AZ and the Hydrangea
My task on Sunday was to transplant our hydrangeas from the front yard to the back. I only was able to dig out one. The other two at roots the size of my arm. I wanted to do a little more research before I try to remove them. I may just have to do a little surgery, but just want to make sure.
Jewelry Showcase
With all the rain falling these days I turned my focus onto some small decorating projects inside this weekend.
In our bedroom, I have been wanting to organize my jewelry in a way to showcase some of the pieces. I came up with showcasing them in some picture frames that I backed with cork board.
I picked up a mirror and two frames at Target on clearance. I spent a total of $16 on all three that’s less than $6 per piece!
Step One
The frames did not match and were a little scratched up. So I sanded and spray painted them to match the mirror.
Step Two
I took out the glass in each frame and cut 1/4 thick cork placemats to fit into each frame. The placemats were a great find because regular cork board would be too thick to fit into the frame.
Step Three
I arranged earrings on one frame and bracelets on another. The nice thing about the cork is I can rearrange it as many times as I like.
Bargain Find: Another Free Music Tip
When you purchase at Starbucks remember to pick up a card to redeem a free song. If you don’t know the artist, there is no harm.
Reedem the song via iTunes then take a listen. If you don’t like it you can always delete it!
