Pardon the Interruption....

Hey y'all! Hope everyone is doing well! Just wanted to take a moment to pop in and beg for your forgiveness for this new brief absence. Right now I'm at my momma's house using her laptop because not only is our laptop experiencing some difficulties, but our broadband modem has bit the dust. So frustrating!! I think we are all going a little loco not having an internet connection. Hopefully though we should be back up and running by the weekend (i hope!) and I will more than likely be posting my Your Memories Here project later on from my momma's computer as well. Until then, bare with me and know that I'm craftin' and thinkin' of y'all - cause you are awesome!!!!

Create a DIY Prima Organizer w/Your Memories Here!

Hey y'all! I'm back again to share another Your Memories Here project with ya - this one a super cute & easy, upcyled DIY organizer for your craft room! I had originally planned to share a Valentine project, but decided some of y'all might need a break from all the lovey dovey crafts out there - especially today. Not everyone celebrates Valentines & not everyone has someone to share it with, so I hope you enjoy my crafty container today that, in its former life, was french fried onion can. LOL! You can really look anywhere around your house for items to spruce up & help organize any room in your house, especially your crafty area. So not only can you feel good about crafting something useful, but your helping out the environment too. And wouldn't a cutesy can like this be adorable holding a special goodie bag filled with treats too?!

Supplies

Patterned Paper/Die Cut Butterflies - Cosmo Cricket (pixie-licious & upcycle)

Bling/Flowers/Trim - Prima

Ink - Staz-On

Stamp - Studio G
