kluless: Easy Peasy

Easy Peasy

I was just worn out on Sunday night. I know that is pathetic but two days just isn't enough when you're working hard, you know? Anyway, I need something easy-peasy and mindless to relax with. No thinking required. I pulled out some wallpaper that would go with the brown color and pulls these cardboard drawers already had. Since it matched I didn't bother covering around the edges - easy peasy! Since I already had the wallpaper out I pulled out a petite vintage suitcase that had been waiting patiently in the closet for far too long. Wa-La, two easy-peasy projects done! What do you do when you need some creative time but your thinker is worn out?

Gail said...: Of course you know I LOVE this project. I had to laugh because I think I bought the very same cardboard drawers at my thrift awhile back and covered mine in vintage wallpaper (what else!).
Love your paper, they turned out great!; November 19, 2013 at 8:37 PM
Annette said...: These turned out beautifully with the wallpaper. When I'm too tired to think, I can't do any sewing or any kind of needlework. That's when I make major mistakes. But I do use that time to browse through old magazines and publications to get inspired.; November 19, 2013 at 10:21 PM

Betsy@My Salvaged Treasures said...: What a pretty wallpaper pattern and a perfect way to use up what you already have. When I over think a project it always turns out to be a disaster....mindless is good!!; November 20, 2013 at 5:53 AM

My thinker gets worn out a lot however you seen to keep us all entertained with your treasure hunting finds and your easy peasy projects
I went back and looked through your studio from back in July Where Women Create and I say you sure have it organized and tucked away very neatly; November 23, 2013 at 2:03 PM
