GIVEAWAY

While my husband was gone on storm trouble, I found great opportunities to clean, organize, and declutter my house. I came across some great items to sell, donate, and throw away. A couple of those items I am giving away today. Several years ago, I use to sell Avon. I still have lots of Avon favorites that I use. Today I am giving away 2 Avon Sterling Silver Dophin with Rhinestone Accent Necklaces.

Its simple to enter, just leave me a comment (include your email address) and tell me your favorite piece of jewelry. For an additional entry please follow my blog and leave an additional entry letting me know.

The giveaway will close Sunday, March 1 at 9pm. The winners will be chosen random and be announced Monday, March 2.

The picture is not great but I did not want to remove the necklace or charm from the package for shipping purposes.

Multi - Use Items - Baby Wipes Container

Baby wipe containers are perfect storage containers. At first, I did not keep them but I did hate to throw them away. Now I save them and I found lots of great uses for these.

1) Storage containers for small toys
2) Crayon holder
3) Great for making your own First-Aid kit
4) Great for traveling to carry items for baby - powder, shampoo, lotion etc.
5) Store receipts
6) Ribbow Holder - You can pull the end of the ribbon through the top
7) Storage Containers for drawers just remove the lids
8) Plastic grocery bag holder - Just pull one through the top.

Do you have any other great uses for wipe containers?
