Admin — Mon, 28 Nov 2011 03:28:56 +0000

A friend of mine who works in a career network which connects job seekers who are looking for Technologists & Technicians Jobs, is busy renovating her house right now. She hopes to get everything done before Christmas. She loves the colour gray and yellow, and is on the search for some inspiration on how to decorate her home in these hues. Frankly, I think gray and yellow are beautiful and very classy. I found a few photos from my favourite home decor blogs and are going to show them to my friend. Hope she finds them useful.

Scrap Pallet Plank Wall

While my spouse was busy looking up the incredible s price from his favorite online store, I was on my laptop, admiring the beautiful wall which was covered with scrap pallet planks. You know how much I love looking at re-purpose furniture from wooden pallets. Katie from MomandHerDrill.blogspot.com made this wood plank wall out of scrap pallets. She removed the ring shank nails from the pallets and put together the wall all by herself. Isn’t that amazing? Who would have thought of using scrap pallets to cover the wall eh? I am so inspired.

If you do not know already, I am obsessed with anything that is made from straw or grass. While searching for barcode scanners, I hopped over to one of my favourite retail stores, Free People’s blog and saw the beautiful displays in their new store in Houston. There were many straw basket lights hanging from their ceiling. The bottoms of the baskets have been painted with colours and hung on the wall too. These basket pendant lights are just awesome!

Beautiful and creative

They are great as planters too.

I just love this idea very much. I hope to find some of these baskets for my home.

I am always on the lookout for storage ideas. I just cannot get enough of them. I used to stay in a rather small apartment and was always short on space. I used to read magazines or browse the internet for creative storage ideas for my home. Here is another great storage idea for the entryway from Remodelista.com. Though you cannot use it to store scales, but this wall-mounted canvas pocket hanger is great for stashing away keys, mail, sunnies or just about anything you like.
