I have a german short-haired pointer and training and a lot of exercise is key- a good dog is a tired dog! I also crate my dog when I am not home so I don't have to worry about her getting into something she's not supposed to when I am not around to supervise. When she was a puppy she did get into her fair share of trouble,GSP's do like to climb, but with correction and reinforcement your dogs will learn. I never had any issues with not being able to decorate my house the way I wanted. Pet Proofing: Best Tips for Dog-Friendly Design? Good Questions |

To take a beautiful vintage desk and turn it into a fake country monstrosity is truly tragic. This would have been a better makeover if it was done with a piece of furniture from Ikea. Before & After: Old-School Desk Gets a Makeover Storywood Designs |

It is a shame that an antique dresser was used for this project. Refinished it would be stunning. If someone wants to turn a piece of furniture into a succulent garden use an ikea dresser. Before & After: Old Dresser Becomes a Garden of Succulents Grizzly Bear Modern |

I can't sleep unless something, even a thin top sheet is covering me. In addition to that I need white noise, complete darkness, my dog and a blankie to bunch up and put under my head for extra support. What's Your Can't Live Without Item for a Good Night's Sleep? Reader Survey |

I have a dog that sheds a lot and I couldn't live without my Miele. I have a bottom of the line model but it performs great and I have never had an issue with it. I will only buy Miele from here on out. Reader Roundup: The Best Vacuum? |

I hate trendy rooms. I think there has to be moderation and balance. I am so sick of chevrons, cowhide rugs, and a room completely "done" in a particular style. Been There, Done That: Designers Weigh In On "Worst Trends" Elle Decor |

I love Yumont True Value Hardware! They are always my go-to store before I head over to the big box stores. The guys who work there are a wealth of information. Apartment Therapy Boston | Christmas Tree Supplies: Local Hardware Store vs. Big Box Stores |

The easiest way I can think of would be to apply the wallpaper to a pre-stretched canvas. Dick Blick has great prices on canvases. I would get a gallery canvas that has a thicker profile and paint the edges in a color from the wallpaper. But be sure to paint the canvas edges before applying the wallpaper it will be far easier.
