How-To: Curtain a Room For Under $20
The other day, I tweeted about the awesome sale Ikea was having on some of its fabric. We're talking 99 cents a yard here, people! That is really, really cheap.
$5 Table + Beautiful CA Day = Perfection
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member malvarez from the Su Casa group:
I spotted this table at a "Daily Garage Sale" where one of our local storage units puts all of their abandoned units "stuff" on display under a tent in lieu of public auctions. I happened to find this adorable table amongst other chairs, tables and cabinets. I thought to myself FIVE DOLLARS!?
Roundup: Easy Dresser DIYs
I recently bought a dresser off of Craigslist to use in my soon-to-arrive babe's nursery. The dresser is solid oak, over 100 years old, and in great shape. However, I'm looking to add a little oomph to the dresser's look.
DIY: Wine Shelf
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member Pretty Little Things from the Su Casa group:
Moving in to my new apartment I realized that I needed a space for my gazillion wine glasses ( I swear when you're in your 20s this must be like the default gift for people!). Well in searching for a solution I came up with this; an old soda crate turned into wine storage, and easily! I just took some vintage soda crates my mom has and bought an under the cabinet wine rack, installed it, and voila.
Our Bubble Dream Breakfast Nook
Here's a post from CasaSugar Community member lioness3262 from the Su Casa group:
I felt in the morning I wanted an area that awakened our family's senses visually. So I decided to do a bubble dream mural of orange, purple, royal blue, periwinkle and silver. Plus it helps my 17-month-old daughter recite her colors in a fun way while eating her oatmeal!!!

DIY: Sweater Blanket
Ecofabulous recently featured Dutch company Ladak’s sustainable, handmade blankets, which are crafted from recycled sweaters, jeans, and blankets, and embellished with ribbon and fabric. As you can see, the blankets are absolutely lovely, and have a romantic, gypsy vibe to them.
You can find out where to buy one of these blankets here, but if you have basic sewing skills, you can craft something similar using old sweaters.
