Welcome to Metamorphosis Monday, hosted by sweet Susan over at
Between Naps on the Porch~
Okay, so this may be a "been there, done that" kinda thing for some of you, but I thought maybe there were a couple of folks who could use this idea, so here goes!!
I needed some magazine organizers for my Mary Englebriet Home Companion collection. That great magazine is now defunct :-(
Anyhoo, I bought these Rubbermaid heavy-duty holders at Wal-Mart and decided to doll them up a bit.
Grabbed some scrapbook paper and a stamp, measured and cut the paper.....
...schmeared glue on the whole thing and pasted it on....
Here's the BEFORE and AFTER.
....holding the magazines...
...and how it looks on my craft shelf! Voila!

Great idea to decorate the "bindings" of the magazine holders.
ReplyDeleteI keep my mag holders in the basement because they're so unattractive. I just might use your idea and do something with mine!
That is clever! I should do the same thing! How nice it turned out!
ReplyDeleteThey look so much more interesting and what a great way to add some character to a bookshelf. Love it. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteSo creative...great idea!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea ! I didn't know you could get magazine holders so wide..I have a bunch I would like to fix up to ! Thanks for sharing a fab idea !

Great idea, they turned out really nice. I don't save a lot of magazines but could certainly use these for other things as well~Jacque
ReplyDeleteOk Myrna, can I steal this idea! Love it and I have alot of magazines I don't want to part with yet. When I do my craft room I want to do this with them.
ReplyDeletePerfect!!
You could use wallpaper too.
