Mess-Free Finger Painting

From Hippiehousewife: Pour some tempora paint into a zipper lock bag. Get all the air out before you securely close the bag. Use painters tape to tape to laminate table. (If you have a dark colored table, put a light piece of paper between bag and table first.) Let your kids at it. Fun to mix colors too!

Notebook Spiral Earrings

As seen on Etsy.com – you can make these! Use wire snips to snip off a little bit more than you’d like the earrings length to be and with needlenose pliers fashion a small turn in the bottom to hold the beads. Start adding beads. When you’ve got them to the desired lenth, use pliers to attach fishhook style earrings.

Recycled T-shirt Shopping Bags

From Moredesignplease:

Use that funky old shirt sitting on the bottom of your drawer and re-work it back into your life!  

It’s super easy to do! All you’ll need is an old cotton t-shirt, some sewing pins and thread, scissors- and you’re halfway there!

Cut off the sleeves and neck line t create your handles.

Pin and sew the bottom portion up.

 Now you can shop in style and help the earth!
