Those white picture frames are great. I made a project with them and thought I’d share. Unfortunately, taking pictures of my genius has not always been a hobby.
I drew a black and white abstract flower motif with a sharpie. This is easy and quick because the opening is so small. I got three frames and did 3 drawings. I then put some baby blue ribbon from corner to corner in the back, to hang them with. It was pretty sweet and was a permanent part of my bedroom decor for quite some time!

I can’t believe I am just finding this blog and website. I am absolutely enthralled! Thanks for all your great ideas!

Those moss rocks remind me of a very cool moss ball wreath I saw on line somewhere. I went to my local store today and didn’t find.

I recently saw one of those placements (not colored, though) hung vertically in my friend’s bathroom. She used it as an earring holder. Her dangly earrings were hooked on the slats in the middle of the mat, and her posts were just slid between the slats at the edges. She removed the outer rows of string so the posts could slide in farther. You could also hang necklaces or bracelets in the same way. Genius! I’m totally going to do this in my bathroom, and just spray paint the mat to match.

Those white frames come with white ribbon to hang them with, fyi. I bought 3 at the DT where my mom lives and wish I had bought more, as they don’t have them at my DT.

I bought 2 of those ceramic birds (1 with flower patterned wings and 1 with swirl patterned wings), sanded them smooth, spray painted them white and my sister used them on the sign in table at her wedding.

@Kelli You can also check dollar tree's online store -- you might be able to buy them in bulk there!

I bought every little white frame (above) in my store! I can’t decide whether to use them in my girls crafting class or use them for mini paintings for my upcoming art show! I need to go to a neighboring town to grab the ones in another location! Greedy, but fun!

I’ve seen those placemats around the blogosphere tied together as a table runner.

Those birds I’ve seen a lot. People are spray painting them heirloom white and putting them on a nice candle holder or base as easter decor.

I’ve been eyeing the magnet pocket thingy…I may grab one and see if this works…put your coupons in the pockets; like the ones you are def going to use in one pocket and maybes in the other and then just stick it to the grocery cart for easy access. Hmmm…

I used those white frames. I found some clearance tissue paper at HobLob (an aqua with brown print); I used that as my background and cut out an “H” monogram in brown cardstock and glued it to the tissue paper. The frames come with a white ribbon so all I had to do was hang it. I used another one to put an embroidered monogram that was on clearance at HobLob and a Family definition scrapbook sticker. Love those frames. I think I have one left in my stash.
