Double Frame

1. Two old frames of different sizes.
2. Spray painted them both white.  Let it dry over night.
3. Paint with acrylic craft paint. (I didn't want to have to buy anything doe this project so I used two colors and mixed them together to get the color I wanted.) 4. Before the paint dries wipe gently with a soft rag to get the glazed look.
5. Dry over night.
6. Put largest frame together with a mat.  You could use either fabric or craft paper as a mat.  I used paper.
7. Put together the frames with your picture in it and hot glue to to the glass of the larger frame.

Old T-shirts

I love shopping but with a family of five, three of them growing like weeds, it is so expensive.  So when my little boy started to run out of clothes that fit I turned to Craigslist.  I found an awesome deal on a bundle of baby boy clothes.  The best part was when I went to pick up the clothes I made a new friend!

Most of the items where in really good shape but there were a couple of things with stains.  I loved these to "layered" Ts but both had stains on the sleeves. Easy enough fix, I just grabbed my sewing scissors and cut the sleeves right off next to the hem. No re-heming needed! During cold weather I simply layered them with an actual long sleeve onesie or a jacket.

PB Cookie Jars!

I made some cookies for a funeral in my ward (congregation) that I wasn't going to and ran into the problem of how to send them with someone.  I didn't want to send them in a bag and have them get squished.  But I wasn't willing to give up any of my tupperware either.  Then I remembered my habit of saving peanut butter jars.

They actually looked just fine plain but it is more fun to decorate them :)

I might have gone overboard a little on these but still a fun idea.
Scrapbook paper hot glued on the top, ribbon around the lid, and thick scrapbook stickers on the jar.

I always use Goo Gone to clean any sticker or label residue and nail polish remover to erase print on any jars, bottles, or containers that I reuse.

I usually do this when I first clean them but it was a good thing I double checked these ;)
