My desk at work is glass and whenever my phone vibrates it resonates at an embarrassing volume. What I needed was a place to keep my cell phone that was easily accessible and, of course, cute.

These are the types of projects that sit in the back of my mind as I scour thrift stores. The other day I was browsing the knick-knacks at a local antique shop and I came across this tacky little votive:

Weird? A little. Functional? Hardly. Cute? There’s definitely some potential.

All it took was a little cleaning up, two coats of spray paint and *tweet! tweet!* cute cell phone caddy! I can even run the charger cord through the hole in the front.

I have now cutified my desk.
