Pinterest Project...

So, I'm a HUGE fan of Pinterest.  I've found so many fun ideas and I have actually put many of them to good use.

Tonight, I actually made something FOR US, from an idea I found...


And my version... I used a "Hot Chocolate" cylinder I've been holding onto, and altered it to hold my large popsicle sticks... I got the sticks at WalMart for $2.47.  I'm glad I got the big package because we have a  HUGE family!  There's a stick for each family member, and some for friends we are praying for... I have a few spares to add in, too.


Paper is Basic Grey, and the key is from my friend, Betsy... she brought me those Tim Holtz beauties when I was laid up with my crazy broken foot.  Letters were cut out using the Cricut, Wall Decor cartridge.  I ended up putting some clear packing tape over the paper since it will be on the table, plus, I did not exactly glue my letters down that well.

I'm loving this idea, and can't wait for the kids to see it on the dining room table in the morning... I think they will have fun Randomly choosing a handful of sticks to pray for!
