We agreed years ago to alternate T-day between our house (somewhere in the states, but never the same house twice) and my b-i-l's in Florida. Christmas is always at home. T-day is very hectic, a ...
are those birdcage decals? Source, please--i adore them. My little gal's room is aqua with red, pink & white accents--the birds would look smashing in there!
I second a family membership to a museum, or garden, or something like that. For something a little less spendy, there are jigsaw puzzles designed for families--bigger pieces for littler kids, sma...
I prefer 'inspired by' to 'knock-off'. It would be frillion times easier to do the trunk in fabric (probably cheaper too). Spray adhesive works really well, and it does come off pretty cleanly, ...
That would actually work for my little gem. She's SO very motivated by her meals, she just stays in place to eat, very little distracts her. She's also fussy enough to be annoyed with falling foo...
We found hooks that secure both the top and the bottom of a frame. They weren't available in any of the big box hardware stores, but the local Ace in Oakland carried a pretty extensive line of ear...

We have a dedicated shelf in the livingroom for library books. We're at the library so often, it's always full and a dedicated shelf helps keep losses and fines to a minimum. My 10 yo is permitt...
I knew I wanted an aqua, red & white room for my daughter's nursery--I thought I might want cherries on some of the fabric, but that was as much as I had planned. A month or so after my plan came ...
I LOVE the idea of these but wonder if there is enough sunlight available during a mid-western winter day to actually power the lights. They seem perfect for my parents in Florida, but here in Cow...
Consider getting an allerban cover for the duvet too. While I wash the flat bedding weekly, removing the comforter from its cover and washing both weekly is just too much. I have an allerban cove...
Judi,
i applied fabric to the built-in bookshelves in my living room. I used tack nails to hold the fabric at the top and used a spray-on adhesive (found at the fabric store) to cemen...
