...she had a few questions for me. I figured if she had questions, others might also. Here is what she wondered:
Linds: Where did you take the pic?
Val: I took the pictures outside of my parent's shed. We actually call it the Taj MaShed because my Dad has spent month$ and month$ and month$ building it. I think it even has hard wood floors inside!
Linds: How did you suspend them?
Val: I used these little clips that I had in our basement that we have hanging from a thick wire to holds the kid's art work. Now, the sad part about this is, neither my husband nor I can remember where we got these clips. I think I probably got them at Lowe's, but I can't promise you that.
Since I couldn't remember where I got those little clippies, I thought I'd test out the black clips (pictured above) that you can buy at any office supply store. I tested it out and it does work just fine!!!
Linds: Did it take forever to set up!?
Val: It took me about 15-20 minutes and I was able to set it up without any help. It was really pretty easy!

Great technique! I don't know what those silver clips are called, but I scrapbook as well and they are used on the Clip It Up organization system. I will have to try it out on my next project!
ReplyDeleteThose are just lovely!

I got clips like that at IKEA. They come in black too.
ReplyDeleteI love that you translated my Qs into real english instead of the abbreviated, swear-word-filled commentary I usually provide. Congrats on your first bakeshop tutorial! - Linds

Very clever. I've been having problems with this. Alas, I have a $hed, too, but it's not as attractive as your dad's, so I don't think it will work as well. But fear not, DH is building ANOTHER one! I'll have to ask for a great looking door/wall to hang quilts from - LOL!
