"One of my sons made me a lamp just like this one many years ago at summer camp. It is a simple project that gets a lot of use. I still have it. It is my favorite lamp. It gives the room a nice cozy feel that you dont get from modern lamps."

"I have got to try some of these! Maybe a lot of these. I have a stash of canning jars from back when I used to can a lot. Since I don't do that any more, these are perfect for Christmas gifts as well as decorating the house at Christmas. Oh - my favorite Christmas craft material is yarn."

"I have some tiny liners that I don't even remember getting, much less what they were intended for. This is a great way to use them, because I also have some tiny fake flowers stashed away. They would make pretty package toppers, as she used them for or they could be used in a wreath, among other things. Very pretty."

"Simple enough and they would be pretty displayed anywhere, but why buy angels? It would be easy to cut them from cardstock or pasteboard, then decorate them in various ways. Crafts like this make me look forward to decorating for Christmas, but I can't spend a lot of money on it, so I am always looking for cheaper ways to do it!"

"This is a great way to make a utilitarian item very pretty! My hubby I have just stopped using paper napkins, not because we are being green, but to save green-money that is! We found ourselves buying paper napkins quite often. Not wanting to pay for them anymore, we broke out our cloth napkins to use instead. I love vintage things, so I have been collecting them for years. Time to put them to use on an everyday basis, instead of only for our fancy dinners! This craft looks like it would be fun, very easy to adapt in color and style and would bring a very nice look for your table. Embroidery is a great way to personalize your linens too. You could even embroider a monogram on your napkins. How fun! Would you consider this for a craft project?"
