SPEEDYTV TUTORIALS





Today, for the Christmas in July Blog Hop, Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co. has 3 stocking stuffers You Tube tutorials for you by Patty Penn and they are excellent and very easy to follow!



The first project of the three is the hand sanitizer box.  If you click on that hot link - it will take you to You Tube and Patty's video tutorial on how to make this fun project.  I added a little ribbon on mine - so it can be hung on the tree - if you so desire.  Inside is a small bottle of hand sanitizer.  You could also use hand lotion, body wash, etc.  This would be a fun little gift for the folks in your office or a little extra something to go along with another gift!






Our second project of the three is a cute little Tic Tac cover.  This is another fun little extra gift for the office staff.  Patty has another wonderful tutorial for this Tic Tac cover.  Again, just click on this hot link and it will take you to You Tube for the directions - fun and easy!!





Our third and final stocking stuffer gift was this fun giant paperclip bookmark.  The top photo is the front and the second photo is the reverse.  I have it leaning against a piece of cardboard so it will stand upright - so I didn't have to have my fingers in the pictures!  Again, Patty did a wonderful job on her You Tube video tutorial on this giant paperclip bookmark.  I hope you'll stay tuned all week - the tutorials start on July 23rd and run through July 29th!!

I know I had fun with these projects and I bet you will too!
