To find and view the products I used, click here. We can always text, call, tweet, or facebook each other, but sometimes it’s nice to leave a handwritten note or personalized message for a loved one! When I saw the 7gypsies Ticket Holder (5SG-12623), I knew it would be great for displaying pictures, but wanted to try and come up with a way for it to be used at home. One of my colleagues gave me the inspiring idea of turning it into a family memo and message holder! This is a great creative living idea, and you can coordinate the colors of your ephemera to suit your home’s décor. Since it’s a memo board, I decided to use a picture of an old telephone. I took the picture myself, and just in case you don’t happen to have an old phone to photograph, we are offering the picture as a FREE download, as well! The picture is already altered with a sepia tone—just print it out on some kraft colored paper (5TH92918) for a cool, vintage look. Insert the telephone picture, a Cahier (5LE-FN7), assorted ephemera, and some envelope and flower staple products (5GR-4500233 & 5GR-4500300) into the display. You can easily add your handwritten notes and sentiments into the display as needed to communicate with your family. I created a coordinating jar to hold pens and pencils or other odds and ends. Simply wrap strips of the brown Music Tape (5SG-17852 - DISCONTINUED) and the Check Sherbet Fabric Tape (5DK-CKSHERB) around the jar. The colors of the tapes coordinate beautifully with the color of the Cahier I used. On the jar, wrap a piece of dark brown twine or floss around the middle and tie a bow. Use one of the Petit Carnet French Notebooks (5SG-15169) to use in front of the holder for handwritten notes also. | |
