The 14 Things You Need On Your Résumé To Land Your Dream Job Whether you’ve got a freshly printed diploma, one that’s collecting dust in a closet or you’ve strayed away from the path of formal education, having a strong résumé is a vital asset in today’s economy. While it’s crucial that a résumé should highlight the specific talents and achievements of an individual, there are universal rules that, if followed, will increase your chances of landing an interview for your dream job. A study performed by TheLadders in 2012 using “eye tracking” technology revealed that recruiters spend an average of only six seconds reviewing a résumé before determining if the candidate is a match.

Kiss Flip Book When my father was battling cancer, Emily wanted to make something extra special for him. Something that would fit in his wallet, so it would be easy for him to take it to chemo and radiation treatments. Isn’t she so thoughtful?? When I came across this post at Color Me Katie (I adore her!!), I knew it was just the right project! I took a series of photos using heart-shaped sticky notes on the wall as shown. She looks so young in these photos — amazing how much she has grown in two years!! I printed them at wallet-size, maybe even a bit smaller. I piled the photos up into a book, and stapled them into place. It’s such a simple, easy project, but flipping through this little book never fails to make my dad smile! Have fun!!

How to Make an Upcycled Plastic Bottle Cap Mosaic DIY Upcycled Plastic Bottle Cap Mosaic. I've seen similar colorful paper coiled art on Pinterest but it seems very time consuming to coil papers so I thought bottle caps would make it an easier project.

Tools: X-Acto knife, course sandpaper and an old paint or glue bottle with a pointy tip or you could just use a plastic baggy. First, I sanded the top of the lids and roughed them up with an X-Acto knife to help the caps stick to the canvas. I started gluing at the center and worked out.
