"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."

Salad Spinner Art

"This fun spinner art is the perfect activity to do with your kids! It is a classic "spin" to a common art project! Adding a salad spinner is an exciting way to change up how they paint. This project is awesome for all ages. Even your little toddler will love helping by spinning the salad spinner handle around. The best part is that each art piece will turn out different. Individualized art is popular with kids."
