7 Days to St. Patty's - Day #5: Sour Cream Container

Happy Friday Before St. Patrick's Day!!

Do you know what happens when you go to bed and realize that you haven't done your Friday blog post? That's right, you leap from your bed to your craft room in a single bound!! Okay, maybe that is a bit of an exaggeration because I am definitely not Superman, or Superwoman, nor Superanything at the moment except Supertired which means that this post is likely going to be Supershort or possibly even Supersilly because that seems to be the direction in which it is heading!! Having said that, I am going to assume that you are here for my craftiness rather than my antics ... or maybe it is my antics ... or maybe it is for both ... or quite possibly maybe for neither! Whatever the reason, I am glad you are here and I will go ahead and show you today's project before you become like Nicolas Cage and are Gone in 60 Seconds roll your eyes, shake your booty head, and move on to the next blog! Today I present to you ... a sour cream container!!!

Actually, wait just a minute! Before I go showing you my stinkin' cute container, I have to tell you that my original plan was to post a picture of an ORIGINAL sour cream container in addition to my version; however, after days hours of searching, and even calling in additional researchers, a picture of an original container is nowhere to be found!! I kid you not, and I know it's hard to believe, so go ahead and search for yourself!! As a matter of fact, I challenge you to find me a picture of an original single serving sour cream container and in return, I will post the name of the first person who finds it on my blog and make you famous let the world know that you are obviously a much better researcher than I am. I will tell you that we spent close to seven hours searching everything from sour cream, to sour cream container, to single serving sour cream container, to twisted tube, to Daisy (the company that made them), and Borden (in case it wasn't Daisy), and more. We searched every possible word / combination of words we could think of and found zip, zilch, nada, nothing!! Now that I've made a big deal about it being impossible to find a container, I'm sure one of you, my dear readers, will find one in no time at all. So when you do, please post the picture (and link to where you found it) on my Facebook Page for all to see.

And now for my super simple and absolutely adorable St. Patrick's Day Sour Cream Container ...

This container was a lot of fun and exceptionally easy to make using the directions found
HERE. If you decide to make a container of your own, please leave a link to your project in the comments section below - I'd love to stalk your creation see what you made.


Make sure and check back tomorrow! You won't want to miss this ...


That's all for me today!!
Until next time ... Happy Sour Cream Container Searching & Making!!! 


Hugs, Smiles, Blessings, and Happy Stamping!!

7 Days to St. Patty's - Day #3: Fry Box

Welcome, Wednesday Readers!!

We are now T-6 days away from St. Patrick's Day which means that it is time for me to share my third project with you ... a Petite Fry Box!! You probably recall that the first fry box I made was for one of my March SU! CreativeCrew Design Team projects; however, this one is much smaller so it takes a lot less candy to fill it. That means I get to eat more and share less it is much more economical to give as a gift or party favor.

Rather than continuing to bore you with my babbling, I present to you, ladies and gentlemen, my Irish themed Petite Fry Box!!

Quick, cute, and perfect for giving to your child's teacher and/or classmates, a co-worker, or a friend to enjoy!!

That's all for today so I will leave you with tomorrow's sneak peek:

Hallie's Helpful Hints:
 
It was brought to my attention by one of my Canadian readers, have I mentioned that I LOVE hearing from y'all?!?, that she could not leave comments on my blog when using her iPhone; however, she could comment when using her computer.  After doing a bit of research, I found this article, which I believe is the solution for all of you iPhone, iPad, iWhatever users. It worked for her so I am hopeful that it will work for you as well.

Hugs, Blessings, and Happy Stampin'!!
