Yarn Holder DIY

Yarn Holder DIY


Supplies needed:
Plastic Container
Marker
Drill
Drill Bit
Eyelet Kit (Gromets)
Hammer


Directions: 
1. Place yarn in container and make two marks with a sharpie, this gives you a guide to know where to drill your holes.
2. I had 6mm eyelets/gromets on hand, which seem to be a perfect size, and I used a 3/8 inch drill bit.
(You can use whatever size gromet as long as the yarn fits through. Just remember, you'll have to use a smaller/bigger drill bit depending on the size you get.)
3. Drill the holes based on where you made your marks.
4. Place gromet in holes and follow the directions from the Eyelet Kit.
(It's really easy. All you do is put one piece of the gromet in the front side of the container, then the other piece of the gromet to the inside of the container. Use the tool given to hold the gromet pieces together and in place, and then hammer so the gromets hold together.
5. Place yarn through hole and put the lid on. Viola!

Now you have a inexpensive yarn holder to keep away from both human and furry critters!

VAPORIZING SHOWER CUBES

VAPORIZING SHOWER CUBES


Ingredients:

1/2 cup of baking soda
1/4 cup of corn starch
4 tbs. of BabyRub (baby VapoRub)
1-3 tbs of water
Ultra fine white glitter (optional)
ice cube tray


Instructions:

Combine the baking soda and corn starch.
Add in 4 tbs of the Baby Rub
Mix until fully combined.
One tablespoon at a time, mix in the water. You don’t want it to be runny because it needs to harden. If you accidentally make it too runny, that’s ok! Just add more corn starch.
Pour the mixture into an ice cube tray.
Sprinkle a little bit of the fine glitter on top (optional but a great touch for gift giving!)
Let it dry overnight.
Gently remove the cubes from the tray. They are soft and break easily, so don’t twist and turn the tray too much trying to remove them. Just a little loosening will do the trick and they will come right out. Keep them in a pretty cup (as pictured) or carefully place them in jars and hand them out as gifts!
