Nutty or Nice?

We had a nice birthday lunch for Jackie today who's turning 20 on Tuesday.  It's going to be a crazy week, so Sunday was the only day we could all get together.  Then we had a 2 hour Girl Scout meeting with the last 3 in 12th grade.  We finished phase 1 of their t-shirt quilts (selecting and cutting down their shirts).  A little laundry, some other chores and now a little crafting time - woohoo!  Kim and Samantha are downstairs working on signs for Kim's booth at the fair.  If you go to the NEA Fair this week, make sure to stop by and get an airbrush tattoo or face paint!!!  They gave me a temporary tattoo last Monday, I even shaved my legs today and it's still there.  Tell her that her mom sent you.

Today's project is a fun jar of holiday peanuts.
I found these cute spice jars at the Dollar Tree.  One side of the lid is a shaker and the other opens wide enough to pour out the peanuts.  I wrapped a little Maritime DSP and Soft Suede card stock around the jar then added the fun nutcracker from the Santa Stache stamp set.  

I love the take on "naughty or nice" as "nutty or nice" to go with the nutcracker, and of course, the peanuts!!!
