AH-maaazing!

Obsessed....that is all I can say.  AND they were spotted on Name Design Studio on Etsy!

Plumbing takes a New Look

Take old piping and create an interesting bookshelf - industrial chic!  Raid a local salvage warehouse or buy this one from StellaBleuDesigns on Estsy.

Stack it up

Using old wood crates never looked this good! Stack up a unique design to give you more storage in a room. I really love the use of white accents, bringing a clean sleek look against the rustic look of storage crates. A great re-purposed DIY project!  Image and product from LBrandt Terraria Etsy shop.

Vintage Inspired

This vintage stool from Target has the look of an antique find but at the affordable price of $49.99. We love the distressed wood finish and old grains sack look for the cushioned top.

Give old furniture a new life!

I am such a fan of flea markets/thrift stores and giving old furniture a new life. I love these various decoupaging ideas for furniture over at HGTV.

The subway map coffee table shown above is my favorite!

Click here for instructions on how to decoupage.

These ink and watercolor by Philip Simmons on are interesting and affordable. Check out his store on Etsy and buy a few!

I'm Dreaming of White Wallpaper

While you may be dreaming of a white Christmas this holiday season - here in Miami Beach - I am dreaming of white wallpaper! I am moving this Friday to a new apartment and trying to come up with interesting/subtle ways to add some texture. These wall papers are fantastic, beautifully designed and some are even paintable! They are also a great way to cover up imperfect walls:
