26. Weekend Comfort





As I work in professional environment all week, as weekend hits - I think COMFORT! Esp when its cold and rainy out! I wore this as it was raining on a saturday afternoon as my family had scheduled store visits to look at new furniture BECAUSE..... we are moving to a new house in like 2-3 weeks! Pain to move to be honest.

But I also did something this weekend to my closet as I started packing away more stuff. I am taking my trashy /unorganized closet and turning it into a DIVA Closet! What is DIVA closet - a closet that works for you, your needs and for those days when you hear this voice in your head "I have NOTHING to wear". Its work in progress, once its done - I will do a post and reveal some diva closet SECRETS!

If you sense some excitement, be sure to leave a comment/ suggestion on what is your best tip to organize a closet?

Tippy Tuesdays #2

Hello. It is Tuesday - means another tip from Navland! Yipee...... ok! Moving on.....haha

Ever find people give you cards (for birthdays, anniversaries, thank you cards, get well soon, Valentines day cards, christmas cards)  and they are just lying around or hidden in drawers? Well get them out and lets send outt hese bad boys to work! and decorate out room at the same time. You ask how?? Let me show you how I do it.

I had 35 cards in total. I am a very sentimental person so I couldnt even think of throwing them out and just from a faint memory, I had seen them hanging in a book shop like how I am about to show you.

You willl need the following:

  • 10 Same size cards (Big)



    • 10 smaller size cards (if you have any - if not, no problem)
    • Stapler
    • Paper pins - the ones shown below (4 of them)


    Lets start...

    Take the BIG cards - 8 of them and take bottom left of one card end of the card and staple it to the top right end of another card...keep doing this until you make a queue of them stapled together like in the following picture.


    For the smaller cards, I make a horizontal queue by stapling top right corner of one card with bottom left corner of another card, shown like below:



    And there you have it. Once all stapled, hang the long big cards queue (of about 8 cards) in a corner with one of those pins I should you above. I placed the horizontal short cards queue on one of the side walls.

    Let me show you what I mean.





    I have put them up in 2 corners of my room. It makes my room very personal and a good reminder that people adore you for your efforts or for who you are!

    Hope you all enjoy this tippy tuesdays episode! I  always love to read comments! Leave below if you enjoyed this post and will be using this idea! Let me know how you all organize your cards?

    Have a good rest of the week! Stay fab!
