D.I.Y. Repurposed Catalog Hanging Flower Decorations

I first spotted these awesome Repurposed Catalog Hanging Flowers over on Garden Party blog and just had to share them with you all.  They were created by the blogger behind Zakka Life, and I think they are just genius!  Just think of how gorgeous your old J.Crew catalogs would look given new life as these festive decorations! For directions, visit Zakka Life. Thanks Garden Party for finding it first!

Stay tuned for a fun giveaway and contest coming up in just a bit, AND a fabulous d.i.y. project I'll be doing later today as part of my birthday celebration with my family!  See you then.

Oh my gosh! You just made my day! I have boxes of magazines that need a project. =) I'm probably the only person alive who will make the movers pack my boxes of magazines during a move. But I just can't part with them. I figure they'll be needed someday. (That qualifies me to be on Oprah or something, doesn't it?)

Shanon you are in good company. We can go on Oprah together! ; )I've moved my magazines with me for every move I've had since I was about 18.I'm gonna give this project a try too. It looks like catalogs might work better than magazines, but if it's a skinny mag then it might do just fine. Let me know how it turns out!xoxEz

Book jackets...most (many) libraries remove the book jackets as the first step in processing books. The covers are amazing. Anyone care for a few hundred? I'm not crafty enough to do anything with them but can't stand to see them tossed..... (I'm a pack rat and now the whole world will know *sigh*).

I would love some book jackets! I am doing a literary themed Christmas tree in my library/office this year. That could be fun!
