Fabric Covered Banker Box {DIY}

A special thanks to Kelly for sharing one of her fun and beautiful DIY projects! Enjoy...

I have a house with limited storage space, so I am always on the hunt for viable storage solutions. We have one of these modular storage bookcases in just about every room. These are great for my smaller items that will fit in an 11x11 box. For the larger items, I needed an alternative place to store those. Because they would most likely be out in the open, I needed an idea that was practical and pretty. I remembered using cardboard Banker Boxes when we needed storage in my office, and it gave me an idea. Why not cover them to make them presentable? That’s when I came up with the idea to make Fabric Covered Storage Boxes. This is a super easy and affordable craft you can do in an afternoon!

Houzz.com

If your box room has always been more ‘box’ than ‘room’, it’s time to help it realize its potential with a nifty new makeover. It can be tricky to transform a smaller space into a fully-fledged, bonafide room, and there’s always the temptation to just fill it up with clutter. Panic not: however tiny the space, you can transform it in a flash with these top tips.

For The Love of Apothecary Jars!

The origin of the word "apothecary" means one who sells or prepares herbs or drugs for medicinal purposes. There was a time when pharmacies were a place of social gathering and apothecary shops were everywhere. As glassware fell into common use, different designs and shapes began to emerge. 

Style, Storage & Space of Crystal Stemware!

There seems to be much debate on whether or not to store crystal stemware glasses rim side down or stem side down. Some experts will tell you to never place your crystal glasses rim side down, because you are adding stress to the delicate rim. Wine connoisseurs will tell you placing glasses rim side down doesn't allow the glasses to breathe. It can add stress to the delicate rim. Makes sense to me. Afterall, glasses are not designed to be placed rim side down. However, I personally store my glasses rim side down to keep the inside of the glass dirt and dust free!

The Epiphanie Camera Bag Delivers Function, Fashion & Style {Review & Giveaway}

I'm not a professional photographer by any means, but ever since I got my DSLR camera, I do enjoy snapping pictures. I take my camera with me everywhere I go.  Unfortunately, up until a few weeks ago, I was lugging my camera around in a not-so-pretty black nylon bag that was free with the purchase of my camera.  I really wanted something stylish that looked great and kept my camera safe and secure too.

Enter my Epiphanie Stella Bag!

Thanks to Epiphanie Bags,  I now own one of the most incredibly fashionable camera bags EVER!  I'm in love with my hot pink Stella Camera Bag! Isn't she a beauty?! This bag is certainly not your average boring nylon camera bag.  My camera bag is made from a high-quality synthetic leather that is water resistant, super strong, and durable. It even has protective metal feet on the underside! I can be a little rough on my bags, so durability is very important to me.

Moving into a dorm room can be a drastic change from the comforts of home. Make the transition to dorm life easier by adding a few special touches to freshen 

Colorful Bedding
Instantly transform any dorm room with an attractive comforter like the Twin Comforter set shown above. It is bright and cheerful and comes complete with a sham and pillow, and will provide a polished look.    

Wall Decals 
Not sure if you can paint those dreary dorm walls? Wall decals will add character and are easy to apply. Decals can be reused too. Remove them carefully at the end of the year, and you can reuse them in your next dorm room. Zulily has this adorable black chandelier wall decal and four pages of other wall decals here!  

Stylish Organization For The Dorm Room!

Even students heading back to school after winter break are looking for an organized and fresh start to the new year. Lately, I've noticed there have been several Pinterest pins of a Victoria's Secret PINK dorm decor pic I posted back in August. I can only assume the increase in pins is due to the VS PINK storage bins shown in that picture.
