<b><i><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">I wanted to make an altered book but first I had to find some books. I picked up several fabric hardback books at a local thrift shop. I used IOD moulds to make my embellishments for my books.

Return the pan to a medium-low heat stove and use a silicone spatula to continuously scrape the bottom of the pan to keep the sauce from burning. When the sauce is thick and bubbly, remove the pan from the heat and add the mac & cheese. Stir to combine, then taste for salt and adjust as needed. Cool to room temperature, then place the mixture into the fridge to harden.</i></span></div>

<span style="color: #073763; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><i>We love our home but we hate our wire pantry shelves. So I decided something had to be done with them. I had lots of idea such as wood boards, pre-made wire shelf covers, etc. All of which would have cost a lot. So I decided to try foam board instead. I picked mine up at Michael's for 2 for $4.00. I measured the shelves and cut them down using an Exacto knife. Then I simply put them on top of the shelves. I am not finished with the entire pantry yet but so far this works great! I may add contact paper later to give them some color but for now, my issue with everything falling down is resolved. </i></span></div>
