I have a problem with everything having a place. That includes my post-it notes. I have a cute little holder I have had for awhile but since I have been changing the decor of the office I wanted something that matched the room. With some decorative flair.
This is going to be an easy peasy project. Just some 5 x 7 plastic frames, scrapbook paper, ribbon and embellishments.
Take the "fake family" out of the picture frame. Which reminds me I have photo frames on my walls with fake families in them. ha-ha
I just used the paper out of the frame as a template and cut out the scrapbook paper.
Easy enough...
Now I just took some ribbon and hot glued it around the frame.
Hot glued a pretty little flower. You can add anything, charms, bows, or maybe a small frame with a photo in it. Endless possibilities.
I just went for simple and glued my flower in the corner on the ribbon.
It is perfect placement for the next step.
Just take off the backing of your post-its and stick it right on the frame.
Cute, right???
Well, I didn't stop there. I had an extra plastic business card holder sitting around and decided to hot glue it to another plastic frame. And, slid in another piece of scrapbook paper.
Add some ribbon and a flower and you have a cute business card holder.
I think I may make a couple of these for gifts. What do you think???
Don't forget you can catch me over at The Taylor-House every Sunday...Come see last weeks project in case you missed it.
Make sure you stop on over and say, "Hi". Stay awhile and check out Chrissy's fantastic little place in blogland!!
Make sure you come back tomorrow for my BIG announcement.
Have a CRAZY BEAUTIFUL week!!
Please come vote for me!! Pretty Please!!!
I have made some in the past for my desk at school, but I could use on in my craft area.
ReplyDeleteThose are super cute and kinda valentinesie! Thanks for linking this up to a Frugal Crafty Home
ReplyDeleteCute! Cute! Cute! Those would make perfect gifts.
ReplyDeleteWell that is what I call Creative! They are adorable!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea. I think the flower is my favorite part!
ReplyDeleteI did these at our Women's Retreat last year for the craft seassion. Was delighted at how many "ohhh, I'm not crafty" women" felt a bit more talented afterwards ;)
ReplyDeleteThese are so pretty! (And easy...I love easy!) I found you on Boogieboard Cottage. I love the business card holder - great idea!

Okay, now how cute and creative is that? Way better than my sticky notes just thrown on the desk lost under papers!

ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful! I used to make post it note holders- thanks for the reminder. I could use some at my office at work.
ReplyDeleteHow adorable...and simple to make!
ReplyDeleteSo adorable...easy and very creative - perfect combination for me (lazy - but needing to create something pretty for my desk!!). Great ideas. I did a project (Making a Realtors Office Pretty) that was on the same link party - I think It's So Very Cheri or Three Mango Seeds - can't remember now which one i found you on!! Hope you will visit me as well!
