I have a few projects going on at once here. One is almost done & I hope to be able to show you that soon! It involves a chair & some fabric : ) That’s all I can hint at for now.
But something nice I found……chalkboard organizer
I always see this at IKEA & think “I should get that”. But I have never picked it up. Well there it was sitting in Goodwill. And at $4 it was just my price.
So I did some rearranging in the mudroom. I decided to switch out the chair & place this chalkboard above it. It’ll be a great place to write my “remembers” for each day. With the girls back packs right there, it will help with all the little everyday reminders. Plus it has a great space below to hold mail etc. I actually had plans for something different for that space, but for now I’ll give it a try.
And for a whole $0.29.……. This beautiful little container! 29 cents!!! Crazy!!
It just spoke to me. I love the bird symbol & it has inspired me to get work on some new projects . The bottom and inside are slightly rusty but for what ever reason the top is like new.
Its so cheerful and just what I need to get through the rest of this winter. Not sure what it will hold, but for now it makes me happy just looking at!
