Duo Modern Hanging Bird Feeder

Barcelona Bird Feeder by Monique Engelund

Grab the kids and make your own bird feeder with a painted coffee can, plastic lid and string!

These feeders are made from old glass shades. Find the easy tutorial here.

Most everything becomes lovely when you add a pretty ribbon! Roll a toilet paper roll in peanut butter, cover with seeds, add a sweet ribbon and your birds will love you!

organizing your space
January 4th, 2012
You don’t have to spend an arm and a leg at an office supply or storage store in order to mark off the “Get Organized” line on your resolution list! Look around your home, or local thrift store, and get creative!

Keep a decorative bowl by the door and establish the habit of dropping your keys there as soon as you walk in. You’ll never lose your keys in your house again! I also love to use them in a shelf in my closet as a pretty way to store my jewelry…

Glass containers also make a pretty jewelry display…

A multi-tier pant hanger doubles as ribbon storage…

What in the world would we do without ziploc bags? I use them for everything! They’re a must for keeping small toys or game pieces together.

Take a look inside this medicine cabinet! I love the way they used the magnetic containers for rubber bands and hair pins…

These vintage suitcases are prefect for storing old memorabilia and makes an interesting vignette.
