ugly bonbon stand gone washi
What to do with an ugly bonbon stand (christmas gift) that missed the ride to the trash. I’ve spunked it up with some washi tape and now it’s a nice stand for erasers, paperclips etc.

If you ever visit Vancouver Canada, be sure to check out Old Faithful Shop. They have a very nice collection of good quality goods for simple, everyday living. “We are drawn to products that are well-made, classic in design and when possible hand-crafted by a human being. We feel that the best products are the ones that age well and stand the test of time – items that will exist long after we do not.” And as a bonus they have a cute dog that lives in the shop.
