I'm trying to redo my scrapbook room and one of the projects i've done that was so easy to do was my storage for my washi tape/twine .
it was really easy to make and to this date has been the best way to store these items. all i did was purchase a wooden paper towel holder from walmart like this one:
unscrewed the little side post. 12 inch skewers from the grocery section. a drill and small drill bit. and some form of wood glue i used elmers
on the main wood post i marked 3 spots around the post evenly spaced. then about an inch down. did the same. but spaced in the center of previous marks. like this:
x x x
x x x
x x x
x x x
do this all the way down spacing between 1 inch - 1 1/2 between rows
then get your drill and drill holes at a downward angle. drill all yours marks. cut off the pointy end of the skewer leaving the rest the length you want, mine are 8 inches. put a dap of glue on the end and insert into the hole you drilled. Let dry. done!!
And just a reminder:
the ctmh New cricut cartridge artiste is now on sale!!!

This is FANTASTIC!! I've been trying to get your blog linked to the blogs I follow on my iPhone. I think I have it now, but I'm not sure.
ReplyDeleteThis project looks like something I can get my husband to create for me. Kudos to you for being a "Tool Belt Diva" and making this yourself :D Way to go!

I think I finally have you in my blogroll so I can take you with me on the road. Crazy programs....or rather I'm not a computer whiz and soon forget how to do things :-(
ReplyDeleteThis holder is FANTASTIC!! You Go Girl! I think it is awesome you made this yourself. I'm going to call you my "Tool Belt Diva" :D I think I'll have to have my husband do this for me. Power tools and me have a love hate relationship. They love to make me hate them ;-)
