Whats On Your Work Desk Wednesday

Well. I didn't really do much crafting this weekend. Instead I got lost in the craft room, making more messes while trying to organize. lol. Oh well. Part of the reason for starting more reorg was I went to IKEA and bought some of those lovely spice jars I've been seeing on many blogs. I wanted to put my flowers in them but some are too big....I might have to rethink that and use them for something else.

What I did do was add to my daughter's room. I framed some of her recent art work, including a finger painting, snatched white cardstock with crayon on it (I wasn't watching her close enough), and a watercolor painting. My hubby and brother in law put up some shelving, that probably isn't suppose to be what I'm using it for but it looks super cute! We also put up a few photos in pink frames.

Make sure you pop over to Julia and get your peep on!

  5. I {heart} IKEA. I used to live within driving distance to 3...now I'm anxiously waiting for the one near Denver to open!

    I love having my kiddos art on display in our home. They love it, too!

    Happy WOYWW!

  6. Looks like you have another budding crafter in the making there, Chrissie!
    The framed pictures look great on the wall.

    Loving the spice Jars. They’re going to look so pretty sitting on a shelf somewhere.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog this week.

  7. I don't live anywhere near an IKEA, but it sounds like those jars are a bit too small to work according to your plans. Still, they are darling to look at. Happy WOYWW (#6).

  8. Nice post! No IKEA here, just lots of collectibles, re-usables, and fixer-uperables! As for the Wednesday desk, it's so unsightly and really in need of an overhaul, it's pretty sad! LOL In actual fact, that's been on my list for 18 days straight. Guess it's about time we got cracking!

  10. I had some of those little IKEA spice jars but got rid of them, never thinking about craft storage. May need another trip to IKEA!

  12. Those shelves really do look super cute! great idea :-)

    I have a bunch of those little jars too but I use them for buttons, brads, smaller flowers etc. I use the bigger 'Slom' jars for big paper flowers.

  13. Hi I love what you've done with those photos and the shelves and I love the photo of your daughter admiring them! Shame you can't get those flowers in the jars as the jars are so cute - I'm sure you will put them to good use for something else.
