Shabby Organization

I am constantly looking for new ways to use vintage items to organize with panache. Here is a silver tray I picked up at the thrift store (minus one handle). With some delicious pink paint and a wave of the shabby wand, it is now my message center in my kitchen. The lemon dish (or any trinket dish) makes an awesome post-it holder. The sweet milk glass hen corrals the box tops (how about paper clips?) for my kids' elementary school. Lastly, a sweet Lefton vase has a new life as a pen and pencil cup. A neat vintage tag would like nice tied to the handle too! That's my new re-do for today.

Later Sugah,
