Snap Cap Lids

If you are an avid crocheter like me, then you will appreciate this topic.
I crochet a lot. I have a lot of leftover yarn that I like to ball up to keep it from getting tangled.
However, when I use the balls of yarn, they roll all over the place if I don't have something to keep them in.
In comes Snap Cap Lids.
It is a clear cannister that has a screw on lid, and then the lid actually has another lid in it that flips up. There's a tiny hole in the lid for you to thread the yarn through. You can take your project with you without the yarn spilling out all over the floor, and you can keep an eye on how much yarn you have left, etc.

It's really handy. It comes with a handle and everything.

They're pretty new. I got mine at Wal-Mart. The patent is still pending and their website isn't even really up and running yet. But, if you can find a Snap Cap Lid, it is totally worth the purchase.

Now, if I could get a good deal on a yarn baller.

These Snap Cap Lids come in two different sizes and run about $7-9.

Took A Turn

Ok, so I originally had this site pegged as a place to talk nice about my husband. I was neglecting it.
So, I figured if I was going to neglect something, it would be this site, with a different format.
I talk nice about my husband in every other part of my life, so I don't feel that I need to have one specific place for it. If I have to have one place where I talk nice about him, then that tells me that I'm not doing it enough. It should be a natural part of my life (which, it is). It shouldn't be something I have to remember to do everyday (because it is habit). But, I don't like the word habit.
Anyway, just wanted to explain why I changed what I'm talking about, here...
