Oh how I need help with my magazine addiction. I can't help it! I love books and I loooove magazines! I worked for a bookstore for 8 years, therefore, loooooooots of books, loooooots of old mags. I have given up a lot, but still have - a lot. Anway, with that said, I found this great page I saved from an old Martha Stewart Living mag.
I Embellished my photo box a bit more. Pics to come later..... more inspirations below:

Sometimes bookmarks fall out and you're left thumbing through page after page, trying to remember where you left off. Or you have to look up that often-used recipe in your favorite cookbook because its ribbon markers already hold the places of other tried-and-true dishes. Avoid these annoyances with placeholders that fit onto the corner of any page.
To make one, cut a bottom corner from an ungusseted paper bag (the kind card shops use) or a colorful envelope. Ours is about 2 inches long from corner to cut. Create several to track your best-loved recipes or when planning the menu for a special dinner.
Linen TrimCreate tone-on-tone sophistication by trimming silk-organza sheers with linen in a slightly deeper shade. Green linen panels on silk-organza sheers give just the right touch of color to a living room dressed in neutral hues. You'll need sheers that measure the height of your windows, plus an extra 14 inches or more for the flounce; a band of linen at the bottom will extend your curtains to the floor.

1. Start by adding the top linen trim: Cut a strip of linen equal to the width of the curtain plus 1 inch and double the height of the top hemmed channel plus 1 inch. Fold in all edges 1/2 inch; iron. Fold in half lengthwise; iron. Sandwich the strip over the curtain's channel; pin in place, and stitch.
