Pretty Fabric Storage : muymolon

This is a cute way to store fabric. Easy an inxpensive too! Of course it wouldn’t work for serious yardage, but we all have half yards and fat quarter multiplying daily don’t we? OK, that’s just me? I’m OK with that. ;)

DIY Cork Pencil Holder and Organizer : Curbly | DIY Design Community

Stacked cork trivets (Available at IKEA and Amazon) make a great pen/pencil holder that works as a memo station too. This works for me as I never seem to have enough Post-It notes, but I always have pretty little push ins about.

Coffee Bean Makeup Brush Holder : The Creative Imperative

Any storage/organization option that makes use of the deliciously smelling coffee bean is a-OK in my books. Instead of using vase filler, this idea uses coffee beans to store make up brushes upright. <3

DIY Rolling Bar Cart  DIY Ideas

I found the photo @ unplugged because they had a great idea of doing the same with a rolling mini office. I love the original idea as well but it works on many levels. A rolling craft centre for you and/or your children. A cooking centre complete books and and rarely used tools and appliances. Portable shelving is the bees knees no matter how you utilize it.

I have been racking my brain trying to figure out a great idea for a bar(cart). Looking through my archives I found this one. Second hand change tables don’t come along that often, but I have now moved them up to the top of my “I need this for this” list.

I would totally rock this mailbox if I had an old G4 laying around!

INU YOCHI Dog Pod by Liron Tzanhany via Yanko Design

When we had two amazing dogs, they loved to ‘root’. This dog pod would have been right up their alley. Although, one to fit an Australian Shepard/Border Collie cross and a large Springer Spaniel might take up a bit of real estate.

Recycled pour spout for a mason jar. For those of us who do not buy salt with the convenient pour spout (I buy sea salt in bulk). I do however, buy half and half cream a couple times a week with this very same spout. I hope it works for me.

DIY Snug Mug Spoon Wall Rack by Patricia Heal via Readymade.com

You might have to look at this a second time to grasp the brilliance of it. (OK that was just me?) Anyway! This is amazing. The simplicity of the project added to the recycled spoons is the perfect mix. Would you have thought to stick some spoons and a some tubing to hang your mugs? Bonus points if you make it so that can use the spoons to stir the coffee.

Clicking the link or photo takes you to the written instructions with video.

Two years later, I still love this idea. If only our new place had enough wall space. Sigh
