DIY Travel Boxes

Underneath the bed in my spare bedroom are two giant bins filled with craft supplies. I’d say about half of those supplies are for scrapbooking. But I have yet to make a scrapbook. In fact, my attempts to make scrapbooks are so non-existent that I barely even take pictures anymore because I know I really won’t do too much with them, other than store them on my computer.

With my upcoming honeymoon just a couple of months away, I definitely want to break this habit. Which is why this travel box DIY/scrapbook alternative in the March issue of Martha Stewart is right up my alley. All you have to do is make a box, put the location of your travels on the side and then fill it with all of your vacation goodies. You can organize it however you please – but it’s quick and meaningful, without all of the hassle of cutting and pasting and adding stickers. Which I love, don’t get me wrong, I just never get to it!

This is perfect for me because while I love to save ticket stubs and all that, not only do I not scrapbook them, I really don’t even take them out of my purse until I clean it out six months later.

What do you think of these travel boxes? Are you a lazy memento-keeper like me or are you good at the scrapbooking?

Animal Outlines: Would You Rather?

Given the popularity of cowhide rugs and other animal outlines draped on living room and bedroom floors, it’s interesting to see the look in a different way, as on the comforter of the bed within the first image.

As the throw shown above is a hotel room, I think that it would be more functional in a room like that – or perhaps a guest room. I don’t know about you, but I’d get tired of taking that thing off every night and then rearranging it in the morning!

If you absolutely had to display an zebra or leopard rug or throw, which look would you rather – as a throw on a bed or as a rug on the floor?

Warm Rustic Finish Traditional Bedroom w/Panel Bed & Options

Classic grasscloth headboard

Materials: Hemnes queen bed frame, Anno Sanela blind, pre-finished polystyrene molding, liquid nails, saw and miter box, and clamps Description: We bought the Hemnes bedroom furniture suite but recently started feeling tired of the baby crib-like bars at the top of the headboard, especially since that's all we could see of the headboard once all of the bed pillows were in place. We wanted to maintain the classic and clean lines of footboard and nightstands without adding a lot of weight or taking apart the bedframe. We found our solution with the Anno Sanela blind at Ikea, it was light, large enough to cover the headboard, stiff enough to hold its shape without wrinkling, and had a great seagrass texture that completed our bedding.
