Look what I made Ma!Apparently at some point in my past I found it trendy, really trendy as I had six bracelets in total tucked away in various drawers, to wear wooden bracelets. At this very moment I am confused as to why I would stack these up my arm or why just one or two wouldn't have been enough of a statement. Who knows maybe I was going for an earthy, mother nature look at the time.
During the winter purge of 2014, where I furiously organized several drawers and closets I found these circular treasures. As I started to bag up my past goodies to haul off to Goodwill, a creative idea struck. I could stack these together with glue and voila - instant pen holder. I don't always re-purpose my belongings but this is a slight bit of inspiration to get more creative before throwing stuff out. Matthew disagrees and says this is how hoarders get started. He may be right but this project took 5 minutes and currently lives to see another day at the Bonventre household. To seal the deal, literally, I used a small amount of hot clue around each layer and used a mason jar lid to close off the bottom. TADA!
