I love crafts that are thrifty and eco-friendly. The idea is not new, but this is a great tutorial on sewing your own Swiffer cover. Feel free to use any cotton or terry that was destined for the rag bag and you, too, can have a spiffy new cover for your floor mop. No more refills for you! Added to Recycled Crafts and Sewing

Aren’t these lovely and fresh-looking for a pretty spring wedding? Well you can make them yourself! First, take 6 boxes of Jello… Yes, Jello. Instead of fruit, Rachael Ray Magazine came up with inserting flowers into partially-gelled gelatin to make Jello Flower Centerpieces. How different. Added to Wedding Crafts and Floral Crafts
