Art is Everywhere.

This past weekend was so beautiful we jumped in the car and hit the streets.

With no particular plan in place we landed in DC where we walked around and enjoyed the beautiful spring like weather, while taking in the sights and sounds of the city.  We stopped to capture some beautiful street art along the way. ‪Art is everywhere.

Friday night is for...

Wine, music and crafty projects! :)

Every now and then after a long crazy week, of juggling life and work I just want to spend my Friday evening doing...not much of anything.  In the spirit of the chill out, I recently spent a very low key Friday night at home listening to Maxwell sing while I moisturized my face and organized my life. There may have also been wine involved...maybe.  :)  

My Friday night chill resulted in this really cute re-purpose project that I just had to share with you!  

Manicure essentials organizer: (Wine is optional for this project.) 

This plastic cube organizer was just sitting in my home office collecting dust so I decided to re-purpose it to hold my nail-polish and other manicure necessities: 

 

Just a small selection from my nail polish collection.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This organizer holds quite a few bottles of polish, this thing is two layers deep!

 

Just enough room to hold cotton balls,Q-Tips, a bunch of nail polish, cuticle oil, nail clips, files and even a full size mail polish remover. 

Are you crafty? What type of items have you re-purposed?  Tell me about it, share in the comments!
