Old Magazines
Confession time…. I can’t stand to throw away magazines! Thankfully thank look good on a bookshelf, so I don’t feel too bad hording them. Every now and then I’ll pull one out and go through it, and I did so last night. I came across some pages I had torn out to keep that I’d forgotten about and decided to share them with you!
These are some great ideas for decorating with wallpaper.
‘After decorating her daughter’s bedroom, Elizabeth Mayhew just kept going: She used the remnants to cover books, line shelves, and make place mats.’
Here’s a closer view.
1. Give your dresser drawers a lift by lining them
2. Wrap notebooks and an empty soup can for decorative desk accessories.
3. Cover old shoe boxes for stylish storage.
4. Slip a cutting into a store-bought frame for instant (and inexpensive) artwork.
5. Laminate equal-size swatches to make a set of place mats.
What do you think of this bed idea? I love the way they used the material!

Etsy Browsing…
Isn’t Etsy wonderful?? There are some really great, original things! I was browsing through and decided to share some of the great things I found.
Let’s start with some art!
How about some furniture?? This chair is totally awesome! Love the bench, too!
And I couldn’t leave out this particular piece of luggage… whoever came up with this idea was brilliant. Love, love, love!
Check out this honeycomb clock!
Who loves some pillows?? I DO! Cute pillows can really add so much to a room. There are so many pillows on Etsy that are adorable, that I had to narrow them down before I posted them… maybe one day I’ll do an “all pillow” post… hhmmm… who knows.
And I couldn’t leave out this really cool wall decal! How cool is this? I have a thing for birds… haha!
This wreath is adorable!
Aahhh…. Etsy is wonderful! I love it!
