A few of the girls and I had a wine and craft night last week. It was a blast and ill be blogging about it soon don't you worry---but while we were there I made a self-realization. I'm a hoarder. Not so much an A&E hoarder, but I save things (others may call it junk) and store them because I know at any moment inspiration could strike...And the bolt of inspiration struck hard this weekend. Singer sewing machine style.
So we bought an old singer a while ago and used the legs to make a vanity in the powder room.
When we took it all apart, I saved the pieces and parts. Of those parts were 4 drawers that I knew would make something great one day...
So first---ever have one of those frames that doesn't have a stand on the back? I was having this same dilemma when (ding-ding-ding-ding-ding!) I thought maybe I could use one of the drawers to prop it up. A little potpourri to fill in the gap anddddd...
Watch-out----this crafty B* is on fiya!!!
The next one was inspired by all the Pinterest coffee bars I've been seeing lately. Why not use the drawers as shelves? Then hang the mugs below them? Oooooh, then even line the drawers with some scrapbook paper I had lying around? Yes, yes, this will be good.
Step 1: glue the scrapbook paper into the bottom. I over estimated the amount to cut and then used a razor blade to trim the excess.
All finished and lined with paper.
Step 2: add the hanging hardware to the back and cup hooks to the bottom (both daily found at Home Depot)
Step 3: Hang away and accessorize!!!
