I <3 repurposing!!! I am working on making a large homemade clip it up but unfortunantly I am waiting on parts so in the meantime I made this smaller version also using an old lamp I didnt use anymore. I also used a wire lamp ring, some paperclips, a glass drawer knob for decoration and some alligator clips. The lamp had a plastic ring that came off and was threaded to hold the lampshade which made it super easy to hold the new lamp ring. I unscrewed the ring, replaced the old shade with the new wire lamp ring and threaded the ring again. I then painted the lamp and lamp ring then glued the knob into the socket where the light bulb normally would be and voila! I attached the alligator clips to the paper clips, put them on the ring and hung up my goodies! Yay organizing!! One step closer to my New Years Resolution!
Great idea... :)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea Kim! I'm going to have to haunt the Salvation Army stores and try to find a lamp.

This is such a fabulous idea! It would keep those stamps out in front of my face and free up some drawer space...thanks for the inspiration!!
ReplyDeleteI found almost the identical clips that Clip it up uses in JoAnne's Fabric Store. But it looks like your alligator clips are working, too. Thanks for a great idea!
