Happy! Happy!

Air out your sheets! I remember my grandmother doing this and the sheets smelled so good! Ingredients: 1C sun, 2C fresh air and relax with a glass of lemonade!
I'm not usually drawn to the color purple or lavender for that matter but I like the simplicity of this. It's a very soothing photo. Another way to get organized!
I like that this doiley vase can work in a lot of different style homes. Very simple and pretty.
Before you throw out those boring flats add a little ribbon to them.
Transform your erasers from dull to delightful. Glue scraps of vintage fabric, wallpaper, and old ads to the backs of standard erasers for retro appeal. Cheerful children's blocks are reinvented as erasers simply by gluing a piece of felt to one side.
I don't usually like bandanna crafts but I really like this one! I might use this in the store for some sort of display -- hmmmmm.
Anyone that knows me knows how much I LOVE polka dots! I couldn't help adding this image. Smile.

Ready To Get Organized

You could use any color if you are not a fan of red/pink. I think a green/yellow color theme would also be pretty. Great ideas and so pretty! If I could only be THIS organized! Thanks Country Home! Love it.
