Item: Drawer Organizer
Cost: $5 – $10

Alright ladies, it’s time to face the giants…er, the cosmetic drawer. For most of us, over time, that particular drawer becomes such a mess that it’s hard to even look in it. But we’re going to change all that.

For this week’s “Get Organized” we’re going to use a simple, inexpensive tool to get (and keep) you organized. I’m suggesting that you go out and purchase a drawer organizer. Read the rest of this entry »

Pretty pipes

Paint exposed PVC pipe a copper color.

Item: Copper paint
Cost: $10

I loved this idea the first time I saw it. You see, I have an affinity for exposed ceiling beams, exposed fixtures, and, of course, exposed copper pipes. Instead of boxing these things in, leaving them exposed seems to bring a much more airy, open feel to your space. But these days it’s much easier and more affordable to use simple PVC pipes for indoor plumbing.

That’s why this idea caught me. If you live in a house with exposed PVC pipes in your bathroom, you could make a sink skirt (a lot of people do, and for some it fits their home; for me, it wouldn’t), or you could take a quart of copper-colored paint and make your pipes pretty =).

Pure Relaxation…

Items: bathtub tray
Cost: $30


The moment I saw this bathtub tray, I was in love. What could possibly be better than reading and sipping wine while soaking in a luxurious bubble bath? It’s the ultimate relaxation for body, mind, and soul. I first saw the tray at a local Bed, Bath and Beyond. When I got home and researched it online, I found that it can be purchased by a number of retailers. This one is made of bamboo and has a book stand, wine holder, and soap/loofah/candle holder. Heaven!

Dynamic-living.com has a good price on it.
