Why even have a boot tray if you are going to get one with holes that let the water and mud drip to the floor?

For my rented house, I got some UV protection exterior window shades from Coolaroo (http://www.coolaroousa.com/) that were on sale. They've worked well.

I just came across two barely-used Pantone chip books that were being thrown away. I have been looking for mosaic-type inspiration, and here it is.

I would love it if you guys would run a piece linked to or featuring this creatively renovated small camper, http://honeyrockdawn.com/2011/07/my-gypsy-trailer/, or, actually any topic related to this wonderfully creative and inspiring blogger, Shreve Stockton.

Or, try your local thrift store. I got an old rollup projector screen last year with its own foldup stand, and about th size pictured, for $20 in my local Goodwill, and I see other old screens like it there all the time. I also see the inflatable screens, although they are usually more expensive, $50 and up, and may have holes that need to be patched. The beauty of the projector screens is the material, specifically designed for the purpose. I'm not against DIY, but there's no reason not to make use of easy-to-set-up and store re-used screens with purpose-designed material.

What a shin-buster! My dog also sleeps in the bedroom a lot of the day hours also, so I'd need to leave it open all the time. After a long stint where my medium-sized dog's bed was under a table-like nightstand, I replaced that set-up with her wire crate, so that I can contain her in there when needed, and it's not as dark and gloomy as the furniture was. I put a small tray on top to hold a few nightstand-type items. BTW, here are wooden furniture-type end table/dog crates on the market but I'm not inclined to buy one because it seems they don't let in much light.

on that note: see the gallery of the Doug Fir Lounge in Portland, OR: http://www.dougfirlounge.com/gallery.html. Cabin meets mid-century modern.
