I’ve been on Pinterest for the past two years and I’ve gotten heaps of ideas from the site (as well as loads of guilt about what I’m not accomplishing). For me, most craft projects I try out need to meet a two requirements before I’ll try them out: cheap and easy. My most recent trial came thanks to a pin linking Sugar and Cloth about animal memo holders.
I made a series of these memo holders in different colors and it went great. All the supplies you need are a plastic animal, a dowel rod, an alligator clip, some spray paint in the color and finish of your choice and some glue. I sprayed the animal, spray a length of the dowel rod the same color. Then I drilled a hole into the top of the animal and stuck the dowel rod right in. (It was a tight fit so I didn’t even use glue.) I then glued the alligator clip to the dowel rod and voila!
I’m using mine to hold my new year’s resolutions for the year but they they would work great for hold recipes, to do lists, photographs and more!
