An Elephant Never Forgets


Getting organized has always been a difficult thing for me. I struggle with even remembering to be organized! I created this little frame to as a constant visual reminder to get organized!

I'm so excited to have been invited to do a feature over at Gauche Alchemy! I won a few of their Mixed Media Kits from the very talented Yvonne's blog, and they are so much fun to sort through and come up with something creative.

So please hop on over to the Gauche Alchemy Blog for a bit more details and check out their Mixed Media Kits here!


Remember, an elephant never forgets!

    I don't even know if having the word framed in front of me would help with organization. That is one of my goals for 2011.

    Oh, I love this project, Karen! That elephant pin is SO cute. Maybe I should make one of these as a subtle reminder to my kids to put their toys away! LOL

    LOL - how perfect is that stick pin?!!! I'm afraid to use all those embellies, but you show that it can be done and still remain simple.
    BTW, I have a little something for you on my blog today :>)

    Great idea! I just cleaned my craft room today. I still had boxes full of stuff on the floor from when we moved a month ago. :)

    Very beautiful! I used to be very organized, then I had 4 kids and it all went out the door. We just don't have enough space for me to be organized, maybe when we move and I live in a bigger place.

    Anywho, TFS, I LOVE it!

    This is just too lovely!! I LOVE the word too!! Every since I got some IKEA storage units I've been organized :) It's soooo nice and hubby thought that it was very worth his time going through the IKEA craziness :P
