  • Turn Dollar Tree Pasta Into Snowflake Christmas Ornaments
  • Facts about snowflakes.....Snow isn't just made up of snowflakes. Snow is also made of sleet, which is created when snowflakes pass through the atmosphere and melt a little by the time they hit the ground. Each snowflake is not unique. It's a myth. Identical snowflakes have been found before and each snowflake has six sides because the molecules that make them up are hexagon-shaped. Snowflakes are not at all white. They are actually translucent, where light is reflected rather than passed through. Because of the snowflake's tiny surface, the light scatters in so many directions that it can't absorb or reflect consistently, and the color comes back as white.

  • Mason Jar Wall Sconces
  • Facts about mason jars.....Mason jars didnt make the inventor wealthy even though Mason jars can be purchased at just about any store these days and have a multitude of uses, their creator, John L.

Since most competitor brands didn't start making Mason jars until after 1879, he didn't see any of the profit.
