list would be wiped out. And they never show up later either! Only one time in almost three years have they finally showed up. It was around this time last year that I also had a hard time posting things. It's also the time that Grandma Bonnie couldn't get on any more. I do not know whats up with HGTV!

And I couldn't get on at all the other day.!!!!

Penny...I have some of the gum huggers. Anything in particular you want? I think most of mine came from Debi'O and a member who is no longer on the boards. Will dig them out and scan them.
