August 3, 2009


This is the thirty-sixth day of my research assistant role of the Youth Garden Project. Today's location was work at home for me.

After check-up on the Nursing Home garden, I work at home make Popsicle Stick Basket .

Popsicle stick crafts are a wonderful standby for creative projects in a hurry. They can bring up reminiscences of youth, and have been interpreted in so many different ways that project ideas seem endless. You need little or no crafting experience to create simple projects and most require minimal craft supplies for success.

Popsicle stick crafts have probably been around since the invention of the Popsicle in 1905. Frank Epperson was a child living in San Francisco, when he accidentally invented the frozen drink. After leaving his drink outside in freezing weather with a stir stick in it, he discovered he could eat his drink. He began selling Epsicles 18 years later and his children eventually changed the name to Popsicles. He sold his invention in 1925 and today it is owned by Good Humor.
