Three years ago, while I was watching a Martha Stewart Show segment, a guest crafter named Cheryl Robinson demonstrated how to make this adorable range made from a cardboard storage box assessorized with simple, everyday items. I was impressed by Cheryl's ability to look upon an ordinary box and imagine its possibilities beyond its intended purpose, then take that idea and begin to market it… a  normal person like you and I… with something unique to offer. I wasted no time ordering her kit and set about assembling it immediately upon its arrival on my doorstep. (Click here for a detailed description of what is included in the kit.)

Now, to help expand her business, Cheryl has entered her Crafty Buffet Oven Kit in Walmart's "Get on the Shelf Contest." Despite the fact that I believe Walmart should select Cheryl's kit on its own merit, the contest is based upon securing the greatest number of votes. Will you join me in helping her get this sweet creation into Walmart? Voting starts March 7th and runs thru April 3rd, 2012. You can VOTE ONCE PER DAY.

    Oh, I just love your little additions here…you were having fun playing with it yourself, weren’t you! Sweet as can be! I did one for the kids here too (not this same one)…but I guess I was too slow in sharing it!

    Lesson learned. When you have an idea, you musn’t fall asleep at the wheel, let moss grow under your feet, and so it goes. Sometimes, though, the pure joy in the moment is all that is important.
