Happy new year, all! I’ve been keeping myself busy and crafty. I tend to get overwhelmed with ideas and start one thing before finishing another. This year I’ve resolved to take one step at a time, and to better manage my projects. (well, that was one of many resolutions for this year). So, I was given a task of making a tip jar for our short bus. My Boyfriend asked me to make one for him while he carts the drunks around from bar to bar and show to show. I GLADLY accepted. I don’t think he’s ever asked me to do something crafty or arty for him in 5 years! I got really excited about it and cranked one out while I was watching the hilarious tv show “Raising Hope”. I got a glue stick, yellow construction paper, a cardboard based lidded container, Sharpies, and went to work! I cut a hole in the top of the lid for the deposits, wrote the word “tips” in the shape of the bus (kinda), and used my artists eye for color to give it some pop! Whoo! Tip jars were never as cool as this one!
Best of all, I can put a big check in a box labeled DONE next to this project! WEEEE!
