Apartment Therapy

Perhaps my current obsession with Apartment Therapy has something to do with my rather morose mood - because nothing makes me happier than DIY lampshades and quirky knickknacks.  I've been particularly fond of pale walls and furniture, blending together in a beige haze.  Salmon and mustard tinted accessories aside.

Unfortunately, I've put myself on a rather stringent budget due to economic hardship, so there's been little room for retail therapy.  It's a good thing that I can turn most junk into an interesting conversation piece.

I'm hoping to take some decent pictures of what I've been up to by tomorrow.  I still have a bedroom overhaul to complete, included mattress swapping, so we'll see how it goes.

Here are a few ideas that I really 'dig' -
