this is such a great idea. despite always holding on to my apple packaging for resale, this totally makes me look at other packaging in a new light! Before & After: The Magic Mouse Container Terrarium |

i'd known about properly reflecting light for some years now, but not the use of black to create more shadows and depth - thanks for the tip! Better Photos with White & Black Reflectors Super Photo Magic School |

i've been using the same method since i was 12! i tear out the pages i like and put them in clear plastic sheets in 3-ring binders. over the years i've developed themed binders - recipes, interior design, crafts, etc. it cuts back on how much i keep around the house, but keeps me from ever missing *that* great piece a flipped through all those years ago. and amazingly, i actually do go back and reference stuff from that long ago!

You would think I spend every minute of my day working on an art or craft project with how many materials I have! On the plus side, I like organizing, so it's all neatly displayed so I don't look like an out-of-control hoarder! Are You a Home Project Hoarder? |

i love the idea of helping the plight of honeybees. for those who are wary of raising them, there is always the option to use your balcony or garden as a safe haven for bees to find food. there are lists all over the web of what plants bees like most. Beepods: Urban Beekeeping Kits |

interesting idea, but wouldn't your dogs be cold if their bed is being used to block/absorb any cold air that's coming in? Hot Tip! Use Your Dog Bed as a Draft Dodger |

a plant swap - what a great idea! i love how easily succulents propagate - they're so sturdy, even for people who don't have much of a green thumb like myself... Starting a Garden Without Spending a Ton of Green |

tassenkast is so lovely. what a cute way to sort items in the entry way of a home or apartment with a lot of people living in it. My Design Favorites from Priveekollektie Design Miami / Basel 2010 | Apartment Therapy New York |

such a good idea if you don't mind looking out of bubble wrap. probably a fun effect when holiday lights are up and reflecting through all the bubbles... Apartment Therapy Re-Nest | How To: Insulate with Bubble Wrap |

that is a seriously gorgeous cover and probably fairly easy to recreate given it's made out of veneer. Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Woven Wood Radiator Cover |

i love clustered chandeliers. mamacita restaurant here in s.f. has clustered chandeliers with large rusted metal lights - can make a great effect when the right materials are used in a space. Apartment Therapy New York | Hot or Not? Cluster Chandelier by James Plumb |

vintage pant hangers work great for this as well - etsy and ebay generally have a bunch for about a dollar a piece. one caveat though - sometimes the felt is missing and needs to be replaced in order to actually hold the print. Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Look! Skirt Hangers as Poster Frame |

i like to string twine across a section of wall and hang the cards with clothes pins. pretty simple and nothing large to store away after the holiday season. Apartment Therapy Chicago | Good Questions: Holiday Card Display Ideas? |
