Hotel Inspiration

Spent the weekend in Vancouver, B.C. and stayed at the Shangri-La.


I now want chandeliers everywhere!

And floor-to-ceiling marble in my bathroom.

31 Ways to Add Character...

The guest bathroom is nearing completion.  There will be a "real" post soon, I promise.

In the mean time, I discovered another new blog.
The Yellow Cape Cod:  www.theyellowcapecod.com

I especially like her segment on how to add character to a builder grade home.  Most of us have one of these, right?

31 different projects, each with a matching tutorial.

Some examples:

DIY Striped Drapes

How to achieve the distressed white Pottery Barn finish

5 Minute Frame Fix (I think I'm going to have to do this very, very soon)

Thrifted Furniture Makeover

And many more.
