Want to know a clever trick I used to make my ottoman look like a gorgeous oversized ottoman, like the ones you see at fancy restaurants or hotels? Well my trick is to just stick 2 rectangle ottomans next to one another. Then just cover up the seem with a large blanket. Drape it from one corner of the 2 ottomans to the other kitty corner of the ottomans. Viola! You have a gorgeous oversized ottoman. You can top it of with a nice piece on top of the blanket. People will ask you where you found a huge ottoman like that and only you will know the secret!

I had an old kitchen table that I was going to get rid of because I had a new table coming. My old table was still cute, but small. I sometimes get attached to my furniture and have a hard time giving it away. So, I thought, hmmmm, what can I do with this table? If I put it outside the sun would ruin it because it is wood. I then noticed in my kitchen I had some extra space under my two windows. I figured I could cut my old table in half, length wise, and make it into two make-shift buffet tables. So we did just that. We used “L” brackets to attach the table to the wall from underneath the table. I get so many compliments on it and it is perfect for entertaining and using as a buffet table. A very simple idea that makes a huge statement and super functional.

I just got a new coffee table and want to get rid of my old one. I am thinking I will do the same thing (cut it in half) and use it as a small table in one of my children’s bedroom. Once you start, the possibilities are endless.
