Make a counter height Craft Table (from 2 shelves, a table top, and 8 legs) I have been squirreled away down in my basement for several days, opening up boxes, purging junk, and finding new homes for all my craft/sewing stuff. I haven’t been able to find my interfacing for weeks, or my white felt, or ugggh…..my serger thread. So, I finally forced myself to actually open up and clean out the 11 or so boxes that were just sitting in my craft room. They had all been opened and I was able to find a few things as I needed them………but I’ve felt suffocated in my craft room since we moved into our new home (well, rental home), 3 months ago.
However, YAY, it’s all cleaned out. But something that I didn’t have…..but really wanted, was a craft table. No, not just a regular ol’ table to sit at. I wanted something tall that I could walk around and not hunch over while cutting/gluing/designing. So, I bought 2 cube shelves, a plain table top, and some legs. And now I have my own little makeshift Craft Table. Want to know the price? Not bad. Need some links? And that’s it. -Ashley. You Can Put Chalkboard Paint on That? 8 Awesome DIYs to Try.

At long last we are excited to share the process of how we created the Champagne Bubbles "Frou Frou Chandelier" for our boutique (aka Bubble Chandelier for those of you who want a simpler name for it)!

So I’ll forgo the obvious opportunities this topic offers for shelf-referential humor and just get down to business.
