Red had deals with the orchard and vineyard owners for moving them around as the locations required. Comb honey was always a favorite of mine and they won't sell it here anymore as our honey has to be pasturized now. :( <br /><br />LaurieMonkey-Cats Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14062622379463549932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912431965202566104.post-23801519636114813082009-05-11T16:21:00.000-07:002009-05-11T16:21:00.000-07:00Carolee, that is absolutely beautiful!

Sonia, I'm ...Thanks for the kind comments, all. :)<br /><br />Sonia, I'm not sure but I believe coiled bee skeps date back to the 19th century, or possibly earlier? My own version is a more detailed twist on bee skeps I painted several years ago while working for an Amish furniture manufacturer...Those skeps were much rougher and more primitive (as was all the work I did there, in keeping with appealing to the local tourist trade), but they were the first bee skeps I painted, so there's probably an evolution of sorts there. :) <br /><br />Although I'm actually allergic, I find something so magical about them, and I need to get one for my own garden - not sure if the bees actually use them or not though? <br /><br />~ CaroleeCaroleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13073291932262018795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1912431965202566104.post-34392114391887833622009-05-11T07:43:00.000-07:002009-05-11T07:43:00.000-07:00Carolee...
