First let me thank Maria Elena at Our Home Away From Home.  She has some beautiful house tour pictures and decorating ideas.

I wish I had such an elegant bathroom!

She has such soothing colors in her bedroom seating area.

Beautiful Tablescape!

Second, I'd like to thank ARod at Makin My Apartment My Home.  She has some cute before and after projects and thrifty finds on her site.

Here she jazzed up an old serving cart.
