Shoshana from Love Your Room has some amazing talent. She’s an interior designer and has been featured at HGTV and Houzz.com. Let me show you why that is! She can be inspired by a pizza box and make her home office look like this:


 

What?!  Yep.  Huge pizza box = large stencil.  Gorgeous, isn’t it?  I love it!  You can see her full post with more pictures at Home Office Inspired by a Pizza Box (including a how-to).
She also has a Super Easy (at least her headboard tutorial makes it look easy) DIY headboard. Cost = $63!


And finally, looking for more photo wall inspiration and tips on how to make it look great?

Beautiful Inspirations, Beautiful Bed

When someone falls in love with something (either furniture, decor or even an entire room in a magazine) and inspiration to DIY hits – they’re inspiring. Sometimes I can’t afford the things I want but when I can re-create it with my own two hands (or our four hands), it’s so rewarding. Money saved.  Pride in work.  This was the case with Kari from Beautiful Inspirations and her husband.  This is the Colette bed from Crate and Barrel.  Price tag $1799.

Thank you Kari for sharing your hard work. Good luck with the nail head trim but for now…the bed even at 99% is gorgeous and I am in love and inspired. Super job!

Bed Envy!

Kate from Twenty-six to Life is giving her master bedroom a makeover.   Uncertainty didn’t deter her from getting the bed and storage she wanted from PB.   She wasn’t sure she could pull off building a bed but a DIY’er dives right in!  Using Ana White’s plans as a guide, Kate and her husband built this amazing PB inspired Stratton bed…
Kate also designed and created a beautiful tufted headboard using a pretty damask print…
It’s awesome, Kate!  LOVE the big fluffy down comforter too…snuggling up in your new big bed has to be so rewarding!  It looks like the dogs agree!
You can find more information on Kate’s original posts:

There’s more good stuff where that came from!  There’s a DIY label at the top of her blog.  Check it out!  I’m so inspired.  We have plans to build an Ana White design as well…crossing my fingers that it turns out this gorgeous too!  Looking to be a brave DIY furniture builder?  GREAT designs at Ana-White.com. Warning – you’ll be motivated to put on some safety glasses and grab your tools!  If you’ve already created something beautiful with Ana White’s direction, I’d love to see it!  I’ve been meaning to ‘show off’ her site for a while now.  What better way than to share your projects?!
