A cool treat mint for you

 Is'nt this so cute. I wish I would of thought of this but I guess I overlooked what you can do with empty 2 liter bottles. lol Sorry I don't know who to give credit to I was surfing and came upon this.
Anyway take two bottles cut at bottom of both they will connect back together easily. then just paint add embellishments if wish. I added candy mints in mine for a cute gift. I think they glued theres together but I wanted something you could use after the candy is gone for decoration.
Here it is with the lid off. hugs

 This telephone box holds all my cards for birthdays next year. I cut it from wild card 2 at 7in used a small cheez-its box. All the birthdays I need to send a card and give a call are on that little tag stuck in front of the phone. The small calendar is tacked on front.
 here is the side view. It has accordion fold and each month is on tabs
heres the back and you can see the tabs. This is really great to have so when you make a card slip it in here and use it for an upcoming birthday.
