Elegant addition for windows

In this post you can read about how to make easy and light cornice boards from foam board. This idea shared a woman from Forney, TX. She needed cornice boards for her bedroom and looked for it in interwebs. The lady found some information about using board made from foam insulation and decided to try it.

Firstly the woman chose the foam board from the home improvement store. But the man who helped her had a source of some free 2″ foam board (that had been used for shipping) so he grabbed up a couple of big pieces. She thought she needed at least 17 tall and, to be safe, about 50″ wide, but she didn’t do any serious measuring at that point.

So, they started working.

What’s the idea?

Gina from Lawrenceburg, TN, needed of a side table. She decided to make ones herself.

What is amazing in this project? She didn’t use any power tools.

You think that is impossible, right? Well, she did it. This mission took up her less than 30 minutes of hands on work and only a few supplies (you may have some of them on hand).

Also, you can make the same easy and quickly.

Gina got a basket at a yard sale for 3$.

Nevermind what it was before – a trash can or a laundry hamper. In her hand it was transformed into a side table.

Of course, somebody can use a different basket. It is your choice. Also, you can buy a similar one from a shop.

The most important thing in this case was how she converted it.

Exciting challenge!

Dara from Wilmington, NC talked us about the challenge to make her new family’s home more pleasant and beautiful place.

The house is big and around it there is so much greenery. Under the shade of the trees you could create a charming home that looks like a house of a fairy tale. It would be a really cozy home.

Look at the picture to see how dull and a lack of charm was this house. It really needed some color and lot of repairs.

When the family bought this house they knew that it needed a massive amount of work.

So, they started to remodel the façade.

If you ever lived in New York City, you know that the apartments there are usually so teeny tiny and dark. The buildings are old and so nearby each one and the view through the windows is often ugly. The light in the rooms is of course not enough.

Look at the picture above and see how much unpleasant is this place.

Lory’s daughter from Short Hills, NJ, was lodger in this apartment. So, Lory decided to turn this flat in more beautiful, airy and light space to call home.

It was a big challenge.

So let’s look at how to decorate a tiny dark apartment bedroom.
