Scarves just hanging out.

Musing...just musing.  I own lots and lots of filmy, silky little scarves, and they never seem to be in one place.  Also, I love grommets.  Also, a shower curtain costs a buck at the dollar store.  Also, binder rings exist.

Result of my musing:





Yay!  A solution to my scarfapalooza!  If you want to know how I did it, check this out:





That charming strip with silver grommets is what you get by ripping the top off a shower curtain.  Don't even bother with scissors - just grab the end and start peeling, it zips right off!


Now find some big binder rings:





And do this:




Then this -





That's it!  For even more scarf storage, double up on the rings -






Practical and pretty!


Here's an alternative look, tres chic...









You can find a belt with grommets in pretty much any thrift store.  But if you can't, you could always take a plain leather belt and punch some holes in it.

Then just let your scarves hang out!




Whoa.  Michelle made something practical?  How bizarre is that?
