DIY: Paint Old Picture Frames; Make New Art
September 24, 2009 at 12:00 PM by Cafe MicheleZ - Comments (1)
Ready for a before and after?
I'm starting to decorate my twins' nursery and I am on a tight budget. Plus I like doing crafty things. So I decided to dig out old picture frames and do something exciting with them. Paint them in pop colors and put whimsical prints in them for the kids' walls.
If you don't have old frames lying around like I do, you can always pick some up cheap at a thrift store. And you can of course do this for any room in the house.

Love this collection of art on MadeByGirl and how it's displayed on simple wall shelves. This minimal and bracket-free shelving from IKEA would work nicely.
Are you an art collector? How do you display your art collection?

Japanese Masking Tape and Its Wonderfulness
August 24, 2009 at 7:00 AM by Cafe Sheri - Comments (3)
I adore Japanese masking tape. I use it to wrap packages, pretty up mail, and to hang pictures and the kids' drawings on the walls. It's bright and lovely and doesn't ruin or tear paper or leave a residue like regular masking tape or scotch tape.
Check out all the new colors and patterns they have in at Ginko Papers. I love.

I love Cut Out and Keep's DIY bulletin board made from a Scrabble board and tiles. Wouldn't it be perfect to hang in a kid's bedroom?
