F...Dear Georgianna, Making preserves is very easy. For your first try only make 2 to 3 jars and place in refrigerator. <br /><br />Here is how: Cook 1 and 1/2 cups of cut up fruit with 1 cup of sugar for 1/2 hour. Add 2 to 3 TB of fresh lemon juice and 1 pkg of pectin. Cook for another 10 minutes. Pour into pretty jars, let cool. That's it.<br /><br />A garage, turned into guesthouse with a Scandinavian flair, was featured in the House Beautiful July/August issue. I painted the animal tiles for the fireplace surround and plates for the antique French plate rack.<br /><br />The guesthouse is part of a beautiful estate located in Salt Lake City.<br /><br />Georgianna, don't forget to enter my contest (above). <br /><br />Have a lovely weekend.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429484235583035595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-12078520545106517872010-08-12T07:12:27.897-06:002010-08-12T07:12:27.897-06:00Gina, this is marvelous – you make it seem so easy...Gina, this is marvelous – you make it seem so easy, but I'm sure it would be much more than a morning's work for me. Your labels are beautiful and I'm envious of the lucky recipients of your no-doubt-delicious preserves! (Thank you for your kind comments – how lovely that we share our special garden habit.)<br /><br />P.S. Did I miss a post about your feature in House Beautiful? Just saw it on your sidebar - Congratulations!!!!Georgiannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02298718026210625558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-4066582409679833812010-08-10T11:20:27.261-06:002010-08-10T11:20:27.261-06:00Hi Francesca, I have tried the preserves in my Et...Hi Francesca, I have tried the preserves in my Etsy shop. Did you mean the labels? I have been designing custom labels for people who also like to preserve food. It is becoming (food preservation) a more and more popular thing to do. I think that it is a great trend.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429484235583035595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-11325560234174771262010-08-10T10:21:40.565-06:002010-08-10T10:21:40.565-06:00Oh look at those beautiful labels!

It really is so simple and the rewards are so many. A good place to start is always with preserves. So little chance of failure.Ginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03429484235583035595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3305117665027937006.post-74589471722878635422010-08-10T06:23:31.798-06:002010-08-10T06:23:31.798-06:00Hi Ann, your Vault post is spectacular.
