A few weeks ago I made an organizer for my daughter’s desk, you remember this lovely.

Πριν από λίγες εβδομάδες έκανα ένα διοργανωτή για το γραφείο της κόρης μου.  Θυμάστε αυτό το όμορφο;

Well, that pink container was really bugging me.  You know how  you can get the silliest thing in your mind and it won’t let you rest until you correct it. That’s what happened with me. It  just would not do – the pink had to go! 

Λοιπόν, αυτό ροζ δοχείο ήταν πραγματικά ενοχλητικό. Ξέρετε πώς μπορείτε να  βάλετε το πιο ηλίθιο πράγμα στο μυαλό σας και δεν θα σας αφήσει να ξεκουραστεί μέχρι να το διορθώσετε. Αυτό συνέβη με μένα. Απλώς δεν γινόταν - το ροζ έπρεπε να φύγει !

Enter these guys.  They are shorter than the originals.

Let’s dress them up with matching contact  paper.

Ας τους ντύσουμε με αυτοκόλλητο χαρτί που ταιριάζει.

Don’t they look just gorgeous???  There is enough color in there with the markers, the black and white is perfect!

Δεν φαίνονται απλά υπέροχα ??? Υπάρχει αρκετό χρώμα εκεί με τους μαρκαδόρους, το μαυρόασπρο τέλειο!

And so I can sleep easily once again, knowing that I have banished the pink container from the room!  It’s the little tweaks that make me happy!  But what about that lamp shade with all those colors.  It  looks like it is having an identity crisis!  Back to work!!

Και έτσι μπορώ να κοιμηθώ ήσυχα για άλλη μια φορά, γνωρίζοντας ότι έχω εξορίσει το ροζ δοχείο από το δωμάτιο! Είναι αυτά τα μικρά πράγματα  που μου δίνουν χαρά!  Αλλά τι γίνεται με αυτό το πορτατίφ με όλα αυτά τα χρώματα. Μοιάζει να έχει μια κρίση ταυτότητας! Πίσω στη δουλειά!!

    1. Thanks Jane for visiting. Yes, this little pink container was bothering me to no end! I will see you at the wonderful link party as I have been for the past month now!

  1. I couldn’t live with that pink container, either! It might function as-is, but I like everything to match 🙂
    Very cute idea!

    1. Jenny I’m not normally so crazy, but there were too many colors in the room already and it was making me dizzy…lol

  2. That is a cute idea and I love that you used contact paper. A great way to coordinate a dorm room too for all those heading away to school.

    1. Elizabeth, this could easy fit in a dorm room. Trying to coordinate as much as possible, I even painted the lamp white to match. Thanks for visiting.

  3. What a smart idea to cover those with contact paper! They look grat!
    Thank you so much for sharing this at Something to Talk About!
    Karen

  4. Hi Mary!
    I am the same way with those silly little things. 🙂 It’s kind of annoying sometimes, but I admit things always look better after I take care of them! Thanks for partying with us at Talented Tuesday!
    Cheers,
    AJ

  5. I adore this idea. Beautiful! What I like most, the fact I can create matching desk organizational sets, and matching book covers in our study.

    1. Yes Ivory the possibilities are endless! Just use your favorite contact paper and match it with some fabric if you want.

  6. It’s amazing how handy cans can be (great re-purpose) & how much better they look covered!
    Would love to have you join us at our first ever Reader Tip Tuesday: http://www.jodiefitz.com/2017/08/01/reader-tip-tuesday-along-new-food-craft-party/
    I know it’s wednesday, but we’re keeping it WIDE open this week & continuing the invites for our first couple of weeks to keep everyone’s posts getting more peeks. Have a great week & hope to see you there. Have a GREAT week

    1. Jodie I just popped over.. Good luck with your party and I will try and join up every week as long as I have appropriate content.

  7. The organizer looks very nice! I like the black & white pattern with the solid blue on the box. Just in time for back-to-school and all those wonderful homework assignments!

    1. Exactly Carol. My daughters have desks full of useless stuff but at least they are organized!

  8. I agree that new all matching containers looks nicer. So funny how one little pink container bugs you, but I truly understand. You like what you like.
    Great little makeover.

    1. I’ve become a pain in the butt is what I am Leanna. I used to be worse but then kids came along and messed up my perfectly color coordinated life. 😉

  9. Yup, looks much better with the pink one gone. Love the b&w contact paper is perfect! Thanks for sharing with SYC.
    hugs,
    Jann

    1. I can get rather silly with these things sometimes Jean. Before kids I was even worse but now I’ve learned to let a lot of things slide.

    1. Thanks Karie, its a great way to use up all those old cans that normally we would throw out and then go buy more stuff.
