Tissue Pack Covers

I saw this awesome and cute idea to make tissue pack covers on Thrifty Crafty Girl (I really like her blog because she makes easy and practical types of crafts that I like to make). When I saw them I just had to make them that very week. I LOVE those little packs of tissue and I'm always buying them at Dollar Tree because you can get a 10 pack. This craft is super easy and she has a great tutorial. These are the ones I made: one for me, one for my husband to match his backpack (he was pretty excited about it (not)) and one for my son's diaper bag. They are perfect for getting a tissue out when you need to keep quiet (like in church or a meeting) and not have everyone hear noise from the plastic wrapper.

Pin Cushion Jar and Matching Wrist Cushion



I saw this idea on A Girl and a Glue Gun and just had to make it. It was harder than it looked but with the help of my engineer husband I figured it out. The trick is to cut the cardboard small enough so that the glass jar fits when you screw it all together. The one I cut too big I glued some ribbon around the edge and glued a piece of elastic so that I can wear it on my wrist.
