Pineapple Upside Down Cupcakes

Next time you want to make a pineapple upside down cake consider making pineapple upside down cupcakes instead. Just do the same steps described for your pineapple upside down cake to make it on a smaller scale. Baking times may vary so be careful to check occasionally during baking to make sure your small creations don’t get burnt.

Car Trashcan Idea

This is such a great idea for a trashcan for your car. We used a large closeable cereal container ( we found a two gallon size) which has a closeable lid that snaps tight and has a wide base to help prevent a tip over. The lid pops off easily to empty and has a nice pop top to make throwing trash away a breeze.

Egg Separator

Creative way to separate the egg whites and egg yolks.

Use For Old Buttons

What a great idea for all of your old loose buttons just sitting around waiting to find a good home. Can be done on an old lampshade that can be painted or on a new white one like seen here to provide a glow to the buttons. Would make a great shade for a child’s room or your craft room. Where might you use this idea? Do you have enough buttons for a project like this?

Keepsake Stone

With a grandchild on the way I find myself thinking back to my kids growing up and wish we had preserved so much more of their creations and developments then we did. The notebooks full of their art, awards, programs, school work, report cards and such are wonderful to have. But I miss their tiny little feet and hands and wish I could go back and hold them once again. I found this recipe to make a stone for impressions of a loved ones hands and feet or impressions of keepsake like keys or jewelry etc. It made me wish we had done something similar to preserve the size of our precious little ones. Tell us how this project goes if you do one…. would love to see pictures.
