So Much To Do
Anyone else wake up at 3:00am and suddenly remember all of the things they forgot to do? Why can I never remember during the day? I decided that I needed a cute little place to jot down my to do list and came up with this: I have been working on re-organizing my kitchen this month and it's amazing how many items I have found for crafting!
How To: Make a Bulletin Board from Wine Corks | Apartment Therapy Re-Nest
Unique frames, vino, and visual organization are a few of my passions, so spotting a bulletin board combining all three got my wheels spinning. Frat-tastic? It has the potential to be, but in the right frame — something unusual but not too loud or ornate — and in the right setting — a wall without much visual clutter —it could be a witty way of organizing the lists of "to do's" or "to try's" (wines) that inevitably end up cluttering the fridge.

Wink Designs: No-sew fabric covered boxes tutorial
These are fun and easy to make (no sewing involved) and look great as storage containers on childrens' shelves or desks. I also decided to make one for myself for sewing pattern storage using the Alexander Henry "Perfect Pattern" print (I love this fabric - such a simple yet genius design!). I'd seen the fabric in various online shops but it sells out quickly so I was really happy to find that Tessuti now has some both in-store and online.http://psimadethis.com/post/503165737/p-s-be-eco-and-look-chic-o-im-excited-to
P.S.- Be ECO and look CHIC-O!
