Blog Challenge #1

Jax Bean Stalks 1st Challenge!

Hi followers, I am so excited to announce my blogs 1st challenge! I wanted to challenge everyone to something that is important in my life...Recycling! I think it is important to find other uses for things like packaging that would normally get thrown in the trash. I try not to throw anything away! I am a big recycler and am lucky to have a really nice curbside recycling program in my town.

My challenge to you is re-use an item that would normally get thrown away. It could be a pickle or peanut butter jar, a cereal box, a tin canister you name it...

I would like all entries to have a before and after picture to allow everyone to see the items original intent. Be creative! I know all of you have something you can recycle into this challenge. I am so excited to see what you come up with!!

I will pick one person that shows the best transformation of the item along with creativity! I will have a RAK for the winner!

The challenge will run from : March 8- March 22

The winner will be announced the week of my birthday...April 7th

Please send all entries to fattire7@hotmail.com. In the subject line please put "Recycle Challenge".

Entries should include before and after pictures of the project, your name and email address and a couple of lines about your project: like what inspired you to pick the item.

Good luck ladies....now get out there and recycle!!

Here is my take on a Kashi cereal box!
