The cutest lamp ever!! By Haylie

So this lamp went from ugly to adorable in only a few hours! Here's how it we did: We bought some cute spray paint at Lowes and some fabric and lace at Hobby Lobby. We also had to get some hot glue sticks and our hot glue gun. First we spray painted it and let it dry. While it was drying we measured the lamp shade and the fabric and cut the fabric to size. We hot glued the top fabric a little bit folded instead of sewing it for the edges. The we did the bottom. We hot glued the lace to the bottom and glued it to the lamp shade. Its really that simple!

Magnet Boards! By Katrina and Haylie

So this magnet board is super easy to make and looks really cute when you hang it on your wall! Here's how you make it. 


Supplies: Cookie board sheet, toilet paper roll, hot glue gun, scrapbook paper, drill, and magnets..
 
Step 1: Choose really cute scrapbook paper that will match your room and find an empty toilet paper roll. 

Step 2: Cut the paper to the cookie board size. Hot glue the paper to your cookie board and on your magnets. 

Step 3: Hot glue the paper to the toilet paper roll and add a bottom. Then hot glue it to the cookie board.  

Step 4: Drill a hole in the top and bottom of the sheet. Not on the paper!!! (Don't worry if you can't drill the hole straight through super easy, it takes a little while).


    

Step 5: Nail to your wall and enjoy your cute new magnet board.
