Did you all see my cute new social network buttons over on the right sidebar? What an easy way to find me other places on the web!
Today, I wanted to share the little project that I created last week. We had moved my son's art easel to the computer room, and I finally bought him some dry erase markers to use with his easel, and he had some washable markers for when he's using paper on the easel. They were kind of just floating around on the tray, and they kept getting dropped off the tray and whatnot, so I wanted to put them in something.
I didn't have anything around the house that seemed like it would do, and I sure didn't want to buy anything. That night I made spaghetti for dinner and when I rinsed out the can to put it in the recycling bin, I realized that I could give it a makeover, and make quite a nice marker holder. A little spray paint, scrap paper, ric-rak, and glue later, and I turned a piece of trash into a charming container for storing markers and crayons.
Here is what I ended up with:
Pretty cute little craft for not costing me anything, huh? Everything I used was just leftover from another project, and this little container is absolutely suiting the purpose I had for it. LOVE it!
