Sorry there is no Etsy post today. I was busy creating my next life altering invention. I should probably patent it before I share it with you but you're my friends and who needs a multimillion dollar sales deal. Not me! I am perfectly happy with the $185 in my checking account and all the coupons spilling out of my purse.
So I bought these .50 cent school boxes that I was going to make into a back to school gift for some friends. I planned on painting and personalizing them like I did with these boxes.
But when I went to pull off that dag-gawn label on the top center, I was left with a sticky mess! I tried hot water and dish soap. I tried Borax. I tried vegetable oil. I tried another handmade soap that is great for getting off craft paints and dyes. NOTHING WORKED!!
Then that teeny tiny lightbulb in my head, that I was sure had burnt out sometime after the birth of my first child, suddenly lit up.
What if...
What if I mixed the Borax and the Vegetable Oil? First I poured enough oil over the sticky spots to cover them. Then I topped it with Borax and rubbed it in really well using quite a bit of pressure. I rinsed in warm water and dried with a towel.
HOMEMADE GOO BE GONE!!
Don't be jealous of my genius ability. I am sure this will be the last good idea I have this century. It's also my first.
very clever, I'm quite sure this is just the first of many flashes of genius! thanks so much for sharing on Craft Schooling Sunday!

Then, with him, she found happiness, and for that they did not think. Dan took it, warmed, and gave all that merited his wife, and it was not enough. Together we now all her friends and footy drugs, in general, everything was fine, but one thing bothered her, a year has passed, but it is not pregnant, and Denis literally raved heir, dreaming of her son.
