Birdie to add some charm


Coffee table ideas

I had a wooden un-used tray and one adorable birdie that I bought from V Sattui winery at napa. Few candles to give it a vintage charm and a vase full of potpourri. 

Also, a small ceramic bowl to keep some succulent, just to add the green touch :) I call them my small plants.

It's not just a brown bag...



Well, the other day I saw my OCD self coming up again :-) As I was cleaning my storage I found so many brown bags in various sizes. Instead of recycling, I thought of up scaling them. It's a fun project and all you need is
- Brown bags, tiny, small, medium. Any size, any shape.(OPPS! they just come in rectangular)
- Glue, I just used the Krazy glue.
- Stapler & Pins
- Those pretty laces, those that have been torn out from your favorite old skirt or you may even use new ones :)
- Any buttons, ribbons glitters to pretty them up.
