Today I thought I’d round-up a few items/ideas I’ve come across over the last few weeks and found to be pretty brilliant.  Basically I’m using you to remember these things in the future  Hopefully its a win-win and you think they’re great too!

In the most recent HGTV magazine, interior designer Tobi Fairly highlighted the Quorum International Prizzm Collection ceiling fan as one way to gain air circulation while avoiding their traditional obtrusive look. Putting this on my bedroom wish-list!

Have you been watching the new season of Candice Olson’s show?  While I somehow haven’t set my PVR to tape it, I did find a few episodes on Rogers on Demand last weekend.  When in one home she didn’t have the budget to install hardwood floors throughout, she installed it on one wall instead.  I love how it turned out!

Finally, in the article “Tricks of the Trade” in the February House and Home magazine, they described how to get the look of large traditional millwork without the cost and work of ripping out your existing baseboards.  Simply add a bevelled base cap 1 or 2 inches above what’s already there and paint it out! I couldn’t find the House and Home feature on the Internet but I did find this tutorial from Home Depot.

Have a great weekend!
