More Fridgies! (Notepad Baskets)--Added another pic post 14

[Mom w/a Motif]

Oh my goodness, I love these little fridgies! I made three so far. I think I am going to make LOTS more.

 

The tan one w/ the apple is for my kitchen. I only have two roses left and went to WalMart, they didn't have any. So I got to thinking about other stuff I could use and "Oh, yeah.... what about those little wooden apples, ladybugs and bees I bought...." I need to go to JoAnns and get some more cute ribbon and wooden things (and more roses) to make more of these.

 

 

The green one I am thinking about sending to my Grandmother-in-Law. She used to keep the little colored coupons from the Val-Pak things you get in the mail to write messages on, etc.... So I immediately thought of her for these. (Now the Val-Pak coupons are all shiny and have writing on both sides, but...) I got a cube of tiny post-it notes, and pulled apart all the different colors to stick in each one. I am going to be sending these for gifts/RAOKs, too. They're so much fun!

 

Woops! Sorry, I forgot to add the link for the pattern (duh moment!): Notepad Basket Fridgies Have Fun! (I have been chaining 18-not 30!!, and adding an extra row of the 2dc in flo, 2dc in blo, to make it a little bit bigger, since when I tried to put a 2x2 post-it cube in there, it barely fit. HTH!)

I just realized I said I was chaining 30 :0 I meant 18. (You will have 30 dc is what I must have been thinking...) Hope no one started one by chaining 30. LOL

Here is a picture of the ones I have made by chaining 18 instead of 13. They come out 3 1/4" wide by 3" tall (excluding the handle thingy). A little bit better size for notepaper. (Maybe.) I put one of the original ones I made next to them, so you can see the difference.

 

 

Thanks everyone.
