TIM: Things I've Made {admit one}

I got together with gal pal Blaynie one night and we made these darling ticket displays.
I thought I was the only one that kept EVERY.single.ONE of my ticket stubs from seemingly 
insignificant places (mostly movies), but she does too! YAY for not being alone in weirdness! :)


It's SO easy to make:

You'll need:
A hollow display frame (we got ours at Hobby Lobby)
Decorative paper, ribbons, washi tape, etc
Paint
Tickets

Paint frame. While paint is drying, decorate the back panel. I liked the shiny gold and copper paper and I thought it gave texture to use the burlap. Toss tickets inside and close it up. 

That's it. So easy right!?

You can totally to it!

TIM: Things I've Made {Easy Way to Display Pictures}

I love pictures. I love being behind the camera, squaring up a sight, and capturing it forever.

I also love displaying pictures, but I always have so many, it's hard to know where to put them.

I have a big 3 window space in my tiny room, so I thought it would be fun to fill it up with pictures.

I love the square look of instagram photos, so I made all of mine 3" x 3". After you've got your pictures printed here's what you do:


1. cover the fronts of clothespins with washi tape. you can use all the same color,
but I like the colorful rainbow it makes with tons of different designs.

2. hang a long piece of string, twine, rope...whatever you have.

3. make it a bit tighter than you think it should be, because 
the pictures and clothespins weigh it down quite a bit.

4. hang your pictures

That's it! So easy! And so easy to replace and rearrange photos when you need a change. 
Which, if you're like me is every other week! ;)

TIM: Things I've Made: Colorful Washi Keyboard

My keyboard was SO boring and I'm always looking for Washi Tape crafts, so when I saw this idea on Pinterest--I had to #doitmyself.

Mine is just a random pattern, but you could for sure make it aabbccaabbcc or all the same color or all the same washi if you wanted--just be creative! :)
