Post-it Note Holders

Quite a busy weekend all ready but definitely very productive! Got some stuff done in the house (which included a trip to Lowe's to pick up 16 bags of mulch - yeah, that was fun), and did some crafting which included getting my order of 10 Post-it note holders out the door, woo hoo!

The request itself came from my my pink daisy holder. The customer wanted 8 holders to be the same or similar to this one, and then an additional 2 to be more masculine. I like to use cardstock when I'm creating these holders because the paper itself is a little more sturdy so I went with DCWV's "A Pocket Full of Posies" collection. It really accents the daisy embellishments, and some of the paper even has a little glitter and texture built in.

Here's the finished product.The hardest part was trying to figure out how to send 10 all at once - too big for bubble mailers, too small for some of the priority boxes. I ended up wrapping them all in tissue paper and adding a little cushion inside. :)




Thanks for stopping by!

That's ALOT of note holders!!! And they're all GREAT. It's so funny because I just picked up a couple of acrylic frames at the Dollar Store yesterday to make some of these things!! They're just so handy around the house! And it just so happens I also I some of the larger flowers laying around that I never use - ah, I see a CASE coming on......Thanks for the inspiration!
