"A plastic, reusable container is a better choice. This project does not seal out air that can cause a sandwich to dry out depending on where itn is stored. A wash reuse container like Tupperware and others have is a mu87ch better choice in terms of environmental waste as well as the time it takes to make this project."

"I have made several headboards as well as redoing one from a thrift store. My biggest challenge was making a bookcase headboard. Couldn't afford the $900 prices from a furniture store so I laid out the measurements on graph paper and calculated sizes. Used 1 sheet of birch plywood to build it using glue and dowels to assemble with an occasional brad nail. I finished the edges of the 3/4" ply with the iron-on finishing tape. Learned a few things I would do differently if I make another on. Have used it for over 30 years and it still works. I have done lots of padded headboards for family and friends as well as other home decor projects since I love to sew and work with fabric."

C2c Xo Wall Hanging

"How to crochet a corner to corner XO wall hanging perfect for Valentine’s Day decorating, a gallery wall, nursery decor, anniversary or wedding gift and even just the casual every day decor. You'll need some worsted weight yarn - I used Red Heart Super Saver for mine in the colors Buff and Soft White. You'll also need an H8/5mm crochet hook, and at least a 12" dowel. Caron One Pound and Bernat Super Value are great yarn alternatives. This wall hanging took me about 7-8 hours to complete. There is also a video tutorial for this pattern."
