our own little ikea hack

a few months ago, at ikea, we noticed this pot lid holder. we don’t have a lot of pots and less pot lids even, but we purchased it anyway. guess what we use it for… postcards, of course!!

it’s isn’t exactly an ikea “hack”, but it fits our needs well. also, the higher racks are smaller and the lower ones are larger, which comes in quite handy for those big sized ones.

we don’t like the idea of “storing” postcards away, once received. they make us happy, so we want to look at them! :)

Now you made me wish for a pot lid holder. :) Some time ago I bought 100 pieces of small “cloth pegs” – about 2 cm long each, so they are not so good for clothes, but perfect for small items such as postcards. They come out in every kind of colours, very cheerful :) My new project will be to actually stretch some kind of string in my room and use these pegs to hold my cards…
