Washers.

Got to love when you can make cute things out of stuff that is for boys.

I was at Home Depot and grabbed me a handful of washers.
(The check out guy asked what sizes they were. Really? like I would know.)

I got this cute idea to dress up my daughters knobs on her bed.

A closer view:

Just spray painted the knobs and washers (primer is a must)

Cut out whatever paper you want to decorate or just leave it painted. (oh, how I wished I had bought myself that circle cutter that was on sale at JoAnns.)

Mod Podge together.

Put back together. Just a little touch of cuteness.

THEN
While purusing...ran across a couple other cute projects that involved washers:

I think I'm done. Notice the necklace theme. I'm sure there are plenty of other cute things that could be done with washers that aren't jewelry related.  
You could even play penny can with them for you Cougar Town fans.

  2. I love those washer door knobs. Now, if I saw a bunch of washers I would have thought, 'Oh. A bunch of washers.' Love your creativity.
