using labels the right way

Since we entertain in our home A LOT, I keep lots of little helpful items in stock to make it super simple to throw a party or event together. I have a credenza stocked to the brim with table linens, napkins, salt and pepper shakers, and the like. A couple years ago at Christmas time my mom put these adorable chalk labels in my stocking (she always puts a stocking up for me and my husband, and our little puppy). I used them two or three times and then all of a sudden I couldn’t find them in their usual spot in the credenza drawer. Come to find out my hubs didn’t realize they were re-usable, so he threw them away. Ruh-roh. Fortunately, these little chalkboard gems are everywhere now (I got mine at Hobby Lobby, which I affectionately call “The Hob!”}, so I went out and grabbed a few sheets to keep us well in supply. I keep a liquid chalk pen in the drawer so I can change the labels out whenever needed.

Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels. | Hebrews 13:2
