Here's my next idea to spruce up my desk at work. I wanted something for my desk to put notes on, pictures, reminders, so this note holder is what I came up with:
You just need one of those large black binder clips available at Wal-Mart or Staples. I covered the base with designer paper, added a ribbon and Sweet Pea Stitched Felt pieces, and there you go! Sweet and adorable.
You can attach your Sweet Pea Felt pieces with Stampin' Up's glue stick, as it states right on the stick that it is for paper, fabric, etc. The glue stick works well, as does glue dots and Sticky Strip to hold these adorable pieces in place.
Check back tomorrow for another idea, and remember to comment on the blog your thoughts and ideas about these projects, so you can get a FREE handmade gift from me!
Yes Jan since I am a picture freak I would love to have one of these binder clips to hold a pic of my 2 baby boys on my table too great idea!!!

Cute idea for showing off pics, notes to remember, etc. You are starting to convince me that I "need" these felt flowers. :-)

I just loved the basket idea. The basket would be a great Easter basket or Mother's Day gift. The clip & card would be great in the basket.

I did have fun, and I worked on it a little more one week night.
I'll tell ya if you ever have a baby, get a walker, Sadie has one and that's what allowed me to do some work, she zipped back and forth around my feet while I painted!!!

I just got off the phone for something unrelated and we were talking about the self-service revolution in the workplace, How can a customer care rep comments on a restructure or capital raising?
The falafel, the hummus, the whole weird wonderful waffleizer idea. Love this, yes I do.
