DIY Projects - Shelves

I love shelves. I think they are very usefull and one of the simplest projects for home decor. Shelves have always been handy but I'm finding them to be very trendy lately as well. Here are some very inspirational pics I've gathered with excellent ideas for diy shelving. It's all about using what you've got, baby. ;)

A few boxes are all it takes for this cute mudroom, via apartment therapy.

 

Interesting use of pallets, as seen in lubird baby.

Box wines look so different when using gift-wrap paper. These are via design sponge.

 

Cin decor also shares wine box ideas.

You could also use old drawers. I love how be home made used them in her shop.

 

And last, but definitely not least, the cutest and most original idea, by sas interiors showing almost any object is good enough for shelves. Gotta love it if you have kids in the house.

 

So let there be no excuse, this weekend you can make your very own and simple shelves. Please share with us if you try!

A great way to start the day for me would be by having a nice breakfast in a gourgeous kitchen banquette. I'm so in love with these little nooks. I find them romantic and just amazing. They're an excellent way to save space if you have a tiny home, with sofas or built-ins. They all look incredible to me, do you agree?

Have a beautiful and inspired day :)

One of my all-time favorite colors is blue. I love its range of tones, from deep, ocean blue, to aqua. While turquoise is still one of my top ranked, I've come to realize that for my home walls I like having a softer tone, one that doesn't steal attention from the decor, but instead, enhances it. And that's where Powder Blue comes handy. I love it. I even love its name. It is an idillic color because it combines blue's natural serenity with gray's neutrality. Plus, it looks amazing in any room!
Actually, I'm thinking about using powder blue for one of my rooms at home. Can you tell which one it is?

Hoping your week is going great!

Gorgeous home in Spanish Mediterranean

I have no words to describe this perfect home. I love how it's casual, open, with amazing views, and a great mix of rustic and modern. I'm also in love with all the textures. Just a perfect home for the weekend.

In other news, tomorrow I go back to my woodshop class... so excited!

Covet Garden

 

I'm so loving the latest issue of Covet Garden magazine. This time, they share the beautiful home of a creative couple, Tara and Terry, and it shows. I love its aesthetics, so clean, so liveable. I especially love the bookshelf and the bathroom! Although the furniture in their kitchen is lovely.

Something I love about Covet Garden is that they show real homes, not styled by interior decorators. It gives an insight on beautiful homes, and a much more personal style. It makes me remind myself that my dream home is possible.

All pics, by Covet Garden, of course.

On other stuff, I need your help! I'm planning changes on the blog's layout and design, so I'd really appreciate all comments and ideas that could help you like Casa Haus better.
Please share!

Have a beautiful day! =)

I love how many options we have nowadays for living room tables. No more fixed sets, but instead, we have the possibility of arranging different kinds of tables in the same room, and achieving great results! You can mix and match colors, materials, and shapes, as long as it coordinates with the rest of the furniture.

Which is your favorite?
