Cómo aprovechar un salón de muy pocos metros

Lo primordial en un salón de pocos metros es aprovechar al máximo el espacio y potenciar la luz natural. Los colores claros -en paredes, tapicerías, puertas y suelos-, los muebles bajos y de reducidas dimensiones, son grandes aliado

Un buen recurso también es utilizar muebles funcionales y prácticos. Este salón, por ejemplo, cuenta con una mesa de centro que se levanta y baja a voluntad, a través de sus piernas y altura regulable, y puede, por lo tanto ser utilizado como mesa de centro o mesa de comedor, según la ocasión.

Detrás del sofá, se ha aprovechado un antiguo conducto de humos, para instalar en la pared unas gruesas planchas de roble teñido que cumplen la función de una biblioteca.

Para obtener más luz, las paredes y el sofá son de tonos claros, y las cortinas son transparentes. El resto de la decoración es suave y femenino: el sofá decorado con cojines de seda pastel, y en el suelo, una alfombra de pelo de vacuno teñidos de fucsia.

Paredes para niños artistas

Desde ahora, en las paredes sí se escribe, se dibuja y se pinta. Estas opciones te servirán para que tus niños muestren su arte y creatividad en las paredes (sin destrozarlas) de sus dormitorios y cuartos de juego.

Una opción es convertir una pared en una pizarra con una pintura especial. Los colores más habituales son verde (como los tableros escolares) y negro (opción más actual), pero hay firmas como Cuarto Color que han desarrollado hasta 10 colores diferentes en pintura de pizarra. Lo puedes adquirir en tiendas especializadas de pintura y bricolaje.


Otra opción muy divertida es convertir una pared en tablero magnético con pinturas que incorporan partículas metálicas y permiten sujetar elementos directamente en la pared, con imanes. Para que la superficie tenga magnetismo hay que aplicar 3-4 capas y renovarlas cada año (2 capas más). Las hay con acabados de pizarra como las de Bruguer y otras que permiten cualquier acabado como la de Mag Paint (Pinturalmán).

Simple, Inexpensive "Window Treatment"

I really won't be doing a Christmas post every day this month, so for those of you who aren't looking for Christmas ideas, hang in there! :-)

I was at the Dollar Store before Thanksgiving and saw these big white styrofoam snowflakes for $1 each. The front of them actually has a felt texture with a tish bit of glitter. I liked them, so I bought some without actually knowing what I was going to do with them.

After thinking about it, I decided to take down the window treatment in my master bath (just for the holidays) and make a "christmas valance". I already had the little gold ornaments and, as you can see in the photo below, the back was just the right size to stick into the holes in the snowflake - no glue needed!


There was already a little white ribbon attached to each snowflake, so I just used that to attach them to the curtain rod. To soften it a bit, I added a length of wide ribbon that I already had in one of my Christmas boxes. That was it. $5 worth of snowflakes and ornaments/ribbon that I already had...

I'll be editing to link to blog parties as they happen:
DIY Day at ASPTL
Get Your Craft On! at Today's Creative Blog
Trash To Treasure at Reinvented
Transformation Thursday at Shabby Chic Cottage
Thrify Thursday at Tales From Bloggeritaville

Have an awesome day!

Tabletop Christmas Trees

BHG.com

Hi there! I hope you all had a great holiday weekend! We had a very busy, but very enjoyable Thanksgiving and weekend. The last of my out-of-town guests just left about an hour ago, so I'm quite honestly just not quite back into my blogging groove yet.

My niece and I were talking about tabletop trees last night. Since it was on my mind, I thought I would do a quick post with some unique tabletop tree ideas to ease back into my blogging week. These are just some of the ideas available from BHG.com. More ideas are available on their site.

These trees were made by rolling paper into conical shapes, trimming the bottom and gluing a bead to the top.

I LOVE this idea below. Simple and unique, and think how much the look could change depending on the wrapping paper/ribbon/cake stand you chose. You could also make it taller, and finish it off with some sort of tree topper. Also make it with or without ribbon (although I really like the ribbon!)

Topiary forms and tinsel garland...
REALLY liking these topiaries...

How 'bout a button tree?

I also wanted to thank This Mama Rocks for featuring me as blog of the week, and Annie from A View On Design for the Lovely Blog Award. Thank you so much ladies!

A Dogs Life

THE SPLENDOR OF AMERICA’S PAST IS REBORN ON LAKE MICHIGAN

Published October 2009 in Architectural Digest

For the making of their new family residence on Chicago’s North Shore, a couple worked with architect Robert A. M. Stern and his partner Randy Correll. Victoria Hagan decorated the interiors.Landscape architect Douglas Hoerr handled the grounds. The front elevation of the 16,000-square-foot Georgian Revival-style house.

Everything in this home is smooth and subtle.

The greens & blues just work. I don't think this home is over done in the least.

The traditional and the contemporary are blended beautifully.

I love the floor.

I have the same materials and pattern on my bedroom's terrace deck.

The comforter is so comfy.

No?

*Note the covered buttons.

Great pool and a tiered lawn....I love that!

Did you see the movie ' Road to Perdition?'

I have never seen the shores of Lake Michigan, and was blown away by the sand and the water (in the movie scenes).

I never knew about the beautiful sand on the lake's shore.

It is just as if it were along an ocean shore.

This shot (below) made me think of the ending of the movie, and the sandy beach where the father

(Tom Hanks) and the son walk on the sand while heading to their hide-out.

A friend of the family's home.

I have watched this 3 times. The cinematography is outstanding.

....geeez

*Do you think I am too old to get adopted?

Do you like this home?

Could you live there?
