Well, project #1 is completed. I know I have mentioned several times about these "projects" I am going to do, and usually I buy all of the stuff to complete them but um...never actually get around to completing them. But score one for me because I completed it! I mentioned several weeks ago going exploring at a local antique mall and about all of the little treasures I found there.
One thing I found was a set of tacky little shutters that you would find at someone's house that likes to decorate in a country theme.
(No offense if you have something like this at your house.)
(eww)

So, what do you think I am going to do with them....well prepare to be amazed!
It is now, a stylish, pistachio card/memo holder! I can't wait until I get back to Georgia and can hang this on my kitchen wall to keep up with all of the cute cards/photos we recieve!

Look back for more things to come, now that I finished something it feels good. I love the euphoria I feel from taking something from trash to treasure. Now I will just sit here and wait for HGTV to call me and ask me if I would like my own TV show?? Yes please!
