When I got home I googled the "Clip-it-up". I was loving the product, but it was out of my budget. Then I stumbled across a video showing you how to make your own. I gathered the supplies and I created my own version. I used a paper towel holder, wire rings from an old lampshade, paper clips and minature clothes pins.
This worked so well that I made another one using s-hooks for my decorative edge scissors.
About a year later a friend of mine (thanks Helen) introduced me to dangler clips. I talked my brother into removing all those paper clips (tee hee he never knew what hit him). Then I replaced the paper clips with the dangler clips for a sturdier product. I like the results.
My homemade embellishment storage. It doesn't spin around, but I love it and the cost!
Fantastic! How did you fasten the lampshade to the papertowel holder? I had thought about making one of these but I have a rotating pegboard stand and with all the other pegboard I have I found I haven't needed one...yet! lol I have some pictures on my blog under the label "Oranization". Those dangler clips are great! It's fun to see your scrapping supplies! :o)
ReplyDeleteif you'd like it to rotate set it on a lazy susan. Wal-mart has them for the cheap. QP
