Yikes... that last post was five weeks ago. It's not that I haven't been doing anything, far from it. The Internet's been down a lot (having problems with our ISP for quite some time now) and I just never got into the habit of updating blogs and even social networking sites and the like. And on top of that, all the work associated with the end of the first quarter in school (grading papers, finishing grades, meetings, etc.) had me swamped. But since I was also doing crafts to unstress, I have lots to post.
Here's one - a ribbon organizer I made from an shoebox that I was looking to recycle. I love that it's just plain white except for the brand on the lid and the label (with the color, type and other shoe info) on the side of the box, which I thought was interesting so I left it on. I covered the lid with some pretty paisley black and white gift wrap. It's very simple, and I think just a tiny touch of pretty that still allows the ribbon to stand out. Got the idea from a lot of youtube videos of clear cosmetic/makeup bags punched out to make ribbon bags. Made my very own ribbon box.
