homemade notes tutorial…

Are you a list maker?

I am. I have been my entire life.

My favorite paper for making lists = index cards.

I find lists from my past and laugh. Oh how my lists have evolved. They used to be about Jaxon’s bottle schedule. Now days…they reflect graduate homework, business items and grocery lists.

This week I couldn’t find my index cards but found some cute cards I bought awhile back from Hobby Lobby.

I wanted cute notes…so I pulled out my stamps and ink.

You can make your own using whatever paper and stamp supplies you have. You really don’t even need stamps, you could just use a pen or marker to decorate your own.

Cute notes…are so much better than blah notes.

notes3

The cards I used were meant to be used as folded cards….I just cut each in half to make two.

notes2

I also made a few VENDOR cards to keep handy as well. I always find the cutest vendors for marketing and photography goodies…but I forget who they are. Now I have a cute note card to keep track of all the inspiration.

notes4

I really love my sparrow stamp. It reminds me to f l y and live inspired.♥

notes6

It took maybe 10 minutes to craft the entire set. It is a simple way to make being organized…CAA-UTE!

Hope you are inspired to make your own cute notes…and enjoy your cute organized fabulousity!

Have a BLESSED day!

Organizing my jewelry and belts…

Howdy!!

Happy Friday!

Today I wanted to share a little organizing fun with you.

With my move + new house….I have new organizing challenges. I have a REALLY BIG bathroom…with no storage options. So I created my own.

I made chicken-wire frames awhile back as memo boards.

I used a big one to store my earrings….

jewelry1 logo

I have yet to unpack/find the rest of my earrings…but I really like that they are in full view…ready to pick and wear at any given moment.

jewelry2 logo

It’s really simple…just hang each pair in a section of the wire.

jewelry3 logo

For my necklaces, belts and headbands….I used an old rake head I bought at a craft fair.

jewelry4

It keeps my necklaces from being tangled…and in correct shape.

Super easy…super cute…and super organized!!

Do you have any organizing secrets for jewelry and goodies??

Have a BLESSED day!!
