Little Shelves!


Above my new desk are these little shelves:
(don't worry! The reveal is coming... a little bit at a time!)


 These hopped into my buggy one day while I was walking down the 90% off isle at Hobby Lobby!
Oh, Darn!
....Don't you hate it when that happens?!


And just in case you need solid proof....



So, I grabbed a can of spray paint that I already had on hand and gave these bad boys a good coat of Krylon's Catalina Mist:


Then I did some light sanding!


After hanging them on the wall, I grabbed some Mason Jars and filled them with fun things like: Glue sticks for my glue gun, bobbins, knobs, chalk.
One of the shelves was missing a drawer, so I grabbed some baby food jars and filled them with little things like: straight pens, beads, snaps, safety pens....



Of course one jar was dedicated to just being pretty:


I love the $5 shelves in the new Craft Room!

Today's tip:
Just because it is missing a piece or a little roughed up, it can still be functional... and pretty too!

I am linking this post here , here and to these awesome places!
