Make Things Pretty: Giveaway!

These last few weeks, and the next few weeks have and will be filled with TONS of organization... and most people that know me, know that I despise "order"... I usually refer to my things being in an "organized mess"... because usually I... and only I... know where things are (especially in my sewing room). But, with a baby on the way, and with an extremely open floor plan in this house, I've decided to take a different approach to organizing. I want Charlotte or the hubs or anyone visiting to be able to find something for me, especially if I'm a little preoccupied with the tiny bundle...

So my creativity is stretched a bit to come up with a way or organizing, that is so "me", not too polished looking, and yet easily accessible to others... but, who says it can't be fun? right? One thing I've been desperate to help organize, is my craft stuff... and eventually I'll give you a nice little tour of my studio/sewing room... in the meantime, you'll have to be okay with a fun way to display decorative tape... especially if you LOVE tape as much as I do.

Unique vessels and mason jars run PLENTIFUL in my house... if they don't in your house, no fear... most thrift stores have GREAT finds, or even estate sales... This little fruit crate was from our trip to a farmer's market in Italy (yes, another world adventure find), that I just couldn't part with... It was actually from our time in Italy spent (a few days) before heading to Ukraine to adopt Charlotte. You can actually see it in pictures on this post... and just holds some little reminders... of life before kids (for those with kids, you know what I'm talking about). The mason jars fit perfectly in it, so I separated all my tape by color and size, and then got to work. You still have to "dig" a little if you want a specific tape, BUT, at least I know where to find it all. It's all in one place, accessible, and uniquely displayed. Perfect for me...

And because I LOVE washi tape/decorative tape SO much, and think everyone needs it in their life... (and if you already have it, well you just need more of it) I'm giving away a few rolls of some fun tape that I found at Target, as well as other lovely goodies to help create a super fun package look for someone to open up, or perhaps to just collect in your stash for the right use.

To win 5 rolls of tape, some crocheted lace from Korea, purple bakers twine, smokey blue twill tape, and a bunch of fun tags/labels... here's what you gotta do (super simple):
