‘Be Our Guest’ Container with Cantoni Font

By Debisementelli @letterheadgirl

Here’s a really cute idea to make your house guests more comfortable!

Since I had a number of guests over the holiday season and more to come,

I was inspired by this post I found on the

DIY with Grant and Kiley blog where they featured my Cantoni font for the word ‘Guest’.

They used a silhouette machine to cut out  the vinyl letters that were then affixed to the jar.

 Since I do not have a silhouette machine, I decided to create my own using hand lettering.

I found the jar at Target for 9.99. I brought an old toothbrush to make sure it would be tall enough.

I lettered with a small round brush and acrylic paint.

If you need, you can create the wording using fonts on the computer. Print and tape it inside the jar.

Then use a paint marker and make the letters on the outside surface.

It doesn’t have to be perfect.  The idea is cute enough.

Just gather up all those small samples (or anything else that might have made its way home with you

from a  hotel stay) and fill the jar.

I got these from Target.

Now I have a very decorative and useful amenity for my next set of guests.

Easy to make and very useful!

Stay Tuned!

I’m thrilled to announce that Belluccia has put some weight on her curves.

She will soon be available for purchase in BOLD!

Here’s a sneak preview of what she looks like.

I’ll be posting as soon as she is up for sale!
