Metamorphosis Monday #14 / Tackle it Tuesday

Ok, I know that it is Tuesday, so I am combining my Metamorphosis Monday and my Tackle it Tuesday posts.

This weekend I cleaned up my craft room and painted my ribbon rack! Here is the metamorphosis of my ribbon rack. I saw a similar one (but much smaller) online somewhere and asked my Dad if we could make one like it. I wanted to be able to pull my ribbon on and off easily without having to thread/un-thread all of the spools from a dowel. This is what we came up with!

Yep. That is me with a nail gun. This is what it looks like now!

All of my loose ribbon is in the jars, and my spools are on the ribbon rack. I love that I have lots of room to grow, especially since I buy the new PTI ribbon every month. I figure I have a year or so before I will run out of room. The stray wire you see peeking out of the top is for a smoke detector that we have, but need to install. I still need to take pictures of the rest of the room while it is still clean!

Tackle it Tuesday

TTBigButton

This is my first Tackle it Tuesday! I tackled our junk drawers. You know, we all have them. Those drawers in the kitchen that you shove miscellaneous items to get them off of the counters. I bought two drawer organizers and spent about 15 minutes going through the drawers and throwing stuff away.

The drawers were always getting stuck they were so full. This is what they look like now:
