Post it Holder Project!

Today I thought I'd share the directions for a fun little activity we added to Midsummer Tangle the other day.

Tangled Post it Holder

Post it holders:
·         Cardstock 3½x 8
·         1-2 tiles (our choice)
·         1 pack of post its
·         Pencil (Zentangle®are perfect size) or small gel pen
·         Coordinating scrap paper
o   2 strips each about 1½ in long x ½” wide
Score and fold in 3 ¾” from each side of your card stock
Glue the edges of your scrap paper (can use cardstock) together to make 2 loops
(fit to the size of your pencil or gel pen)
Glue to front and back of your post it holder (outside)
Attach a completed tile on the front and back (which will secure your holders)

Stick post its or other tiles inside. 


I may have made some other stuff this weekend too. 
Midsummer Tangle weekend!


Now getting ready for another great day with amazing ladies!

Post it holders turn.... Tile holders!!

It's the end of the year and that used to mean a million teacher gifts, but now my oldest is graduating and my son is starting high school next year. Yikes. How did I get so old? Double yikes!

But anyway, teacher gifts are kind of not expected any longer and I can't send in a gift for each of their 6 or more teachers, but this year my son had 2 adults in the school that worked with him and were really beneficial to his growth and he wanted to give a gift. Ok, we can do that.
So I had him get each a Tim Horton's gift card and made up some of these cool post it holders that I used to make all the time... see how cute they are? 



and as I was making them, it occured to me that... 
THEY CAN HOLD TILES!!!! OMG! Lightbulb moment!
See? Where the tile is is where normally I would stick a pack of post its.


So here we are.... I just used papers I had on hand, going forward I see myself making these in tangled papers or at least black and white. 

So now I'm all excited about making something I've made a hundred times. I love when that happens!

We also made these yesterday in honor of Father's day.
Mmmmmmmmm so delicious. My daughter made the ricotta we used in AP bio. LOL


They might not be SUPER pretty but oh boy were they delicious!
