Re-Purposed Photo Frame

Another successfull organizing solution! Take an old photo frame and remove the glass and the backing, wrap some mesh around it and finish with hanging it up with your favorite ribbon! I have clipped on several hair and clothing accessories that I have created. This can also double as home decore, if you add some photos and memorabilia you will have a charming and artistic collage. The bigger the frame, the more you can add to your collage.

Re-Purposed Hanging Mail Rack

This is a perfect way to store various fashion accessories. Easily hangs on an over-the-door wreath hanger. This is one of my favorite organizing projects this Spring.

I love the Bo Bunny Collection Et Cetera, it is so universal, I can add any type of photo to this album. This book is jam-packed with countless opportunities for photos and journaling, I am still adding to it. This is an everyday album that I can add new or old events to, along with all my thoughts and inspiration in life. There were definitely no restrictions in this project for me, because it is not limited to a specific theme or event. I will probably make more similar to it just for fun!

Just a little something to say...

With a few leftovers from a previous project, I created this Shabby Chic Card...leave no scrap unturned!


....Thank you.


Who says WE can't have an Easter basket too?!

Chic Easter Basket
I included several decorating options to choose from, but you are certainly not limited to them. There are endless possibilities to embellish this ensemble it just depends on your style. This was so easy and quick you will love the textures and  materials I used to create this and I think you will have just as much fun with this idea as I did. It's not too late to make one for yourself, your sister, mother or bff. There are so many basket fillers for these such as: candles, perfume, lotions, gift cards, jewlery, cards, craft supplies, or embellies. Just get creative and spread the love! (BTW; you can also create a masculine themed basket for the gents in your life as well!)

Spring is here! Time to get organized..yay!

Here is one of my organizing tricks: a re-purposed planter crate. Who would have thought huh? I found this treasure at a local thrift store and I originally bought it to organize my buttons. Now I have added flowers, jewels, butterflies, metal trinkets, and anything else that I could easily fit into these compartments.
This is one of my favorite organizing trays, I can just set it on my craft table and easily dig through my color coordinated embellishments. This tray is 14x14" and each compartment is about 4.5" wide so I can grab a fist-full without making a huge  mess!(granted I do have child-like hands lol) If you can find or build a wooden tray like this, you can paint it to your desired color and you will love it too! 8)

Charming Charms

I just added some new vintage charms to this album and it definitely completes the vintage look I was going for when I designed this book. I attached a pretty cameo and locket to the dangling key chain. I also added a little chandelier crystal to dangle on one of the lower vines to add a little more glimmer(as if there wasn't enough bling..lol). Just wanted to share these little details with you hope you like it as much as I do.
