Turn a tablecloth into a Floorcloth!

Today I wanted to show you guys a cool way to make a floorcloth that doesn't require any painting or designing of any kind on your part. All you need is a good eye and some bargain ...»
hunting skills, and I know ya'll have those in abundance. So lets get started!

I was shopping at my beloved Target and saw some GREAT printed tablecloths from the DwellStudio Line on the clearance endcap. Already reasonably priced at full price, they were clearanced out to$8.98! I don't normally use tablecloths, but couldn't pass up this bargain! I started wondering what other things I could do with them...Wall hanging? Foot-of-the-bed pop of color? Curtains? Slipcover fabric? Then I spotted a round one with a Suzani print, and got an idea!

Hop over to the blog to see the rest of this post and the tutorial!

Flooring: Can two different type of hardwood floors close together still work

I plan on replacing my kitchen floor with tile that looks like hardwood. At that time I plan on replacing the kitchen floor I would like to replace my hallway which the kitchen is off of. The problem is the hallway stops just short of my dining room which is hardwood. I don't want to match floor colors nor do I have the money to replace the dining room floor.

Do you think having two different color floors that close together is a wrong way to go?

    I think it could work as long as the hallway has the same high sheen that the other has. I ...»
    like different. You can use the dark wood color from the other room to accent the hallway through the use of vases, and an runner rug.

    street that would compliment the house. While keeping the different colors it face the inside of the yard to keep the artistic expression.

Check out this inviting outdoor living space!

It includes a custom deck around a resistance pool and an arbor with a fireplace that anchors one end of the yard. Pavers and stone laid in sod tie the two areas together.
