Chore Can

When my kiddos are arguing with each other, being little toots, or are totally bored they reach into the chore can and grab a chore.  They like that it's a surprise each time so they don't argue with me!  It's a popsicle stick that's the boss.  Sometimes they enjoy them and sometimes they do not.  Either way, I get some of my chores done around the house!!  It's a win win for me!

I used a can I had chalkboard painted awhile back and tied a fabric scrap for decoration.  I can change out the fabric scrap to keep it seasonal or fun!

Liking the sideways pic aren't you?!  Hehe!

Snazzed Up Cans

 I volunteer at my kids' school library and wanted to snazz up the joint.  I used recycled cans from fruit, fabric scraps, modpodge and felt (for the bottom).  I printed out the labels in word, cut them out and laminated them on coordinating fabric.  I hole punched the ends and tied them to the cans with fabric scraps.  I think they turned out rather cute myself!  Below are the backs of them.
