(and lamps, and pillows, and, well, furniture, and…).
I’ve always loved enameled numbers too.
(Etsy). I found these enameled numbers on Etsy a couple of years ago. Unfortunately the gal I bought them from closed her shop down.
Using some wire I decided to embellish my baskets with them.
They are my hiding place for little boys toys.
15 minutes and a bit of threading resulted in…
Hey there! I’m Michelle; I’m an Passionate DIY’er and in constant pursuit of how to bring beauty to my house full of men (3 boys + 1 hubby). Stick around and see what I’ve got up my hard-working sleaves!
So great! And kind of a neat way to teach your boys their numbers….”Go put Iron Man away in #41″
What a great look…great idea! Adds a nice little visual touch and function! I love seeing this view and that yellow vase, knowing what is on the other side? 🙂 Janell
What a neat idea & that yellow compote is fabulous. Is that the one that was broken?
Looks fab! Vintage hardware can be a complete addiction to me! Changes any piece!
great way to put your numbers to use 🙂 i’ve been on the hunt for some enamel numbers for our lockers…..

What a great idea! I started to collect theh numbers 1-9 a couple of years ago and I only have #3:) What a great collection! I love how you displayed the frames above the TV!

I love those baskets. It make things look so cozy and organized. The pillow in the basket looks really good think I might try out that one.
That’s such a cute idea! You should put the bigger, more antique hardware on your bigger baskets! I love it!

I love those little touches that add such visual impact!!!
I am looking for frames just like the ones you have displayed. Where did you get them?

Thanks!
Love how the baskets conceal so much stuff and the vintage hardware looks great.
I just saw those exact numbered tags at an adorable shop in Chicago. Here’s the link:http://www.poshchicago.com/.
I couldn’t come up with a use for them, so I left without them. Love your idea!
That’s an interesting idea o add numbers to all your boxes around the house so for example if someone ask where he can get some scissors, you just tell him to look in box number 49 🙂
