My
hubby and I are just like every other couple: struggling to find the
work, parent, spouse balance and taking things one day at a time. On
my blog you will find me writing about fights I have with my hubby, mama guilt, what I wear on Wednesdays, and stuff they don't tell you about parenthood before you get pregnant. I also throw a good ole' tutorial around every now and then.
And speaking of tutorials, here is a quick little project that I wanted to share with you all today.

And speaking of tutorials, here is a quick little project that I wanted to share with you all today.
Here is my tutorial on how to make a cute little trim dispenser from an empty formula canister...hope you enjoy!
Supplies: clean formula canister {you could also use one of those planter nut mix canisters if you don't have any formula drinkers at your casa}, scrapbook paper, sponge brush and Mod Podge
I measured my canisters and their lids and cut out rectangles to go around the outsides and circles to cover the lids. I also designed a cute little label so I knew what was inside. Then I cut a little slit in the lid for the lace to come out of...I was going to put 2 kinds in the one on the left, that's why there are 2 holes. You only need 1 hole.
Apply a thick coat of Mod Podge on the entire canister and on the lid and put a thin layer on the paper back. Lay the paper down and smooth out any air pockets with your hands.
Then apply 1 more coat over the paper to make sure it sticks on there really well. It also gives it a nice little shine. When it's dry take an craft knife of scissors to cut a slit in the paper for your lace to come out of.
The canister measured more than 12 inches around and the Silhouette only cuts to 12 inches so I just stuck a scrap piece of paper underneath to cover the exposed part. I actually think it looks super cute like that.
And there you have it! A fun and easy project that will make your craft closet a little brighter and more organized!
