More Glass Storage Jars

by Becky on July 2, 2009

Storing Stampin' Up! SuppliesI decorated a couple more jars today.  The tall skinny jar has little spools of ribbon that I use as prizes.  These spool are the plastic middle part of the Stampin’ Up! spools and then I put approx. 2-3 feet of ribbon on there depending on the thickness of the ribbon.

The square jar has all of my Sizzlet and Embosslit Dies in it.  I was very excited to find I could fit them in there so nicely and still be able to sort through them.

Once again, these are jars I’ve picked up at Yard Sales for a quarter a piece.  I think they make neat storage and I’m excited to add them to my collection.  I have pictures of more Stampin’ Up! storage jars if you would like to see them.

Decorating my Storage Jars

by Becky on June 29, 2009

On Board Lovely Letters ChipboardI picked this jar, and one just like it, up at a yard sale this past weekend.  I’m not sure why, but I’ve been excited to find some fun looking jars lately.  I decided to take this jar and use it to store small stamps I’m planning to give away as prizes.

I used some Double-Stitched Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon and On Board Lots of Letters Chipboard.  I designed this jar to match two others I have had for a while, perhaps you’ve seen them before.  For those of you who havent’ seen them though, I’ll share a picture.

Stampin' Up! Chipboard and RibbonI hope have a few other jars I’ve acquired lately so I look forward to turning them into beautiful storage as well.  I certainly wouldn’t say my house is organized or that the little organization I do have is very pretty, but I’m working on it!  Stay tuned for more Stampin’ Decor as I get it done!

I didn’t really start out with the intention of this [...]

Fun Mr. Owl Card

June 25, 2009

Sometimes it’s fun to be creative and goofy at the same time!  I had a lot of fun making this owl today.  Despite the long eyelashes it reminded me of  a little old man so that’s why I decided to go with the “Happy Retirement” message from the Teeny Tiny Messages stamp set (coming out [...]
