Yesterday, Husband and I set out to get a good long list of things done. Cleaning the bathrooms, changing the oil in my Jeep, vacuuming, and hanging the wire I bought from Ikea almost 2 weeks ago were on that list.
#Truth: Husband had to YouTube directions to hang it. Sometimes the vague Ikea directions just aren't enough!
Backstory: Behind the door to the garage (our main entry/exit point) is this little cut out area. I have grand plans for a bench, hooks, cubbies and more, but they have not come to fruition just yet. In the meantime, we have a nice table that has 2 drawers, a shelf and 2 baskets which is providing all the storage in the area for now. A few months ago we hung up a memento board to hang invitations, tickets, reminders, and Booger's artwork. The artwork has taken over and most papers were too big for the little board, so it was time for something new.
Browsing through Ikea the other week, I saw this tension wire clip photo holder and knew instantly that it would solve our problem (it says curtain wire, but they had it in the store holding pictures!). Being able to utilize the length of the wall would be much more helpful than the tiny board.
My ever so handy Husband took over the job of putter-upper. I did get to use the drill to put in one screw, though :-) Once up, I organized Boogers art, our zoo attraction tickets, and some pictures and voila! All done!
The clips slide on the wire, so nothing is stuck in place. It almost looks bare compared to the over cluttered memo board! Booger needs to get to work making some more projects!
