Do you have any of these closet doors in your house? You know, the sort of flimsy sliding kind? Well I do. And they happen to be in our master bedroom.

I stumbled across a cake stand during one of my thrifting adventures AGES ago (like 6+ months), which had been sitting in our garage waiting for some crafty action. Well, I got my butt into gear the other day and finally pulled this puppy out. Here's what we were starting with. Floral, a little wonky, and just pretty uuuugly. I think I paid around $2 for it.

One of my latest design projects is a nursery room. Two of our BFFs are expecting a little guy this fall so I'm helping them get the room all ready for the new little dude in their life. I love doing kids rooms - you can have so much more fun with colour and pattern, and people are usually way more up for out-of-the-box stuff!
