You guys, I am not sure what happened but I am NECKTIE CRAZY lately! I think it happened when I revamped my studio space and discovered a huge stash of vintage neckties that I’d forgotten about, but I can’t stop thinking about neckties! Here are a couple of the necktie crafts I’ve been working on, along with a few that I might try out if I have any ties leftover after this crazy obsession of mine calms down a bit.

necktie crafts

  1. A quickie scissor holder from a necktie by yours truly at Green Upgrader
  2. A necktie headband from PiperKins
  3. Very cute necktie scarf on CraftStylish
  4. Super adorable necktie flowers on Craftster
  5. My tutorial for an applique necktie on Crafting a Green World

Do you have any more ideas for my overflowing necktie stash? I’d love to hear about any necktie crafts you have in the works!

Do you guys have a junk drawer? We’ve got a couple of them in our house, and I think a solution like this would go a long way in keeping things more organized. Rather than just tossing things into the drawer, you’d have to shamefully write what you added on the front with chalk.

Do you guys have a junk drawer? We’ve got a couple of them in our house, and I think a solution like this would go a long way in keeping things more organized. Rather than just tossing things into the drawer, you’d have to shamefully write what you added on the front with chalk.

It would also be a cool way to breathe new life into a piece that’s got scratches on it or is a hideous color.

Ever since I made that chalkboard sign from an ugly painting Dave and I have been talking about doing chalkboard paint on a wall in the kitchen and possibly on the kitchen cabinet doors, too. Wouldn’t it be awesome to not have to hunt for ingredients but still have the tidiness of hidden storage?

Have you guys played with chalkboard paint before? I’d love to hear what cool, creative things you’ve done with it!
