Quick and cheap Luggage tags

I am ready for our trip and I am crafty till the last minute!!
I decided to make some quick, easy and cheap luggage tags...

Once I bought instant self-laminating name tags (in a dollar store) and I thought they would be perfect to make some luggage tags;
I wanted them pretty simple! so I printed my name address and my destination for the back of the tag and simply laminated them in this transparent self laminating card.
Then I punch a hole and added an eyelet to make it sturdy and safe.
I always keep little strings and wire...this one came from a pair of shoes!!
I love to recycle and re-use!

I also found great other printable and ideas to make yourself some fantastic luggage tags, check them out!:

and you can also make luggage tags with duck tape!:

The ideas are infinite; get creative!...

Jewelry Box

Coming back to share a little detail in our staging...
I just made a jewelry box that will decorate my bathroom and it is assorted with the switch plates I made!
Decorative and useful!

There is 3 paint colors and I decoupage the main image.

It's the same technique that my little plaque tutorial.

and here some pictures with the assorted switch plate:

I am really happy with my new jewelry box!

Now I will have a pretty place for the nice necklaces I bought on Etsy!
