{ Memory Jar }

{ Memory Jar }

My husband and I were talking a while back about writing down all the fondest moments we have experienced since we have been together. 

But being the procrastinators we are we never got around to it. I saw this amazing project that could help make it easy to write down our memories together!  So I preset to you 'The Memory Jar!' 

Here are the supplies you will need!

{ Supplies }

Jar

Mod Podge

Sponge or Brush

Scrapbooking Paper (of your choice)

Glue Tape

Blank Gift Tags

Binder Rings

Pencil

Now creating the label, you may design however you like! I took 2 shades of blue and added 2012 label printed from my PC! I used the Tape Glue to attach the the paper together. I prefer the tape glue because it leaves no mess and no bubbles!

Mod Podge the back of your label and put it on your jar! Once you have finished that, take the binder ring and attach your Blank Gift Tags together! You can use scrap pieces of paper as well! That's it!

 

 

Now the rest is up to you! You can add funny sayings, accomplishments, etc. When adding memories to your jar, make sure to place the date up at the top of Gift Tags so you won't forget the dates!

Don't have time to make one yourself? Let us do it for you! All items made here on my Blog will be for purchase on my site coming soon in my Home Collection!

The challenge!

{ "Pin it!" }

 

 These two little words have changed the way we view the web! 

One site, that for me gets my creative thinking forced into fourth gear. After putting my kids to sleep one night, I decided to take a break and explore this site called 'Pinterest!' everyone has been talking about it all week and I felt compelled to check it out! Once I started seeing all these 'pins' I felt my brain getting excited! How can one site hold so much information and ideas for your life? I sat there and pinned, pinned & pinned! Half the time I didn't even look at the actually site, just saved them for me to browse at later! But after awhile I started thinking, what good is a pin if you don't try them? One afternoon, playing with my daughter it hit me! Why don't I try to do one thing from my pins a week! Brilliant right? But then I thought it would take me forever and decided to try to pick 4 things every 2 weeks, maybe from each category! Then I decided that I wanted to share my journey with the everyone! So here we are, starting my adventures with everyone following along to experience my journey!
