Here we go again.. this is a post i would like to post, so i can say i have posted it. Are you with me so far? These are ideas and uses for...you guessed it egg cartons and ice cube trays. The little guy in the high chair is my nephew Max, and i hear he is really enjoying his new baby food!
Egg Cartons: (the art teachers best friend by the way, we use them all the time for paint, paper mache, sequins and beads, etc.)
-Paint, like the picture, makes it a little prettier. Place on the washer/ dryer for lost buttons, bobby pins, coins, etc.
-Use it to house small tea light candles, line the center of a table with cartons.
-in the art/craft room, for beads, buttons, things to keep separate,
-Use as a jewelry box to keep you necklaces, bracelets and earrings separate.
Ice Cube Trays:
-freeze home made baby food. Enjoy Max!
-Freeze pesto, sauces, and thaw a few cubes over noodles or veggies for next day lunch.
-Spice up your ice cubes: add raspberries, strawberries, or lemon peel.
-If making a summer drink, freeze juice(lemonade, oj, pineapple j) in trays and add to drink when served. This way your drink isn't watered down.
Hey, I need more stuff and ideas! I'm out of both and need some more. Do you have any?? I'm wanting to talk to you about your first couple days of school too, Miss M. Let's talk!
