Anthropologie Display

anthropologie jean wall display

The Jean Wall...  Legs of jean fabric layered on the wall as a study of the blues.  Utterly fantastic, but probably challenging to clean.  And how bout those hanging shelves?  I love Anthropologie.  I love the creativity of their displays and I love their clearance racks!  Every time I go I snap a few shots to give inspiration for unique decorating...

How To Hang A Wreath On Your Front Door

So this is the first year we've hung a wreath on our front door.  Those over the door wreath hooks?  Well, we aren't fans as they can leave your door scared with chips and dents in the wood and paint.

Master Bath Home Tour


I would like to get a bigger rug, or perhaps a long runner.  But I haven't seen something worthy of opening my pocket book.  The black wall light above the mirror used to be silver and a bit bronze but we sprayed it black.  You can also see my up cycled wall mounted candle holder.

Perhaps you remember my vintage trunk I use for storage in my guest room. (It actually houses old adult halloween costumes).  Today, our guest post is from Susi, a writer for Arcadian Lighting, a must-shop resource for beautiful light fixtures. She is a big fan of vintage luggage and in this post, she shares tips for reuse and decorating with them.

Tissue Box Cover Craft

Watercolor Tie Dye Tissue Box Cover

My favorite watercolors are from Discount School Supplies.  These vibrant, liquid watercolors are what we used in last year's school auction art project, "Our Universe." I filled two little containers with the watercolor and let my two and a half year old brush it on randomly.
