Canned Label Magnets


There is so much you can do with paper products. If anything, build a compost to throw your envelopes from your mail, paper napkins. The labels from the cans are a type of paper that really do not break down well. I usually make paper reeds. Very easy to do and you can use the reeds for just about anything. I made magnets with the the labels from the cans. Rolled into reeds and then cut down to size, I stacked them. Great for my fridge. I am just trying to decide if I should glue some small beads on the paper to give them some pizazz......

I didn't get a lot done to day but the important. Went to visit a friend who was released from the hospital and that is priority, the crafts can always wait......

Whoever created this device was a genius. A seamless can opener. I love everything about this piece of hardware, as you will see in the future. Here are my four cans and labels that I will be creating from. My stew is on track and slow cooking. I cook late at night, because my daughter doesn't get home till the wee hours of the morning and she likes to eat when she gets home. My stew is in progress and on time. I hope she enjoys and of course she will put it in the fridge for me to prepare my lunch tomorrow.

I am so excited to share my new crafts with you tomorrow. This is my last post of the evening.

Sweet Dreams!!!
