I first joined Pinterest when I was in the process of buying a house, and because it’s so easy to get sucked in for an entire afternoon, I limited my boards to only house-related posts. Since moving in I’ve expanded my boards to include Do-It-Yourself projects, and now that I’m getting things put away I’ve put a few ideas to good use.
The Scarf Holder
This is actually a twist on a different idea I saw, but the tension idea was my idea. Add a dozen shower rings for $3 and you will always be able to find your favorite scarf when you’re late for work. (Or is that just me?)
The Jewelry Organizer
I used an empty picture frame I hadn’t been using, some twine from a few Christmases ago, and the other metal rod form the scarf project. I love how it turned out!
Boot Noodles!
Two swimmy noodles for $1 each + a pair of scissors and you’ve got yourself a neato way to keep your boots from falling over.
Have you put any Pinterest ideas to work? What are your favorites?
These are all really cool ideas. Love that jewelry rack! 🙂
don’t know if you remember me. haven’t visited in a while. i see lots has changed. i bought my home almost five years ago and i still haven’t unpacked! wish you luck on that front.
i also bought my home after a breakup (not a marriage, tho) and there’s something liberating about it. i felt like an adult for a moment.
do you remember the blog of another writer. she was funny and acted in off off off broadway productions though i think her full time job was working with dogs in some way. she was blond and lives in Georgia, i believe.
Of course I remember you! Thanks for visiting. 🙂
I’m happy to report I am ALMOST unpacked — just don’t look in the basement. I’m in desperate need of shelves.
I have been searching for the best way to hang scarves and I’ve tried several. I’ve tried S hooks & Rings, rings with clips etc. etc.
Would really appreciate it if you could tell me where you found what you call, shower rings, that you were using?..
Thanks very much.
