EASTER SUNDAY

Jesus Died on the cross for us.  He took the punishment for our sins.   He has risen from the grave!  Jesus will return again!  Please ask Him into your heart & repent from your sins.  The Bible says He is faithful to his children!  The cross was given to us in church today.  The idea is to "nail your worries/fears to the Cross of Jesus!"  Have a Joyous Easter season!

Feeling like this?
The Bible says, "Give all your worries and cares to God, For He cares about what happens to YOU."
1 Peter 5:7 (NKJV)

RECYCLE WHAT?                                            
1.  Hooks from clothes (socks, gloves) .  You can fish a string, or thin piece of yarn into the hole.  Crochet a project onto it.

These are a few of the things I recycle for my craft supplies.
2. Argo Cornstarch containers- store beads & things.

 
3. Twist Ties- from bread, rolls, etc.,  They can be tied around small groups of leftover yarn, tie the ends of a bag with your completed projects.
4.  Plastic Bags- anything  non-food like latex gloves, newspaper,etc.,  I put my completed projects in them & tie the end with a "twist tie."
5.  Insert from calculator tape- You can put yarn through the center hole & crochet a project, such as a small tote bag.  I would use (2).  You can also save a bunch of these & use them as large "beads."
