Frames and Bookmarks

I neglected to post a couple of other gifts I have made a while ago. Below is another picture frame for a baby gift. This one was for a "future Vol" if you couldn't tell from all of the orange and white!

These are some little bookmarks I made with ribbon and paperclips. A little more difficult than they looked in the pictures in Pinterest, but still turned out cute.

 

Christmas Frames

One of my winter crafts involved putting together some holiday picture frames. The theme was 1950s and pink, so this is what I came up with.

New Picture Frame

I feel like it's been forever since I have actually been crafty. However, I have had some projects here and there and am finally getting around to posting again. 

Recently, a co-worker and friend moved back to Nebraska. In honor of her time at UT and the University of Nebraska, I made this frame for her. 

I think it turned out pretty cute and hope she can look at us and fondly remember her time at UT (or be glad she's gone). Either way!

I have more frames in the works so I will have more to post soon!

New Office! (kinda)

I have been lucky enough lately to not only get a promotion but to have some construction done to my office to make it a little more use friendly. I was motivated to make some new things to spruce it up a little too.

Frames/Prints
I was inspired by a blog I saw that had a cute frame and a PDF you could print of a quote. It seemed like an easy enough DIY project.

I bought some frames at Goodwill (I forgot to take a complete before picture!) The frames were all different, some were wood, metal, gold, etc. I used black spray paint to make sure they all had that in common but really liked the different textures and sizes.

 
I then created the prints in Photoshop with fun background patterns and quotes that were career related (without being too cheesy!)

Desk Organizer:
I also bought a plain wooden desk organizer that I painted white and lime green:

 

The final results of the pictures will be posted soon!
