3Birds Desk Set!







Good morning everyone! I thought I would share a project I made for my daughter's room with you today. Over the last couple weeks we have been redoing my daughter's bedroom and one of the new pieces of furniture we purchased was a new desk. After looking everywhere, including online, we could not find a girl themed desk set. That's when I came up with the idea to just make her one, and what better products to use then 3Birds! I was able to customize it to perfectly match the colors and fun look of her new room & she just loves it!

I simply used cardboard as the base for the desk mat & covered it in 3Birds paper from the Focus on Photos stack and added some thick offray ribbon to the ends. I only glued down the top and bottom of the ribbon so that she can stick papers under the ribbons.

For the desk box I actually used the box that the new 3Birds 3D embellishments are packaged in (coming to HSN July 19th!). It was perfect! I just covered the words on top with a piece of self adhesive patterned paper from the Straight from the Nest paper pack and then added the beautiful 3D embellishment stickers-the bird on the branch & the flower. And then I used the Stickly Sparkly letters and added her initials. How cute is this!

For the pencil container I used an old snack can and covered it in the same Focus on Photos paper and added the offray ribbon, a flower from the Perfectly Pretty Petals from 3Birds, a butterfly sticker from the new 3D embellishments, and a rhinestone from the Bling Goodie Box.

For all three pieces it only took me about 45 minutes & we both love the end result!
