Re-purposed Candle Jars

Don't throw away those old candle jars anymore!  Here's what I did with mine:


First, soak the candle in hot water to loosen the wax and labels.



Clean it out with a paper towel.


I use "Goo Gone" on a cotton ball to get rid of the stubborn parts of the label.


Lastly, clean by hand, or just put it in the dishwasher.  It will come out nice and shiny.


Here are just a few ideas for how your new jar can be used.

Valentine's Day Ideas

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and I have to show off this minion Valentine's box that Jenna made all by herself.  She is so incredibly creative!  The cards will go through his mouth.  I knew she was working on this, but I did not expect it to be so detailed and well done.  Good job Jenna!


Also, here's an idea for Valentine's Day treats to pass out.  Perfect and simple for your school class.

You Are My Sunshine

Can't get this guy off my mind- I love you Clark.





There were so many rainbows in Clark's summer.
You can see Clark's shadow here.  I packed him
around like this all day.

ABC Quiet Book Page

Here is a peek inside of a quiet book I made for Jenna when she was a baby.  "A" for arrows, "B" for book...  




B is for Book, this book opens up with a little story about Jenna inside.


Of course, this door opens, there is a day time theme outside.









M for "money". Was it worth the dollar?  Yes!

N for "net", there used to be a lady bug bead in there, but it escaped.




The car is painted on a magnet, it works with the "magnet pen"
used in other activities in the book as well.

Gummy Bear Experiment



I never realized gummy bears have mustaches.  Humm....  
I kind of want to do this with gummy worms.
