Rag rugs are simple to make, very sturdy, and the scrappy mix of colors makes them beautiful. If you don't have many fabric scraps on hand, look in your local thrift store for some old sheets, which yield lots of rug material. This design, which measures 19 inches by 29 inches, is crocheted with several fabrics to create vertical stripes....simple tutorial over at eHow.

Happy Jar

What a WONDERFUL idea - having a Happy Jar!! Andrea says "The Happy Jar is a place where we can collect happy thoughts — maybe a little thing that brightened someone’s day or a major accomplishment or milestone or something that one of us is looking forward to. As the jar fills up, it’s fun to pull out random slips and read happy thoughts. The coolest part is that the Happy Jar inspires smiles on both ends — when you write a slip to drop in and when you take out a slip to read. So sweet."
