 Have you ever read a sign and said,"Did they actually read that back to themselves?"
Well, we recently went on a trip to the Great Smoky Mtns.and came across a few interesting signs.While we all know what they really meant,I thought you might get a chuckle.

(on a Hardee's Resturant sign) "New! Hawaiian Chicken Sandwich.It's A Boy!

(gas station parking lot)"No Bobtails in Parking Area."
And my favorite....
(sign by a Welcome Center)"Feeding Wildlife Picking Wildflowers Prohibited"

Email me with some unique signs that you have seen!

  I don't know about all this saving the environment by not using those flimsy plastic things that you pray over as you transfer the groceries from the buggy to your car,hoping that you won't be chasing your groceries all over the parking lot while looking through a gaping hole,or not.(whew!)But what I do know is that it doesn't have to be ugly!I noticed a lot of plastic bags are being replaced with reusable ones.Which is good.(Less trash,the fewer times I have to ask my son to take it out:)But can't we keep our style while doing it? justnkace you think so,read on.I give you................            The Everything Bag!
Inside there is vinyl for easy cleaning.At the top, the sides zip up in-case you are carrying more or taller items.Or unzip the sides to have more of the beautiful fabric visible.On the outside,in the front there is a zippered pocket that can be used to hold cash or credit cards etc.A key loop inside,keeps your keys handy.(without this feature,my keys usually hide in the bottom,under everything,at the most inconvenient times:)
                                      
 Though pictured carrying groceries, it would be good as an any day purse/lunch tote/all-day outing and just about Everything Bag.This bag is hand designed, not from a mass produced pattern so... justnkace you need something special,please remember our site.Thank you for your support.

 Some friends and I put on baby shower for a friend of ours.She wanted  it to have a puppy theme.So we made bite size puppy face cakes with the dog's little tongue hanging out.And a diaper cake with wooden dog and dog house cut-outs.Bone shaped finger jell - o and a bone shaped picture frame completed the puppy theme.We also had the standard chips and punch to go along with everything else.    
To make the punch just make some cool - aid.(half as much water than usual)Then right before the party starts,add the refrigerated ginger ale.(you will need less ice this way as well.)
 For the cake bites,mix up one cake mix as directed then bake in a large rectangle pan. When it is completely cooled,cut into one to two inch square pieces.Dip into melted  white candy chocolate.Melt some reg. candy chocolate in a sandwich baggie.(put choc. in baggie,seal.Set baggie in a bowl of hot water until melted.)Do not put it in the microwave.It will melt the bag.
Cut one bottom corner of the baggie and draw on the ears,nose and eyes.Then I purchase a red icing writter from the local cake supply store,for the tongue.
 For the bone shaped finger jell - o, you just mix jell - o  with half the normal amount of water and 2 pkgs. of gelatin,let it set in the refrigerator.Then cut with a bone shaped cookie-cutter.
 The diaper cake was made on the fly.I have never  made one before.But there is info on the net.Then just decorated with coordinating ribbon and wooden cut-outs.
 I found the bone shaped picture frame at the dollar store.We copied one of the mother's latest sonograms and placed it in the frame.
Buy a piece of matching fabric and drape it over the gift table.
Then of course,don't forget the gift you need from www.justnkace.com
Add  a few friends and anything else you'd like and there you go.
 

Here's a way to make your kid's day with a simple and cheap project.
 The items used are as follows:

Box (any size)
Straight edge Razor knife
Staple puller -- if needed
2 cans of white spray paint  (base coat)
1 or 2 cans of spray paint (color of your choice)
Wrapping paper or contact paper to cover the top
1 Princess place-mat /stickers or your choice of embellishments.
Double-fold bias tape
Hot glue gun & glue sticks.

Cut the box to the desired height,(leave back edge uncut.pulled out the large staples that might come in contact with the child.Then I spray painted the box outside with the inexpensive white paint.The cardboard absorbs the paint very quickly and unevenly.So I would not pay much for the base coat paint.Then when that dries,paint the top coat in the color of your choice.Let that dry.

Cover the lid with whatever you have on hand,wrapping paper or contact paper.Later on if it gets ripped,just recover with something else.

The cut edge at the rim,is covered with double-fold bias tape.I hot glued it on.
Then put your embellish it as desired.My daughter is into Princess's so I glued on a princess place-mat that I bought at the Dollar store.You could also find letter stickers and put their name onit.They love to see their name on something.It's a fun way to spend time with your kids and get them to put their toys away...at least for a little while.
