DVD Tin Notebooks

I found these DVD Tins at effectuality.com.  I am turning them into notebooks with a matching pen, decorated paper clip, and pocket for notes.  I think I will try different items inside in the future, calendars, photo holders, etc... 

  

Hershey's Snowmen

A big thank you to Laurie Furnell for this cute snowman candy wrapper template.  My mom and I sat down this afternoon to make 36 of these.  In the process we re-familiarized ourselves with a sewing machine after what had to be 20 years.  I had so much fun - I need to find more sewing projects!
