When I had enough points to completely cover the cost I ordered these from Amazon. But where to put them? I wanted to keep them near the coffee maker, but those drawers are all full. I searched my sewing room for somerhing to put them in. We all know how crafters tend to keep empty boxes, jars and containers in case they would become useful, LOL. I found an empty container from my glucose tablets. I had no trouble removing the label, but the tamper proof seal was stuck on good. After washing the container thoroughly I used a bit of washi tape in different colors to cover the threads. Then I used a nicer washi at the base of the threads. My P-touch label maker and a bit more gray tape completed the project. I'm happy with the results and I know J will be happy to see stirrers when he makes his next cup of coffee!
Toodles...
Looks good.

ReplyDeleteThank you so much for stopping by and for following along! This retirement phase of our lives has me harkening back to our "very frugal" starting out phase. I guess life really does come full circle! I will continue to post new ideas and discoveries, so stay tuned!
