Decorated Drink Holder & Linky Party # 7

My Linky party is a little delayed this week.  We spent my 41st Birthday yesterday with my parents in Arkansas and we have been busy!  So here is my late party!

What is this?  It's a cardboard drink holder.  This one in particular was from a 6 pack of beer but you can get different shapes and sizes.  Coffee shops have cool ones too.

I loved this project and it is so simple and you are recycling.  Just pick your coordinating papers and embellishments and a ruler.  Measure each side and cover it with paper.

What can it be used for?
~Pen holder
~Vase for Flowers (put cups or vases in each holder area
~To hold a present
~Kids crayons and markers (use plastic disposable cups)
~Picnics and Parties to hold silverware and napkins
~Craft rooms (scissors, pens, glue)
~Hair accessories (use plastic disposable cups)
~Kids gardens (place little pots in each holder area)

My Creative Corner

With four children in our house, we don't have a lot of extra space.  I needed to have a space of my own to spread out and be creative.  Our living room downstairs is a very long space with a large closet on one end.  We divided the space up into a TV space and then my creative corner.  So, with the help of Scott and my oldest son, I got it all set up (since I can't lift anything yet after surgery).  I organized all my crafts and scrapbook supplies so they are color coordinated and grouped in categories.  It took me a few days, but I finally finished and here is what it turned out like...

 

My Ribbons are stored in glass jars according to colors and my scrapbook paper is sorted into solids and prints by color and a section for holiday papers, specialty papers (sports, school, travel, etc.).  The drawers on the far left have special occasions such as wedding, baby, birthday and a drawer for beach/Disney.

Each drawer was sorted into colors.  I put two colors in each drawer and used a divider to keep the colors separate.  Brads, buttons, small stickers and other accessories are all housed in these drawers.  I also have a drawer for holidays, Winter and Vintage items.
