Paint Chips

I love color. I love rainbows. So when I started to see a ton of ideas on how to use paint chips, I was sold! Now that I have a ton, what to do with them? I'm going to stew over it a bit.

Paint chips really weigh a lot more than you would think! My shoulder was aching after carrying them around in my purse. And it felt weird grabbing all these cause it kind of felt like I was stealing them. But the employees saw me grabbing them and no one said a word, one even smiled at me. So I figured its ok to go raid your paint department. :)

I tend to get knots in my necklace chains, and it always drives me crazy. After I got a knot in the necklace my hubby got me for my birthday. (shout to the hubs for the most gorgeous necklace I've ever own!)

Because I can't resist, here is the necklace!

 

ok, back to the original topic. :) After I got a knot in this beautiful necklace and after we asked a jeweler to carefully remove the knot, I decided it was time to find a better way to store my necklaces. And I came up with this.

I used a frame, but removed the backing and the glass. And I use a cork board without a frame, ribbon, cute fabric, and push pins. Add it all together, and you get this. Now I have a cute way to store my necklaces and it looks like art. I plan on making another one with coordinating fabric, just in case my hubs decide to get me another necklace or two in the future. ;-)
