Mason Jar Tote

I know you all have mason jars looking for a home so today I'm sharing how to build your own diy mason jar tote.  We actually built these totes during the Make & Take class I taught with Jen from House of Wood at the Haven Conference last Friday so I thought I would share the plans with everyone.

Here we are with all the completed totes:

A huge thank you to everyone who attended our class.  You were so enthusiastic and quick too!

This tote is sized for three regular mason jars.  Of course you could fill the mason jars with almost anything and you have a great gift all packaged up!

Field Day Station Signs

While summer is now in full swing and most field day events are long over I still thought I would share how I made the field day station signs for our school and you can pin for later.

These station signs are completely portable, self standing and the game names are interchangeable which makes them reusable from year to year.

To make 8 station signs I used the follow supplies:

8 - 2x3x8 studs

2 - 2x8x12 boards

1 sheet - 1/2" plywood

16 hooks and eyes

2 1/2" & 1 5/8" exterior wood screws

2" finish nails
