Get an old engine block clean it up then have tempered glass cut to fit on top you'll have a nice coffee table May not go with the engine block,  but that's a great idea for a coffee table with maybe a large piece of drift wood....

HUmm try a Tuesday Morning if you have them there or Big lots even for pictures even wicker small wicker fans make good decorations you can spray paint them to the color you desire. I even re-spray paint vases in the same way shsh I have been known to do the same thing with the small trash cans for the bathroom why buy another color for $6-$15 when a $1.99 can of paint will do it for ya. 
Great idea!! |

Sounds like you are "cleaning house" in more ways than one! How exciting for you. 
I know that after my divorce I re-created myself, casting aside the old me and the person others wanted me to be. I found a style that suited my tastes and my life. I entertain alot so that was a factor, and I wanted my home to be a comfortable safe-haven for me, my kids, and all who enter...getting them to leave is another story! I used alot of earthtones, with an occasional splash of color to keep things interesting, but the special touches I ended up with was a combination of my family history and the person I've become. When people leave my house they have a better sense of who I am, and I like that. The guest room has a lighthouse theme, with a collection of sea shells and art we'd gathered on past vacation, and a sprinkling of family photo's in shell-covered frames. Even the bookcase and night stand look like lighthouses and old sea trunks(courtesy of Hobby Lobby!) Really fun to decorate and my friends & family love staying in that room! Whatever you decide...have fun and be yourself! I acutally have a great collection of lighthouses that stem back to when I lived in Maine when I got to see a few of them. I find them fascinating. Thanks for the tips, you home sounds warm and cozy and inviting!
Thank you ~ I hope so. Have fun decorating...and bust out those lighthouses!  The show "Design on a Dime" on HGTV is a great place to get ideas...or the Home & Garden website!

I'm in the middle of the 1 millionth move I've made in my life.  So, I'm lookin at my stuff, the things I used to decorate with, pictures and things and realize they don't suit me at all. Stuff I've been draggin' around and using for years, Home Interior stuff my sister gave me. I don't even like Home Interior, never did, why I ever started using the stuff is beyond me. Decided last night I was getting rid of it all and completely changing things. So, now I need some fresh new ideas for decorating, got any ideas? They should not include plastic or silk flowers of any kind and no butterflies or talkin fish I already started in my bathroom. Bought a new shower curtain, anyone know where I can find purple bath rugs?!
Good for you! I need to do the same...start new!

Anyhow you can find a lot of good & differant ideas through Amazon.com......just be careful of their shipping expenses if you do order over the net. |

Lots of great ideas. Gonna go start at the used furniture shop here, they always have some unusual things in there...and maybe hit a couple of garage sales too....one person's trash is another person's treasure...
