I will post some pics next week, hopefully!
I am SO excited about it, but it isn't picture perfect yet.
I also (finally) had some time to participate in Made it Monday. My first one!
(Grad school delayed my craftiness!)
Ok, so I totally HATE open shelves.
Those of you who are organized, probably love them, but I am a stacker, so they don't work for me.
So my first project was to make some curtains.

| I use tension rods to keep them in place. |
 |
| Ok, I know this is not a shelf. I just think the sink area looks so plain! |
 |
| Much prettier! |
Then I decided to get started designing some new book bin labels. (Tara, great minds think alike!)
They aren't quite ready yet either.
(Gee, I sound kind of like a slacker! I should get off Pinterest and create a little more, I guess.)
My personal Made it is more like a Made It Grow, my flowers. They have thrived inspire of 100 degree weather! I am so excited about that.
I love finding plants each year that I have never tried to grow. Here are a few of my treasured plants:
 |
| red chenille or fire tail |
 |
| 'Rock Star' astromeria |
 |
| Portulaca or desert rose. The only thing that is meant to grow in the heat! |

The curtains above the sink are a great idea. I think I will have to borrow that one for my own classroom :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration!

I love the curtain above the sink! Your flowers are beautiful.. I've finally just gotten into gardening and keeping pretty flowers. But, I went to visit family for 2 weeks and my boyfriend managed to kill them all. Oh well. At least it wasn't me this time!
