Pretty Organized: Millinery Flowers

If you've ever taken a close look at my blog banner, then you probably noticed those little flowers in the pretty blue glasses.  Those flowers are actually vintage millinery bouquets - forget-me-nots, to be more specific. They are one of my most prized collections and, sadly, I have often kept them packed away. Such a pity, too, because they are so beautiful and I just love looking at them. Recently, I was shopping at HomeGoods and I spotted this fantastic cubby shelf. I instantly knew it would be perfect for showcasing my collection...

Now I can see and enjoy my sweet forget-me-nots.

And keep them organized at the same time!

These cubby shelves are really great for storing any of your smaller crafting supplies. I come across vintage ones sometimes when I'm out antiquing and I know I've seen similar ones at places like Pottery Barn.

Happy organizing!

It's nice to see that you're not a hoarder of flowers either! ; )
I don't hoard craft supplies like rubber stamps either! Just don't come over here & try counting them all!
I hope you show us some of your gourmet candy collection!
Such pretty pictures of the candy & the aqua paint at the resort!

I love your posies and your idea for storing/displaying them.

I just bought a similar box at Big Lots (in an ugly color) and am thinking of what I might display in it.

That's such a creative way to use your container storage! In Minnesota, I've never seen anyone use it as decoration before. So awesome!
