FREE Printable: Chalkboard Style Pantry Labels

I am a sucker for labels. I have a label maker, but I get bored with just plain labels. I created these Chalkboard Style Pantry Labels for my own pantry and thought I would share with you.

There are two pre-filled Chalkboard Style Pantry Label sheets available for download. To download, just save to your computer and print. I like to use Avery® White Full-Sheet Labels for Inkjet Printers (keep in mind you won't want to get the labels wet) or you may also use white letter size card stock and either laminate and attach or tape on your canisters.

Friend Ministry: DIY Bird's Nest Necklaces

One of my top 6 priorities for 2013, is to work on my ministry to others. I have scheduled time each week to spend focusing on my relationships with my friends. This week during my friend time, I made these simple Bird's Nest Necklaces. I was given one from a friend and I love mine. I have several friends that are expecting or just had a baby and I thought they would make great gifts.

Materials:

• Needle nose Pliers
• Wire Cutter
• 24 Gauge Wire
• Jump Rings
• Chain
• Lobster Clasps 10 MM
• Glass Pearl Beads 6MM

I purchased all of my supplies at Michael's, but I found that all of the items were just as cheap on Amazon as they were in the store (and many of the items have free shipping). I had the pliers and wire cutter at home, but purchased everything else. In total, I spent $17 dollars to make 4 necklaces or $4.25 each. I still have wire, clasps, jump rings, and beads left over.

Directions:

Step #1

Arrange beads on wire with just a bit of wire left at the end. You can use as many beads as you like in this step. (Sorry for the blurry picture, I was multi-tasking and holding my 6 month old)

Step #2

Wrap wire around beads until you have your desired width.

 



Step #3

Leave about 6 inches of wire at end and cut with wire cutters.

Step #4

Wrap wire between each bead and around all wires 2-3 times. During this process attach a jump ring or make a ring out of the wire. Cut wire and tuck end into back of nest.

Step #5

Place chain through jump ring and attach clasp at one end of chain using a jump ring. Attach another jump ring to the other side of the chain.

 

That's it. I think that this is a simple and inexpensive gift to give to your friends!
