Superhero Room Ideas
tootsie pops for an ol' man
Just a quick little project I couldn't wait to make for my brother-in-law who has turned 30. You can make this little gift for any age - although you may need a bigger container once you get up there in years - lol!
Materials needed:
- container/pail (always check the $ section in Target! They always have some cute pails! This one is from Ikea)
- floral foam square (Dollar Store)
- paper towel
- suckers
- kebob skewers
- "30 sucks" sign - cardstock, designer paper, cricut letters - whatever your lil' heart desires
- filler (I shredded some vintage sheet music)
1. put a wadded up paper towel in the bottom for a little support
2. place foam square on top of paper towel
3. start poking the suckers in the foam alternating colors and placement for stability
here are all 30 suckers
4. (optional) shred vintage music paper in your shredder
5. stuff paper filler in all the crevices
6. attach message to kebob skewers with a little tape
7. push skewers down to desired height
birthday boy :o)Hope you enjoy!
Come Sit a Spell
No matter where I am, there is always a place to sit and relax and enjoy the garden. Only problem is, I never sit and relax. But I sure enjoy the garden in so many other ways! I enjoy finding new ways to "decorate" a room, as I like to see my yard split up into different areas. Every "room" in my garden has a name and a different function. Most of the rooms evolved as I found chairs, benches, and swings at thrift stores and garage sales. This gives us all a new reason to shop and be creative and see objects in all new ways. Summer is a good time to "explore" our gardens with new eyes. My next post will show some ideas on what to do with pots, birdhouses, etc. See you in a couple of days. Please leave a comment and share this with your friends. For now, sit back, relax, and enjoy.
Love,
