Wedding Binder

Right after I got engaged my best friend gave me an awesome binder to organize all of the ideas that I had for the wedding.  Since then, every friend of mine who has gotten engaged has asked for a binder.  They are really simple to make. If you are in to scrap booking you could make this really fancy. I used scrapbook paper and a printer.



Materials:
2 inch white binder with clear cover
Tabs
page protectors
scrapbook paper
color paper
Printer or Circut




1. Decide what sections you want to include in the binder. I included the following: church, reception, attire, registry, honeymoon, music/photographer, flowers, guests and miscellaneous.

2. Cut your scrapbook paper to fit in the cover of the binder and then cut pieces to fit in the page protectors.

3. Using a printer or Circut, create title pages for the cover and each section.

4. Assemble the sections by placing the pages in the protectors and then put a tab on each section.

Homemade Scarf Hanger


Are you ready for Fall? I am ready for the weather to change. I am also ready for jeans, sweatshirts, apple cider, pumpkins, weekend football games, and wearing scarves. I absolutely love scarves. Scarves are the one thing that I always had trouble trying to find inside my closet. They are hard to organize if you don't have the right system in place. For a while, my scarf pile was in the need for some serious organization.


This is what my scarf mess looked like before:
Just a basket full of scarves.. where is the one that I wanted to wear today? Somewhere in this mess. 


In order to declutter and try and make space and sense of my closet, I decided to make a scarf hanger using a hanger or two, depending on the amount of scarves, shower curtain hooks, and some hot glue or super glue. We happened to buy some extra shower curtain hooks when we moved here so I already had them on hand. 


Hot glue or super glue the shower curtain rings into place. Then, put some scarves on there and you end up with this!



Much better organization! How do you organize your scarves?
