Fun design from Etsy...

I have the big green painting of New York that is in this video. There is just a tiny glance of it through another room but it was fun to see it in someone else's cool mid-century home!

Shelf decorating DIY: How to put together a great shelf display

Decorating shelves and mantles can be frustrating. Even the most outstanding and unique piece can get lost in a mismanaged display.

It was like being in old Vegas! Here are a few pictures of the night and the outfits that people sported...
