Pinterest Project Prospects

Posted on July 12, 2013 by Rena Anne

How do you like my title alliteration?

I worked on a DIY post for Life As Mom today (coming next week) and it got me thinking of all the other projects I would like to attempt some time this summer.

1. Simple Bows – You know how much I love bows! I should make some of my own.

2. 6 Strand Flat Braid – I can’t wait to make some super glam friendship bracelets!

3. Double Braid – How cool is this? I wonder if I could do it to my hair?

4. Tie Dye with Sharpies – I have two white v-necks just waiting to be prettied up.

5. Sun-Dyed Fabric – Imagine the possibilities!

6. Lace Pockets On Colored Jeans – Looks super easy, but adds great new detailing to your butt. 😉

7. Bleach Pen T-Shirts – So easy. Not sure what design I would choose to bleach.

8. High-Waisted Sash Skirt – I am an amateur sewer, but I think I could manage this.

Happy Fashion Friday!

For a very long time I’ve kept my necklaces in two boxes. The first one was for my large costume jewelry and the second for necklaces that are a bit more delicate. The delicate ones I kept in individual plastic baggies to protect them.

This system worked for a little bit, but I found myself going for the same necklaces all the time because it wasn’t easy to see all my other options.

Also, I got really lazy at putting things back in the box and they ended up all over the top of my dresser, which thrilled my husband. 😉

Exhibit A

I needed a change, but I didn’t know how I wanted to organize them. I watched this video (fast forward to 4:00) and really liked how she had all her necklaces hung, so I started the hunt for a good hanger system. At Target I found one that was amazing because each hook was broken up into three hooks, so there was a total of fifteen places to hang different groupings of necklaces.

I started out by laying all my necklaces on my bed in color order. (What you can’t see are two little boys that insisted on helping me.)

Then my incredibly handy husband hung the hook system up for me and I transferred the necklaces to it. The whole process took only about a half hour and I’m so happy to have all my necklaces visible and my dresser top cleared off.
