Sneak Peek: Walk-In Closet I needed a bulletin board where I could keep a school calendar, assignments and party invitations visible.  I had this frame on hand that I purchased at a thrift store a few months back.  It was the perfect size to convert into a bulletin board. I also needed something to hold pencils nearby.  I am trying to pull off this redo without spending very much money, so I started think of something I had on hand to use.  That's when I had this bright idea: use the two empty chip canisters I had just chunked in the trashcan. Just so you don't expect the full reveal in the very near future, I thought I'd show you how the closet currently looks.  Like I said, it's a mess!!  But little by little I am making progress.﻿ {linking up here: a bowl full of lemons, french country cottage}
Posted by Leigh Anne at 5:40 PM I know your space will be wonderful after you finish. Don't feel bad...it took me a month to clear out my son's old room that I'm converting to a 2nd guest room...it looked like a hoarders episode!

September 5, 2012 at 6:27 AM I like the idea of covering the cans with twine. Great idea! By the way...I love the look of your blog. It's so calming! Glad I found you.
Also, the canvases on your last post...do you sell those?
