Flowers with homemade vase

Sent from reader, Stacy:

This past weekend, it was pretty rainy in Spokane, so we put our creative hats on for activities and it was all about crafts! The great thing about all of the items we made, I had them all on hand – costing ZERO dollars and might I say, they are all pretty hip! ๐Ÿ˜‰

The flower case is a “Pringles” can with hot glued rocks on it (adorable). The base of the homemade coasters are extra tiles from a yard sale that I’d picked up, then I used scrap-booking paper to make the “coasters”.  My adorable “up-cycled” notepads are from… well, the recycle bin and index cards I had gotten free from a deal at Target. Needless to say, we were busy this past weekend and now have free memories to boot!
