Lighting

It's usually pretty easy to change the lighting in your home but the result can be radical.  I added an Ikea Maskros (see post one here and post two here) to my dining room and it's truly a WOW impact.  Not all lighting has to be that dramatic, but I also changed the shades on lamps in another room and the color alone took years off the room.  The first shades were brown with yellow inside, the second set was just bright white which made the whole room brighter, cleaner.

Menu on the wall

A Dutch farm/hotel called Babylonstoren near Cape Town puts a menu on the wall.  Nice cow.

Campaign style desks

Also known as x-leg or cross-leg style, they popular.  You can find the same look on tables and ottomans but here's a little inspiration in the desk category.

My next project: Paint my interior doors jet black!

This is a great way to make any place look instantly more chic.  Paint the doors black!!!  A black front door always looks sharp, but I'm talking about closets, bathrooms, bedrooms and the back of your front door.  I'm researching the paint (oil vs. latex, etc) and I'm going to post the before and after pictures when I'm done....  My front foyer has a main door with side light panels, two closet doors and the door to the lower level.  I can't wait to start!  But as far as I can tell, this works when you:

1. Leave the trim around the doors white
2. Use a quality high gloss paint
3. The surrounding walls are pale

Stay tuned!

DIY Rope and LED light rug

While I love it in white, a darker color may be more durable.
