Love the pic. Had to comment to tell you that I have the same cake stand! It was a gift.
Here it’s holding the first lemon meringue pie I ever made.
You know that it doubles as a punch bowl, right? Just need to make some punch someday…

This is a super cute idea! I have so many large items that I never had a place for. I am so going home to do this! Amanda´s last blog post..Toilet Paper at Sam’s Club

The 365 challenge is becoming quite popular. The increase in folks committing to it is encouraging and I’m wondering if I too can do it, faithfully.

We use under-the-bed storage. I bought some plastic bins and they just slide in and out. They stored toys or shoes under our kids beds, and blankets or seasonal clothes under ours. momstheword´s last blog post..

I just decided to put more houseplants in our living room (http://justplainjoy.blogspot.com/2009/01/beauty-vs-simplicity.html) and they will be going on top of our bookcases.

I live in an owned house (we’ll own it in a bit less than 30 yrs), and I still love this paper idea. Adding a punch, without the pain or permanence of wallpaper? Awesome!

oh, yes! we do lots of “looking up.” we have a lot of people living in a small house, so we try and pair organization with decluttering!
i like your wrapping paper idea. contact paper is another good one!

I think this is a very creative idea for renters, or those who can’t otherwise change their rooms! My husband and I are about to move into a church parsonage and we may not be able to permanently change paint colors, so I’m thrilled to add this idea to my creative notebook.

Thanks very much!

Erin, we just used little pieces of double sided tape. I’ve heard it can damage paint, but it hasn’t seemed to be a problem for us.
