The Bees Knees

                                           Hello friends!
                            When my bee inventory came in,
                            I said to Bob that he needed to do
                               a Facebook post and title it 
                                       "The Bees Knees"
           He tells me no one is going to know what that means.
                                     So I ask you friends,
                     have you ever heard of this saying?
            I was brought up with this meaning a high quality,
                                        or being the best.
 

So to go along with my black and yellow theme
for Spring, my mind wandered to bees.


This order came in after my other one.
(The bee gnomes light up)
So fun!


 I decided to have the bees on the cabinet
that faces the front door.
Its the first display folks see when coming it.


Hopefully it brings a smile to those seeing it.


It must have as most is already sold.
I have already rotated this display to 
an Easter one now.

In other news,
looks like March is going out like a lion here.
More snow is headed our way
 today into tomorr0w. 
Right now it is freezing rain. 

Thank you everyone for loving my rug.
I had fun hooking it even though I dont 
hook often as much as my other blogging friends.

My first Halloween project is looking good.
Below is a tease pic of my latest creation.
I have a few made already.


***Hint***
It will become a poisonous item.
Hand sewn using all wool for these.

Well Hope everyone has a 
Happy Hump Day!

Bees Knees Blessings To All!
Janice

  2. I've also heard of Bees Knees. Those are the only gnomes I've ever liked. The gnome rug patterns and other gnome items I've seen turn me off. So you made a good choice.

  3. Oh I love the bee theme...so many fun ideas! (Bee happy, bee nice, bee humble) And yes, the bees knees...I always think of the bees knees as something really special. Although I bet my kids may not know what it means...I'll have to ask! Mary

  4. I've heard of the Bees Knees cocktail which has gin, lemon juice and honey in it. A cocktail which was invented during the prohibition but I never had one, lol.

    Your bees theme is really attractive and will vanish from the shelves quickly. The cheery yellow is really eye catching.

    Hugs, Julia

  5. I am so sick of Sprinter. Hope you don't get the predicted storm.

    Of course I know the Bees Knees. Does that date me? (I fear it does!) Those gnomes are darling. I might have to felt one like that for a bee-keeping friend.

  7. Not only do I know the "bees knees" colloquialism, I still use it. It's right up there with "the cat's meow" and "the cat's pajamas." Color me dated, color me strange. ~Robin~ (Cute bee theme! And, hmmm...could that be a poison apple??)

  10. Definitely have heard (and used!)the bees knees expression! Your bees are super cute and I can see why they were popular at your shop. Spring has teased us here in northern KY, then winter says "not so fast" and it gets cold again. All of the flowering trees, shrubs and tulips are blooming so it looks like spring at least. Happy weekend to you Janice! Jane
