This is my version of the, ever so popular, Clip It Up. I made it with a wooden paper towel holder for the base and a lamp shade hoop for the hooks to hang from. The clips are available at Michaels. I covered the base and rod with patterned paper and painted the top nob. It is much prettier in my room that the store-bought version. Thanks for checking it out.
Hope you all had a happy and safe holiday! XO, M

Wow! talk about creativity. This is absolutely beautiful. You should seriously think about selling these. I would absolutely LOVE to have a pink and white one to match room...if you ever do decide, let me know! You are very creative!-Samantha
ReplyDeleteWell! Aren't YOU the clever one! I'm glad you finally figured this out because I know you were in a hurry to put this together.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year my friend! One of these days we'll get together so I can finish my towelies! :) miss you! xoxox
N-O W-A-A-A-Y!! How cool is that!? I'm gonna have to try it myself. I love the idea of the Clip It Ups, but just can't justify the expense. Very neat - and thanks for enabling...uh, I mean, sharing with the rest of us! :)
ReplyDeleteWOW!!! You are one smart chickadee! This is SO COOL - I've been wanting one of those things but haven't wanted to spend the $$$ on it - this is sooo clever! I wonder if I could make one myself? Hmmmm.... Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteBeyond fantastic and thanks so much for sharing it. I'm off to Michael's tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteYou da bomb girl - I feel another project coming on!!!! Way cool!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the idea and your entire blog site. I am a new consultant starting over again with SU. I have a blog http://stamperscafe.com and love your watermark. Did you design it and how? I will need to know so that I can make one as well. Any advice is great appreciated and needed I live far from my upline. Thanks so much ~ Christine in Michigan
ReplyDeleteI just went to my local Michael's....I couldn't find these clips! I'm really disappointed, as I had hoped to make one, and if it turned out, make another for a friend. Do you recall what these clips were called, and what section you found them in at Michaels? Any help you could give me in tracking these down would be greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Carmen

If you should choose to divulge your secrets, of course! ;-)
Well aren't you smart!!! I have the real version, but I can see a smaller version sitting on my desk for all the little goodies!
ReplyDeleteMimi, I am new to your blog but am wonder if I may post your pics of your clip it up on mine as it is such a great money saving idea!
ReplyDeleteGreat inspiration!
Emily I have searched all over to find the correct materials. I can't seem to find the lamp part of it. Can you tell me if you actually bought a lamp shade and disassembled it, or what, I really want to make one of these over the weekend. Thanks
ReplyDeleteAwesome Idea. Thanks for sharing. You are so clever.. I have clips from Ikea that have needed a home for some time now. We might need a trip to Wallies to get a paper towl holder..

I had a hearty laugh when I saw your model! I have not seen one in my area, but have heard that they cost about 40 dollars or more! You get my vote for most creative and I am SO going to make one! You rock!
ReplyDeleteThat's pretty darn friggin creative!
ReplyDelete2 Thumbs up!
That is so smart. I may have to dust off my much neglected crafting skills...ok, non-existent crafting skills! Lol.
