Home : Shelf Lining

Fabric, wrapping paper, and wallpaper - what do they all have in common?  They've all been used to line drawers.

While I love the idea of dazzling your drawers and giving them a personal touch with liner paper, lets face it - it's so incredibly difficult to find pretty liner paper.  I've searched high and low for attractive liner paper and I always end up empty handed.

{Truth be told, I saw this on pinterest and was shocked - it's the only cute lining paper I've seen, but it could easily get pricey trying to line an entire set of drawers @ $25/6 pieces.} 

I admire my girlfriends who modpodge fabric or wrapping paper to the bottom of their drawers, but I don't have the time or desire to deal with the mess of all that.

My favorite method?  Wallpaper.

It's thick enough, sturdy enough and comes in an array of beautiful designs.  And it's not impossible to find a bargain if you have a lot of lining to do.

I've seen tutorials on using spray adhesive, but I recently read that double sided tape does the job just fine.  So girlfriend, find yourself a drawer that needs lining.  Find a chic wallpaper print and get to work!  Those drawers are just dying for a facelift!

Fashion Friday : Nautical Prints for Summer

Hi All!

Jamie here from FashionistaMusings with your dose of Friday Fashion.

With Memorial Day behind us and the weather warming up for summer, our wardrobes become lighter and more colorful. Breathable fabrics, such as linen and cotton, and light reflecting colors allow us to enjoy the ever-rising temperatures without sweltering. Nautical Prints are the perfect combination of backyard summer Bar-B-Q meets Yacht Club chic. Classic Navy and White horizontal stripes can be paired with a wide range of colors including Red, Grey and Brown.

This Theory Striped Maxi dress with chunky wood jewelry and leather wedges paired with minimal makeup can be worn to brunch, an afternoon picnic in the park or a stroll through town.

Buy a Navy and White Striped Nautical Blouse and pair with pieces from your existing wardrobe for an instant summer update! White Jeans, a Red Skirt, Blue Jean Cut-Offs… the possibilities are endless.

Wedges are a summer wardrobe staple. Update your current shoe collection with a pair of nautical themed wedges (such as this pair from the Jessica Simpson Collection) for a water-ready look that is feminine and crisp.

For those of you who desire to try the nautical look without jumping into the water head first, try a Sailor themed manicure. Start with Navy nailpolish. Add thin white stripes. Finish with a Red heart for the extra touch of sparkle.

Do you love nautical prints? If so, how are you incorporating them into your wardrobe?

Happy Weekend!

Bathroom Scale Makeover....

I saw this post in my blog feed today from Beach Vintage and thought it was a clever little diy project.  I couldn't help but share.  It's just your regular ol' bathroom scale, covered in a beautiful oil cloth print.  Visit the link for a discount on your oil cloth for your own scale makeover.  :)  I'll have to give my scale some attention in the very near future.

Until then, I will return to PPS next week after "birthday weekend" {as my husband calls it}.  Hope you have a lovely weekend!
