Re-use your jars!
This is an idea that I got from Tori Spellings website(www.ediTORIal.com), yes I mean Donna Reed from Beverly Hills 90210. Tori has grown up and is a source of great ideas for partyplanning, fun stuff for kids and beautiful details in your home; such as this one.

Many of you asked how to make the doily-wrapped mason jar pictured in my recent post about mason jars, so here we go! I found this craft on the wedding website Sparkle and Hay.

What To Do
Step 1: Spray jar or doily with adhesive spray

Step 2: Wrap and press doily on jar (smooth as possible)

Having a sister is like having a built in best friend!
Last weekend my sister turned 30 something…A first time mother, this birthday was special. I would like to take the opportunity to thank her for always being there for me to laugh at and with, but mostly for just being there when I needed her.
Dear okhti,
You’re the best sister anyone could wish for.
I have always looked up to you, even when you used me as your living doll :-)
I hated just sitting there for you and your friends,
I hated being put make up on and
I really really hated it when you did that with pencils and spit.
I hated when you made me sing famous songs and I had to sing the male(!) background voices, I was only 3 or 4 and was doing my best multiple male choir impersonation, needless to say, it didn’t sound very well...
I hated being your circus-slave :-) when you told me to bring my leg higher and higher.
But I loved just hanging out with you and still do!
