You can make skirts and little girl dresses with a pillowcase or two. Just open the tops and fold over and sew, but leave an opening to make a place to pull elastic through for the skirts. If one pillowcase isn't enough, open the side seam and use two for one skirt. On the little girls dresses, do the same for the elastic and add ribbons for shoulder ties!

Salsa, they do have a gallon mason jar, but it is not the screw top kind, it has a flip lid with a O ring seal. Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | In Praise of the Mason Jar And All the Ways We Use Them ... |

Suzannehamlin- would it be possible to call several local high schools and see if they have a cooking class and will take a lot of the boxes per school. I have donated books that way and they were very glad to get them! The school could keep some of then and then give the rest to the students to take home and keep!

Has anyone made kitchen cabinets using this idea? With a plank board on top for the counter tops? I would love to see a photo!

I clean and reuse small marinated artichoke jars in my junk drawer in the kitchen. I have about 12 turned upside down so I can see what is in each. Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | Don't Throw Out That Jar! New Uses for Old Jars |

I agree with rexrayfan!! Eggplant and raspberry!! How about paint three walls with one color and do the last wall in the other color! You could do it throughout and have each room have a accent wall color with all the other walls the same! Apartment Therapy New York | What Color Do I Paint The Walls? Good Questions |

702. About. I use them. A lot. (Still have the first one my mother-in-law gave me when I was first married.) This is going to sound ridiculous, but my cookbook count was not as bad a I thought it would be!! Really!!! At first, I forgot I was suppose to count them, and I posted something else, then I started counting them and then I forgot to finish counting them and posted some more things and then I forgot to finish counting the cookbooks because I was still getting finished with my "pantry" (two 6 foot bookshelves) and kitchen cabinets!! Does this ever happen to anyone else??? When I realized what was happening, I decided to start from top to bottom, left to right in my kitchen!! Maybe I should put a strobe light where I left off working each time!!!lol Cookbooks counted, "pantry" done and cabinets getting in great shape!! (Don't forget under the top cabinet cleaning like I did. Have to finish those!) You have no idea how much this has helped me!! I am so happy to know others are doing this at the same time!!
