i love to use the Ikea KVARNVIK
hat boxes for organizing and gift giving.
:: found here ::
while i was organizing some twine and lace a
couple weeks ago, a light came on!
i remembered two pretty crocheted pieces that were made by my
Grandmother, Hazel. ( i think that she made them to
cover some lidded baskets.) hmmm... i wonder...
would the pieces fit the Ikea hat boxes?...?
look! a PERFECT fit!
Grandmother's pretty handwork is now out of that old keepsake
box and crowning the new boxes!
so pretty...and put to practical use!
i wish you a wonderful weekend!
( i will be hauling out the Christmas boxes tomorrow! )
withLove!
Great idea! Your boxes are gorgeous- using my grandmother's things always make me happy.
ReplyDeleteYou make your grandmother proud. Now you can enjoy seeing her beautiful doilies all the time.xo, Susie
ReplyDeleteThat is a great idea, looks so pretty. I love when things work out like that... i'm sure your grandmother would be so happy. Wishing you a good day and hoping that mom is feeling better...
ReplyDeleteCiao for now
How pretty! I was going to say all you needed was a bow for them and then you showed them with the crocheted pieces! Just beautiful!
