Ask Casa: What to Do About Burgundy
Su Casa member Pretty Little Things got this overstuffed burgundy chenille burgundy chair at a garage sale for only $50. She wants to integrate it into her awesome new apartment, but her "theoretical color scheme involves grays, golds, whites, neutrals, dark wood, no burgundy!"

Home Library: Found Style
Sometimes I like to revisit books that may be oldies but are definitely goodies, like Amy and David Butler's Found Style, published back in 2003. Since it's also prime season for antiquing and garage sales, it seemed only appropriate to introduce you all to a book that offers sensible, inspired advice on integrating "found" objects into your home. Amy Butler, whose fabric designs I love, brilliantly combines garage sale $1 finds with midcentury furniture, Pottery Barn accessories, and practical, Ikea pieces in this book.

Before and After: A Pretty Change For These Tables
I love searching garage sales for furniture finds, and these bedside tables are a great example of the kind of diamond-in-the-rough treasure you're likely to find at a sale. While these bedside tables are pleasant, they're definitely not spectacular — at least not yet. They do, however, have clean, modern lines, and definitely show potential.

How-To: Create a Craft Corner
A good friend of mine just sent me photos of her new house in Los Angeles, and I was excited to see that she made room for a craft corner. My pal loves to craft and sew, and now she has an established space for her handiwork (which is more than I can say for my own house).
There are many advantages to maintaining a permanent space for your crafting or sewing hobby.
