Decoration/Paint Ideas Please!!?
'tis grace
I'm moving into my first apartment (yay!) and I need some advice...I have a lot of pictures that I don't want to tape to my wall like a seventeen-year-old girl would...but how can I put them up without being cluttered or tacky? Also, I have no idea what to do for paint...I don't want blue, pink, or red...
I'm twenty and am ready for a big kid look for my room! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Answer
If they're actual photographs, then buy a set of frames at your craft store or target, walmart, kohls, etc. and just hang them up on the wall. Something that looks really polished is having black and white pictures in a black frame, they really can make a room look very nice.
If these are pictures you cut out from a magazine, then make a collage of them and frame them in a 9 x 13 (or larger!) frame. Hang it above your bed or somewhere in your room.
For paint ideas I suggest light and neutral. You can always do two tones too. For example a light beige color could go on all of you're living area walls-- except one. Using your paint sample, select the next color up (or darker) and paint it on the center, farthest wall. This can add depth to a room. Make sure your ceilings are painted white also. Adding a paint border around the top of a room can also make it feel bigger. Use a lighter shade on the border, and the darker shade on the rest of the wall.
Beige isn't the only color you're limited too. Light purples can look very classy when off set with the right furniture and accessories. Example-- black accessories look really nice with a light purple room! In you're bedroom though, I would suggest either white furniture or wood, save the black for you're living area. Don't do ALL black of course, like a black couch is not good. But frames, coffee tables, etc, is good. A light, neutral green, almost tannish, looks nice in most kitchens. (Unless you happen to have blue counter tops or something like that)
Finally, a grayish blue is a color I really like. It looks great in any room and is easy to coordinate with other colors.

Need ideas of kid items to sell at a craft show?

I am having a booth at our local craft show. me and a friend are selling bows, bow holders, burp cloths, headbands, and pacifier holder. I need a few more ideas for boys or something that can be unisex. Does anyone know of anything I might can buy in bulk and resale or something that I might can make that isn't too pricey and complicated?
Answer
You should make something like this - Dapper Snapper - basically you put it through the belt loops to tighten the waist on pants for your children that are too big:
http://www.amazon.com/Dapper-Snapper-Baby-Toddler-Adjustable/dp/B003IXVOF6/ref=pd_sbs_a_3
I made a few in fun patterns for our twins - similar to how you would make a pacifier clip.
Other things that we have seen at craft shows are signs that you can hang in a child's bedroom with their name on it, personalized Christmas ornaments, bibs etc . . .
