I fell upon this cute blog/website created by a mom/daughter interior design duo. Look like they have so much fun together! How lucky are they? I think they might have every mom and daughter’s dream job. On their blog they document all kinds of fun projects that they do together and even show off their modeling skills at a variety of high-fashion boutiques. I love how even the younger daughter isn’t afraid to share her mother’s fashion style… Classic-conservative yet still very beautiful.

Ok, so now the point of this posting today: DIY projects featuring pieces with “GOOD BONES,” as Lauren and Suzanne say. Go to your local thrift store, goodwill, or a garage sale and purchase a cheap not-so-pretty piece of furniture. Somebody’s trash is going to be your treasure! Use your imagintation and think how wonderful that old dresser, mirror, frame, chair, etc. would look with a new coat of paint. Get creative and add new knobs, wallpaper on the inside, a coat of shiny lacquer, nailheads, rhinestones, whatever you like. YOu are really going to save some money and the best part is…You’ll be adding a touch of character to your home!
