My super fab sister-in-law, Anne, called me a couple months ago and filled me in on her latest creation. I have been meaning to post it  for all to enjoy and be inspired by (a picture will follow shortly). Anne found an old cabinet, looks like about three feet tall. It was missing the doors. Her girls love to dress-up and have costumes galore. So she painted the cabinet, put a hanging rod in the middle and viola - an instant closet for dress-up clothes for her kids! A pink and purple costume closet for under $30! Way to go, Anne.
I am so thankful to be a part of a resourceful family. We have a good time bouncing ideas off each other when we can.  Anne and my good friend and family member, Leah, always inspire me. They are always working on some new projects and are so creative.
When she's not chasing two kids around, Leah has recently taken to making skirt aprons out of old men's button-up shirts. She sent us some for Christmas and they are way cool. What a simple way to repurpose discarded shirts. And when you hunt through the thrift stores, there are so many patterned shirts to choose from, you never know what great color and pattern you might encounter. You can find some of these aprons, along with other cute things she's made on her Etsy site: www.harpersmarket.etsy.com.
She and Anne will be selling their goodies at an arts and crafts fair in Memphis in March. I'll post the specific information as soon as I have it. If you are in the area, go check them out!
Enjoy!
