Saturday Morning Craftiness

Have you ever just woken up wanting to create something? I do, a lot, but rarely have the time to make anything cute! This "pinspiration" came from Mamie Jane's who got the original idea from Pottery Barn. The item is a tablet holder for your kitchen. You know, so you can cook while using a recipe from Pinterest...I mean, who uses cookbooks anymore?! There are 5 items required to make this precious kitchen gem: a cutting board, child's block, Scrabble tile holder, wood glue, and paint. Simple, huh? It couldn't be easier and the possibilities are ENDLESS!

Here's Pottery Barn's version, for $34.50 aka NOT GONNA HAPPEN!

and here's my version:
Mine features a quote from Virgina Woolf, "One cannot think well, love well, sleep well if one has not dined well." The added quote makes the piece look like art when my iPad isn't on it. I used E-6000 , the best smelly glue around, to adhere the wooden wedge block and tile holder and acrylic paint and paint pen.

I'd love to know what you think!
