"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."

Easy Apple Wreath

"How to crochet an easy and simple apple themed wreath perfect as Fall, classroom and Farmhouse decor. It even works for a kids room or baby shower that is farm themed! You'll need worsted weight yarn for this wreath - I used Red Heart Super Saver in Cherry Red, Coffee and Tea Leaf, but Caron One Pound and Bernat Super Value are good alternatives. You'll also need a 12" styrofoam wreath base, and either hot glue or a sewing pin. I worked this wreath up in about two and a half hours."
