I've only ever used a door drape (I guess they're technically portieres but I'm a simple girl so door drape works for me) on a closet,but I've always been intrigued by them. I love that they're a little unexpected and work great for softening a doorway and adding texture. Depending on your fabric, of course, they can also add additional color and pattern to the room. Seeing the photo above from Better Homes and Garden's "Wool Projects To Warm Up Your Home" reminded me of the idea, so I decided to do a post on it. I wanted to include the example below from Better Homes and Garden's "Dress a Door In a Drape" so that you could see how, when hung this way, you still see the kitchen but the drape actually attracts your attention and stops your eye from really focusing on the room beyond.
 Have you ever used door drapes? If not, do you like the idea? Where would use this type of treatment in your home?
Did you noticed the dog silhouette art just beyond the drape in the photo at the beginning of this post? It can also be found at bhg.com.
Another great silhouette art example is from Karli at Rocky Bella. She recently created a silhouette art display in her entryway. The cute art that you see below is just one example. Didn't she do a great job? Go to her site to see the whole display and tutorial.
 More table posts (side/end tables and nightstands) coming next week but I wanted to mix it up a bit in between.oh. and there's a giveaway here on Monday. :-)

Como práctica oriental que explota y encausa la energía del ambiente, el Feng Shui nos ofrece consejos de gran utilidad para alcanzar el equilibrio armónico entre nosotros y lo que nos rodea. Con mayor razón al interior de nuestro hogar, que es el espacio que construimos en base a nuestro estilo y que debería servirnos de refugio y despeje ante los elementos negativos de fuera.
En la imagen vemos cómo se ha decorado un comedor de una manera muy simple, pero elegante. La ambientación de Halloween la brindan las coronas hechas en casa y las calabazas colocadas en la mesa. Estas calabazas pueden ser reales, así como de plástico o en forma de velas.
En la imagen vemos la vajilla de Halloween (platos y tazas con diseños de calavera impresos), las servilletas son naranjas, otros elementos son negros, como las velas, y los objetos que vemos, también con calaveras, son los adornos, los cojines y los corchos de las botellas.

 Hope you're having an awesome day! If you're not, MAKE it awesome! :-)



 My husband likes to hunt and fish, so in my old house I did a bathroom downstairs in that theme. I had two bath towels hung side by side on the towel bar and used twine to tie the towels and hung large wooden bobbers from them.
