Pops of Color
With everyone “going white” in home decor, do you feel a little like you’re getting lost in a sea of neutrals? There is a fine line between the boring blahs and wowing with whites. One of the keys is to add pops of color. The color doesn’t disrupt the white, it sets it off and […]
Measure Twice, Hang Once
First of all, I decided that I am not going to host FFF this week (again.) I am a guest judge on The CSI Project for furniture makeover week, so if you have something to share, link it up over there and I will be picking ten of my favorites and one winner. Will it be […]
