Shelves To The Rescue!

Shelves To The Rescue!

It has been so (happily!) busy between friends, family and a few seaside escapes that time flew by so fast over the last weeks in Greece.

How To Store Your Leftover Ribbon Pieces

How To Store Your Leftover Ribbon Pieces

Finally, a pretty way to store pieces of leftover ribbon! I like to keep used fabric ribbons just in case they come in handy the next time I wrap a present or decide to do a project. But they don’t look very nice in that shoe box.  And I can never find which one I… Continue Reading
