Tutorial - How to Make Times Tables Hanging Pockets

This could be used for absolutely anything!

Times Tables Hanging Pockets Tutorial at Creating my way to Success
"My 2 daughters, and ages 6 and 8 are both learning their times tables. I've been helping them along the way - and learning too about the best ways to teach them. My dad was a maths teacher - and I remember doing lots of work with my times tables at home as a kid! So I have lots of experience to draw upon!
One thing I've found that works really well, and they love doing is playing 'Memory' or 'Pairs' - the card game where you have to match 2 cards and pair them off.
So as we've worked our way through the tables, I've been making them sets of Memory cards.
It then seemed important to make something to keep these sets of game cards in. Something that they could easily find the set they're looking for and so play them by themselves whenever they want!..." Read more

Tip - How to Make a Greeting Card Organizer

I've got a pocket notebook but it's not very well stocked. Thanks for the push!

Greeting Card Organizer Tip at Life Blessons
"I’m not sure where she got it, but for quite some time, my mother has kept a big teal box filled with greeting cards for every occasion. It was always so handy to have that card box there at a moment’s notice to thumb through, without having to make a special trip to the store. I can remember running off to a friend’s birthday or preparing for a bridal shower, and her asking me if I needed a card for the occasion. “Look in the card box!”

For quite some time, I’ve had an assortment of stationery and a handful of greeting cards that I’d bought and never used, stored in an empty shoebox. But it was not the same as my mom’s well-stocked collection..." Read more

Tutorial - How to Make a Kitchen Memo/Menu Planning Board

Great upcycling project! Entertaining read too!

Kitchen Memo/Menu Planning Board Tutorial at Smart-Bottom Enterprises
"As a shape, I think the oval kind of gets a raw deal. Triangles and squares and rectangles - now those shapes have power and strength. And circles - they've got movement on their side. But an oval! So sad. You put it upright and it will roll over on its side and stay there. Helpless. Which might be why, when my husband brought home an oval-shaped medicine cabinet from the sale table at Lowe's, I was all, "meh." ..." Read more
