the closet and a quickie weekend project

It is hard impossible to photograph a small dark closet. But here's the fruit of yesterday's labors. I just want to keep the closet door open all the time and stare. When I began this project it was supposed to be shelves for kids craft stuff and my fabric. But they were relegated to a big basket beside their little table.

This weekend, I made these little cuffs for Emma and me. One of those spur of the moment crafts. They were easy and fun. To Emma's I added some grosgrain ribbon and then both are tied with a tiny loop of RicRac and a button. With mine, I was able to singe the ends with a match to keep it from fraying, but Emma's just burned. oops. I'll have to look for some of this for her cuff. It was a fun project. And I think they'd make great little birthday gifts for the little people in my life. I mean, if the cuffs are cool enough. I never really know anymore....!
