I recently rearranged some things in my craft room.. moved some frames from one shelf to another etc. Just little things, but it left me with this little brushed steel magnetic memo board thing that didn't really fit on any of the other shelves it used to reside on. To be honest.. I have never really used this thing to it's potential, wasn't quite sure what to do with it.
Finally it clicked! Instead of having random sheets of paper on my desk with my current to-do list scribbled on them (getting buried under other things, dropped on the floor.. completely lost ha ha ha!).. it would be the perfect home for my revolving to-do lists! Right on my desk! Who ever would have thought of that (as I roll my eyes at myself)!? hee heee!
Cute right? Well.. I happened to see this challenge on the KI Memories blog, 'scrapping off the page' ..and this was sitting in front of me, and all of a sudden I was inspired to give it a bit of a funked up look!
Yes, I think I might be inspired to actually keep track of my to-do lists better! Who knew being organized could be so fun (and cute)!? ha ha!
Supplies used: punched butterflies from this KI patterned paper, cut these border strips in half, took the stickies off the back of these metal badges and turned into magnets.. and printed off these flowers using a Digi KI kit! Oh, and almost forgot.. I used these gems down the bodies of the butterflies. :)
Is it weird that I am now looking around the house wondering what else I can give a little makeover to? ha ha! Thank you for the inspirational challenge Staci!!
this is so cute! i have four 12x12 framed cork board in front of my desk (i'm staring at them right now) ... and yet i never pin anything up there. at all. they're totally blank. yet i have papers and notes all over the place. lol!
