DIY Couch

Beginning with a handmade box measured to fit the cushions in mind...

Purchasing ready made cushions from Ikea...

Adding accent pillows to fill the back and bring color...

Adding 2 smaller built boxes and pillows for the "lounger" look...

Or set up straight in front for a futonish couch...

This is one Amazing cool idea.  More from desiretoinspire.blogspot.com

Mo Willems Doodles-Chalkboard Walls

Welcome to the AWESOME home of MO WILLEMS, childrens author extrodanier.   

These pictures come from his blog: mowillemsdoodles.blogspot.com.

This is his dining room with wall to wall chalkboard paint.

His family painted and drew their wall art.  

I love this because then it can change everyday!  

I'm thinking that I want this in a reading nook, or better yet, a cafe corner where friends come for breakfasts, lunches...where we play games.  Hey, pictionary right there on the wall!  

I also love the idea of having friends sign their names.  I was thinking this could even go to writing up menus, quotes for the day, or family goal reminders.  

There is just so much possibility with this.  Thanks for the fun Mo!

Hanging Book Display

This really struck me...a simple hanging shelf, great colors, understated.  

The idea comes from Ohdeedoh.  Here is the website for more and step by step instructions:

Borgen Castle by VeraVera

A love the idea of using the corner space for a Kiddie Castle, aka, reading/napping corner.  Fastastic!!

Can these come adult sized? I want one of my own!

You purchase the ready to assemble Borgen from VeraVera and install yourself, though I wonder if you could make it. This is a great room within a room while not taking much floor space.  Check our VeraVera for pricing.

Modern Chess Board

Could this get any cooler?  I'm totally making one.  My only question is whether it's fabric that it's on or scrap papers with mod podge. More on that later.  Time to start collection dollhouse furniture.
