What to do with all those toys!
Put those mismatched, underplayed with, forgotten little toys we all have to good use!
If you are like us and have a couple toy bins of mismatched, still want to keep toys that really need to move on, but it would break some hearts to do so....... do what we did and re purpose them into something worth keeping around a little while longer!
Just a few of the toys we used to make into magnets.
Use whatever you may have that the kids want to keep
and that you have approve of worth keeping,
at least for a little while longer.
Use round magnets and hot glue them onto your soon to be re purposed objects.
There ~ new life to old toys and a little lift for the fridge!
Simple, fast, useful, creative, cost effective, green!
All the things we like around here! Remember, keep it Homespun!
If the Lord delights in man's way,
He makes his steps firm;
though he stumble, he will not fall,
for the Lord upholds him with His hand.
Psalm 37:23-24
