Santa is on his way!

Birdcage

I have had this antique birdcage for at least 25 years. I am pleased to share that it finally had a bird on its perch! clean and worry free!

Sports

I am not much of a sports fan but Qgirl's Class is putting together a sports themed raffle basket. So here's what I came up with. I hope they go to a good home!

Halloween Felt Fun.

Getting it done!

If you live near me sorry for the spoiler, but these are the little treats I have been working on for Christmas gifts. With any luck you just might get one! FYI these are Knitted Dishcloths. If you haven't used one it may seem a strange idea but once you have used one you'll want nothing else for your washing up, except perhaps a dishwasher!

Girls and Cotton balls

Here's a trick I have been doing for a few years. We use cotton balls quite frequently for cleaning earrings and skin cleansing. This idea helps a girl access the cotton balls more easily and have them ready on your counter top or dresser.
 I have always wondered why the cotton ball manufacturers don't sell their cotton balls in tissue boxes?

Girls and hair things

If you have a daughter you probably know this problem.  The giant bin of dollar store hair ties and headbands!

What to do with the Hair ties and Headbands? Today I finally got around to organising and it was one of those projects where you think why didn't I do this sooner? I cleaned out a gigantic cardboard can that once held lemonade mix. and covered it with wrapping paper.

 I sorted the hair elastics and barrettes and placed them inside my newly fashionable tin!

 

I placed the lid back on top and wrapped the headbands around the can. Done! tidy, easily accessible and virtually kitty proof.
