Fun with little things laying around in the junk drawer. Make and old fashioned key design. Lay you Items out on cardboard and spray paint them so they are all the same color. These are done in black, but if you doing a girls room pink is nice. Then arrange the  pieces on a canvas glue them in place. I love the clear silicone found in any Walmart in the paint/caulking area. Frame it or not? Paint the frame to match for a bed room. Let your mind wonder it is fun. Look closer at the key and you will find that we all have this junk laying around. if you don't ? start picking it up when you walk the dog, in the parking lot on the way to the store. Hardware is everywhere.

drink up

This is fun. You can drink the soda yourself or you can do what I do and collect the caps when I walk the dog. The park is a great place to find bottle caps especially after a holiday.
This is made with
12 red coke caps
8 seven up caps
and fish line (which I also pick up at the park near the sea wall)
Tools:
Ice pick or drill, hammer, pliers.
what you don't see is there is a cap in the center that the line is threaded in to. that is what holds it together.
Don't worry about rusty caps they look cool. Stick these around the flower pots and let them weather, they will look even better.

Fun with the kids

 Oh what fun! you all know I love these flat marbles and having a ton of shade in my yard these look great coming up out of the ferns.

 So easy to make, the mason jars or canning jars can be found in thrift stores, glass pickle or mayonnaise jars work as well. anything with a tight fitting screw on lid. Clear silicon from wal-mart, find it in the paint caulking areal, a tube is under 5 bucks. The glass flat marbles I get at dollar tree, a bag of them cost a buck.

 Screw the lid to the wood stick, use a washer under the screw.

Let the glue dry 24 hours and pop it into place the next day.
