Casserole Carrier



I like to make homemade wedding gifts whenever I can. I saw this Casserole Carrier Tutorial from Two Little Hooligans and I was allll over it. She has really detailed instructions. The only thing that I didn't do (and should have) was add a little extra length because the Pyrex that I found had built in glass handles. But I still love how it turned out. Halfway through I remembered an old post from Jill where she added belting instead of making the handles. She also etched the couples last name into the Pyrex. Done. I shamelessly copied two crafters!



I used a super bold print for the outside and a cute little dot pattern for the inside. 

I also added a label.



And etched the glass.




And now I want one :) Have you made any homemade wedding gifts lately?

  13. that is genius! i mean, how many times do you have dinner with friends and show up with a dish and have nothing pretty to carry it in. i literally brought apple crisp to a neighbor's party last weekend and had that exact pyrex pan. i think i would have impressed everyone if i showed up with it in that! love it!
