knack now



Do you have only one earring you can't seem to toss?
A broken bauble?
Cracked Pottery or china?
If you're like me, you have a whole basket of broken dishes and randomness just waiting on a DIY knight in shining armor, a spare moment on the clock, or a wave of creative brilliance to come along and rescue it from the shards bin...

(I actually have one and a half drawers FULL of pretty things I've broken labeled "Future Mosaics")

Here's one idea-charming:
Use it to make magnets from junk, just like Barb from Knack.
(I think you could also use it to make hardware for the jewelry pegboard.)

Now, if only I could find something to do with derelict socks...

  1. Wonderful idea!!!
    Ahh...Derelict socks...We tie ours in a knot for the dogs to play with...until I get tired of seeing them lying around hither & yon on the floor.

    Only...this might not be such a good idea for the mighty Khan since he tends to eat them (i.e. swallow them whole?)

  2. Yes, Khan is not allowed any more socks to play with! He doesn't DIGEST them so well...
