Christmas Cactus Seedlings (near Britannia Plaza)
Withdrawn
I have a Christmas cactus that is growing out of bounds. Anyone who wishes to pick some of the twigs/leaves to plant them is welcome to pick some. They are easy to grow, just put them in some water and roots will sprout. the second pictures shows some with roots. It is sitting on my porch. Once the cactus is trimmed enough, I will remove the ad. It normally blooms around Christmas with purple/red flowers, provided it gets enough light.

Yarn and other handwork items (near Britannia Plaza)
Gifted
I have a variety of yarn made and other objects to give away: the larger beige item is the front of a crocheted summer top that was never finished. Made of beige cotton. Could be unraveled to recuperate the yarn. The yellow-orangy knitted item is fine high quality cotton. The orange ball of yarn is very fine high quality cotton yarn, fine than the slightly darker one. The small knitted white piece is wool, so is the small dark blue one. The small brown crocheted piece is cotton. The round wooden item is for handweaving coasters from raffia and the like. 9“ diameter the wooden stick can be used for to slide inside some cloth for hanging. The small square blue piece is to make lines on cloth. No idea what it's called. It used to be my mother. there is also a salmon pink zipper and 2 Singer bobbins. not sure if they show on pic. Can be given away as a package deal or piece by piece. I just care that nothing goes to waste.

Request:
stand for garden tools (near Britannia Plaza)
I am looking for an item that could be used outdoors as a stand for garden tools like rakes, shovels, hoes, bamboo sticks etc. Handles down, tool part pointing up. The top of the stand should not be wider than the bottom at least 2' high, or the items will spread and look messy. A while ago I received a square clay flue from someone. Something like that would work too.
