Here is one plus to not having a vegatable garden -- saving produce stickers and placing them on a small container in your kitchen. I've been sticking them on a ceramic vase at the sink for my sponge wand. I got the idea after I saw a one in a neighbor's house. From the looks of it, she had been at it a while -- her container was completely covered like decoupage. I started saving the stickers at the beginning of summer, so we'll see how long it takes to fill it. (I acutally feel a little cheated when I get home and one tomato lost its sticker, or if I go to peel a pear's and it won't come off the skin....) I also cheated a little with stickers from bakery muffins, but they were fruit-oriented and so cute. I need to buy more of those muffins!

Faux Chalkboard Tags



I have had these IKEA baskets for a long time, and have always been meaning to add tags for all the kiddo's toys and STUFF. Inspired by these baskets with these tags, I went on a little hunting expedition to find all them-there parts. Since chalk cloth is impossible to find (on a lunch hour anyway) I picked up some black, textured card stock. The background pieces are foam sheets, all cut to size. I used plain white chalk on the paper, glued it on, and voila! After a hole punch and some ribbon, they were ready to hang.

Hawaii

Being fans of multi-tasking and some Hawaiian kitsch, we had to check out the Hawaiian chair.
Our thoughts.
1. This video is hilarious.
2. This video is even more hilarious.
3. Hawaii is probably embarrassed.
4. We are a bit seasick now.
