As promised, photos of DIY projects completed over the weekend!
In a previous post I talked about the cool drawer organiser that I was going to try my hand at. Originally it was going to be an organiser for ribbon spools (as the inspiration was), but I have 3 drawers to work with and I decided the first was going to be a rack / organiser for all my Madly Deeply Jewellery (now re-branded as JUNO, read about it here), which can now also double as a pretty earring stand when I eventually get a stall at the Kingston & Handmade markets.
This is how it turned out:
3 drawer bedside table I picked up from Aussie Junk in Mitchell for $10 (top drawer is the one I used)
Before shot, kinda ugly
Painted white, papered on the side, hooks made from an old wire coat hanger, handle painted, and everything mod podged!
Pretty earrings on hooks
My new set up on the shelf in my study, much more organised than before!
You can find the whole set of images from start to finish in my DIY Drawer Organiser Flickr Set.
I also made a bunch of cute button magnets from some bright buttons I found at Lincraft in Civic (I thought there would be more cool buttons there, the range seems a bit limited…?) to sell at the markets also, but I’m going to keep a set for myself because I really like them =)
Button Magnets
Cute!
Other than that, the majority of my weekend was taken up coding a static html site for Just Details into a wordpress theme. I’m pretty excited about launching the site now! It’s going to go live before December =D

[...] some stuff, then we went and had a look in Aussie Junk (where I got the bedside table to make the DIY jewellery drawer organiser), and then the salvos in Mitchell. I got a whole bunch of stuff for super cheap, to display all my [...]
Awesome, I might borrow this idea for organising my own jewellery. It’s a fracking mess right now and this looks cute.
Can’t wait to pop in and see you at the markets

Now you can put a shelf on the top drawer runs and have a unique little ribbon workshop.

I love the draw organiser , what a brilliant idea. I just bought a wine rack from a charity shop to hang my bracelets on when I take them to fares to sell.It’s waves of metal rather than circles which should work OK.
