HEADBOARD ILLUSION

An affordable headboard idea from Martha Stewart. Perhaps this appeals to me because of the color and pattern it can add to the room or perhaps its because my father is a wallpaper hanger. It's a quick, easy and inexpensive way to personalize a bedroom.

MAKING HOME

So, we just moved into our first place. A cute little two bedroom house that's very...beige and well, let's just say it looks better at night. I'm not terribly crafty (in fact I'm quite lazy) and I'm no domestic goddess but I'm determined to discover what makes a good home from the most important to the simple pretty things. And, like my wedding planning, I plan to enjoy what others have done along the way, even if it doesn't fit my current lifestyle. It's all part of learning what makes a good home.
