There was a bit of a struggle looking around for an answer to the challenge. Running about the house, peering into cabinets and drawers, it did dawn on me that they need to be tidied but a concept wasn't forthcoming. Then in the studio, I noticed my paint which is stored in ball jars and thought canning. Whew! Of course not many folks store their paint in jars so a bit might have been lost in translation, but still, I did it!
And thank you Vicki for your kind comment on your blog!

Suzanne that's great! I think it is beautiful and a perfect solution to the challenge. Fun!
ReplyDeleteI love your comment about looking through cabinets and noticing that things needed straightening up. Boy that was my first thought when Robin came up with our September Challenge subject of pantry shelves! I thought, "whoa.. which cabinet or pantry shelf would I willingly show to strangers out in cyberspace?!"
