::PLUCKED FROM PINTEREST::

This week the team at CELEBRATE did some overtime cruising one of our favorite websites, Pinterest!  Here is the cream of the crop:

1.) Find a dark colored t-shirt and a cool icon (for example, the solid silhouette of a moose).  Affix a cut-out of the icon onto the shirt and mist/spray with bleach.  This will create a fabulous negative space print of the cut-out!  FYI, black shirts bleach orange so choose your color wisely.


2.) Put marshmallows in your brown sugar to keep it soft!


3.)  Don't throw away the plastic sprinkle top to the Parmesan cheese or the round cardboard top to a box of salt!  Both fit perfectly on mason jars!  The possibilities are endless!  We like using them for powdered sugar, glitter, or even rock salt!

4.)  Use your waffle iron for cooking more than just waffles!  You can make wonderful, crispy hash browns, small cookies, or even cinnamon buns!  

5.)  Use a glue tip/cap on a acrylic, craft,  paint bottle to make painting lines a breeze!



6.) Maximize your closet space (and give yourself an excuse to go shopping) by using soda tabs to double hang items.  Slip the first hole of the table over the wire neck of the first hanger and than you can hang a second hanger from the second hole.



6.)  Instead of dribbling your apples with lemon juice to prevent browning, try spraying them with orange juice in a spray bottle!  This will prevent the browning and have a less harsh bite than the lemon juice!


7.) Use chalk to pre-treat oil stains on clothing before washing.   The chalk helps to dry the oil.

Pinterest Plucks

Here is an amazing idea that brought a tear to our eyes and a lump to our throats from our friends at Pinterest!

Fill a room with memories, literally!  This idea could be used for just about any occasion (engagement, birthday party, divorce, bat mitzvah, etc).

Things You Will Need:

Latex Balloons
Helium Tank
Photos or mementos from the honored guests life.

There are two ways to go about this, at least.

WAY 1 (Great for intimate occasions like an engagement or to announce your spouse you are expecting):

The host works alone and does all the work in terms of collecting the items, photos, etc.

WAY 2 (Great for more public events such as graduations, birthdays, or anniversaries):

The host asks/emails the guests and asks each of them to supply a memento or photo that will mean something to the person.  The host should supply a deadline for submissions.  Than the host puts the room together by inflating the balloons and attaching the items.  Then the guest can arrive and bob among the balloons squealing with surprise.

Here is another wildly successful idea we found on Pinterest!

Make any food stored in a plastic bag (IE chocolate chips, jelly beans, brown sugar) with great idea. All you need is the top section of a soda or sports drink bottle.  In this case, the picture really is worth 1000 words!

Here is a wonderful idea we found on Pinterest!

Slide rubber bands (Kathleen prefers the bands that cluster asparagus because of their width and color) on to your coat hanger (wire, plastic, wood, or otherwise) to prevent your silky garments from slipping off to the floor!
