OFFICE GARLAND DIY :: I DESIGN WITH TWINE

I design with Twine.  You know that cute bright twisted string used on anything from baked goods, to cards, wrapping, craft projects....? I am a big fan and I'm lucky to be part of the The Twinery's design team. This is my monthly contribution. Check out all the details, and other talented design ladies on the Twinery blog.

My magnetic 'job' board in my office was just a plain white, very task orientated place of orders, ideas and things to follow up on (or things that haven't yet been filed!) Pretty much paper stuck to bulldog clips. So, today I've got a little something to make your office or work space a little brighter with the help of some bright twine! 

The full tutorial is over on the Twinery Blog today. You can download the free printable in my freebies section of my website. It helps bring a little bit of sunshine even when doing paperwork!
Happy Garland making!
