I love this wreath for two reasons. One, it’s pretty dang cute. Two, it’s seasonal without being Holiday-specific so you get more bang for your buck. I’ll even throw in a third BONUS reason: it’s a great jumping off point if you do want to make it holiday specific. It’s all about the accessories, baby. […]
Reclaimed gym floor wall hooks?? How clever! Before you grab your wallet and get to ordering though, check out how to create a reclaimed wood wall treatment. Totally adaptable to a wall hook feature, right? If you’re itching for some color, mask off a similar design and grab your favorite spray paint. Easy. Done. For […]
If you liked last week’s Scandinavian Modern kitchen makeover, you’re in for a treat! As I mentioned yesterday, around this time of year I always get that rustic itch (which sounds like a virus, but I swear it’s not). I seek out and take inspiration from cozy spaces – move over shiny minimalist houses, I […]
During the Fall and Winter months, I tend to embrace my rustic side a bit more. The idea of logs and woodsy things in my home no longer seems borderline-tacky, but slightly charming and a semi-effective way of bringing nature indoors in an attempt to fight the winter blues. And speaking of fighting the winter […]
First things first: I love, LOOOVE a good before and after! It’s the dangling carrot that keeps me going and feeling inspired. If someone can turn that into that, then my projects don’t seem so intimidating and I get a tingling “I can do anything” sensation. And you know what? It feels good… So good, […]
Admittedly, I’m a bit of an under-decorator. I prefer the most minimal of minimal centerpieces (this was my centerpiece from xmas ’09, for example). As such, I’m always on the lookout for super-simple centerpiece ideas that are a) modern and b) inexpensive. And of course, unique and easy. Fortunately, the following centerpiece ideas are all […]
…Or melt your face. Either one. So, we live in a townhome right now that is covered with really awesome wall-to-wall carpeting. And by “awesome” I mean “nasty”. We have a staircase that’s covered in this unfortunate material as well, and I’ve always wanted to rip it up and see what’s going on under there. […]
What’s this? Another wreath post? Now that I’ve accepted this new domestic responsibility, I’m running with it. Yessir, I am embracing The Wreath and how! In fact, I’m making it my mission to search out and find every mod wreath on these here Internets. A tall task, but totally worth it. I hope you’ll come […]
Okay, I’m just going to put this out there. Not once in my entire adult life have I hung a wreath on my door. I know. Total domesticity fail. But 2010 is the year of my new life motto “Why not?”, so let’s do this.
For me, Halloween just wouldn’t be Halloween without a good-sized pile of pumpkin guts. But, if you’re the kind that would prefer a little less mess*, read on! Admit it. You saw all that fancy Japanese tape on the design blogs, went out and ordered yourself some, and now you’re stuck with beautiful, albeit semi-impractical, […]
