Treating a House Lizard Bite?
I live in another country, so I am not aware of what type of lizards you have there. I would go to a doc myself. Are you sure it was a lizard that bit you? I think here they suggest that you get a tetanus shot if you are bitten by anything, and they double...

Reuse Pet Food Bag Under Litter Box
Oops, I forgot to mention the type of pet food bags I am talking about; they are the real sturdy plastic kind made from Duraweave. I really like the suggestions about using the paper pet food bags to put used litter in. I will definitely use that idea! Thanks...
Storage Container for Inexpensive Cat Shelter
Thank you all for your great suggestions! I hadnt thought about flipping it the other way or using a hot knife to cut through the plastic. Also, the suggestion about using two with insulation sounds good, as it would keep them warmer. Ill have to print this...

Have you been to the vet yet? I had a cat whose entire digestive system got blocked up and backed up. He vomited up his food. It showed that his intestines and stomach were completely full on an xray, and they were able to get him cleaned out. And I changed...

The little mittens look like they would also make cute ornaments for a tree or gift tag/ornament.
What can I do with old magazines?
I usually leave them at a laundramat. The people there are sometimes bored while waiting on their laundry to finish washing and drying, and they can take them home with them. They are always gone in no time.
Homemade Children's Toy Boxes

I hadnt thought to try that. I do have some Looney Tunes fabric, that I am going to try to cut the Sylvester the Cat image out from. I cannot find stickers or anything with Sylvester, so when I saw the fabric, I decided I would try it with a small piece of...
Scrapbooking on a Budget
Love your pages! If I would use my imagination more when scrapbooking, I would save more money. I did make a cover for a couple of my albums. I just sewed a slipcover for both of them using fabric and binding; made it like one of those removable book covers...
