Small Measures: DIY Colored Baker’s Twine

http://assets7.designsponge.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/twine5.jpg I'm what you might call a simple kind of lady. My personal care routine is about as straightforward as it gets; I prefer the quiet company of friends and loved ones in intimate settings to the wild riot of the city; and I drink my coffee from a French press, with cream and nothing else. That said, I do like a bit of flourish this time of year, especially if it comes in the form of a cleverly adorned package. Whenever I receive a package that comes with a creative embellishment or decorative presentation, I'm completely smitten. Since the holiday season is seriously upon us, a bit of DIY decor of my own is in order. For today's Small Measures, I'm sharing my method for creating colored baker's twine. With a few tools, you'll be turning out skein after skein of decorative twine, in any color combination you see fit. Simple, yes. But stunning, too? Indeed. Happy holidays, friends! — Ashley English Read the full post after the jump . . .
