Clothes pin magnets. As a little gift to the girls that attended the dress making brunch (previous post), I made them each a set of clothes pin magnets.
I found the idea on the Pin and Paper blog. I thought it was an appropriate gift for for the brunch for these reasons: 1. Clothes pins can be a reminder of the dresses we made, but more importantly the little girls they will be going to 2. 3. Step 1: Cut your paper. I changed though and found it easier to cut the paper to the correct size before gluing it to the clothes pin. Step 2: Glue paper to pin using Mod Podge. After dry, put another coat of Mod Podge on top of the paper Step 3: In a well ventilated area attach magnets to the clothes pins using E6000 or another strong adhesive.

He aquí un esquema de como debe quedar todo lo anterior explicado: The Lazy Lady’s Guide to DIY: Hanging Herb Garden. At some point near the middle of March, I always decide that I’m “done” with winter.
The sweaters and jackets get pushed to the back of the closet, the flip flops come out, and I inevitably freeze my butt off for several weeks until the weather catches up with my warm-weather state of mind. Likewise, my cravings for fresh herbs and veggies are always a little ahead of the season. Growing your own herbs is a great way to save money and avoid buying too much at a time and letting most of it go to waste. If it’s still too cold to plant outside where you are (or if you’re short on space!) This hanging herb garden is the perfect project to get you in gear for spring. What you’ll need: Tin containers with snap-on plastic lids (tea, cocoa, and coffee cans are a good bet), coat hangers, pliers, scissors, herbs (I bought basil, rosemary, dill, and cilantro for about $2.50 each), masking tape, coffee filters, a nail, a hammer, X-acto knife, scrap fabric or paper, and glue or spray adhesive.
