Organizing Your Bedroom Closet

The beginning of the year had me feeling the need to organize my bedroom closet.  A little research reviled I should:

        *add a second rod to my closet-

             *use baskets to hold your handbags, wallets, etc.-

                               

                                                        

             *I already use wood hangers, and they make your closet look

               neater - wood, plastic or wire! (I return the wires back to the 

               cleaners)                 

             *Clear boxes for footwear, and other accessories.

Hope this inspires you to take steps to clean and organize your bedroom closet!

DIY Vision Boards

Happy New Year!











And what better time is it to create a vision board?  They're fun to make, keep you focused on your goals and aspirations and they give you permission to  dream big!

I purchased a 14"X18"  frame by "Simply Stated"  from  Ross.   I prefer using a frame as opposed to poster board, because you can hang your vision board like a piece of art on the wall and look at it everyday!  

I clipped pictures and words from my Oprah, Elle, Departure, Coastal Living, W and Bazaar Magazines.   I arranged everything on the 14"X18" paper that was inside the frame using decoupage.  


I used a beautiful sheer ribbon to hang the frame.   Below are "a few photos":

I hope these ideas help you to create a vision road map for 2016!

Easy, DIY Circle Necklace

This is a simple "make and take" project I designed for my sewing arts and crafts class tomorrow.  To make this necklace you'll need:

*1 circle bead - *leather tie - *2 beads

cut your leather tie 46"

fold your leather tie in half, thread the loop end thru the bead

make a knot on each ties, 1" from the circle bead

tie the end of the leather ties together, add a spot of glue!

Your circle bead can be any size or weight.  Cut the leather ties the length you desire.

                   I hope you enjoy making this simple and easy necklace!

Have a great weekend; and remember to be kind.
