Janet's Notes:

These are some ideas I gathered for everyone to check out.

Great party ideas and some fun crafty things too.

I will post a photo of some as I do them or if you do it please attach a photo.

Enjoy!!!

Note: These are not my photos or my personal ideas, just found them and wanted to share with everyone.

 

Directions

1
Mix 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of food coloring mixed, bake 10 mins in oven on 350* to make edible glitter

1/2 cup salt, 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 cup (give or take) water. Knead until dough forms. Make impression. Bake at 200 for 3 hours. Do every summer and make a stepping stone path :) works great for pets too!!!
2
Put tiny caster wheels on the top of a wooden bar stool (non expensive ones) Turn upside down and you can cover with hanging bathroom/kitchen cloth pouches, brooms and mops in the middle or tubes of wrapping paper.
3
Helium Balloons wrapped in cellophane. this would be adorable for a lolly pop party!!!
4
For your pet's station: MAKE IT OUT OF A THREE DRAWER DRESSER! You keep the food in the top with a scooper. place the bowls on top of a piece of cut wood to make holes and place inside so the bowls fit snug and you can still close the drawer! toys, treats and leashes in middle drawer.
5
Tie cinnamon sticks around your candles upward using hemp or any string. The heated cinnamon makes your house smell amazing!

Rainy day cure for your stinky wet dogs, when your beloved furry family comes in from the rain, wipe them down with a dryer sheet
6
Saving this idea for the Cold Days ahead! Hate scraping off ice! Ice Proofing the Car Windows with 2/3 Vinegar 1/3 water! Just spray on windows and ice will melt away!

Crayon hot rocks: If you have not done this yet, you need to. Simply warm up the rocks in the oven (I did 220 for 10 minutes), then put them on a stack of newspapers (or something else you don't care if it gets crayon in it) and let the little ones go to town. Just remind them it is hot.
7
Freeze Gummy Worms in ice cube trays and add to blue Kool-Aid

Write secret messages in a white crayon on cut paper or paper plate, they can reveal it with watercolor paint :) Other ideas: for a party - provide everyone with a piece and water colors and one has a prize. They each need to paint it to see who wins. Or could have lots of little prizes. Great for any event or kids party. Could also be used as a party game to reveal a task to be completed.
