Merry Christmas! Centerpiece.
Merry Christmas! Are you having the family over for a Christmas brunch or dinner, and need to find the perfect centerpiece A.S.A.P., with a small budget? No problem! If you read the post about the vases, the rocks, and the flower, if you didn't read it, read it! Well, that is the type of vase you are going to use (a clear vase, that is pretty tall, but not to tall.) go to a dollar tree, or a all-a-dollar and by CHEAP Christmas tree ornaments (big or small it doesn't matter) then fill the vase to the very top. and now you have a beautiful centerpiece.

beach room/bathroom
Hi! I am going to show you a beach themed room & bathroom. start with a turquoise paint
(perferbably Behr Jamacin sea. after the wall(s) are painted, start working with the door, if you would like you cna remove the door and hang some grass, like on a grass skirt. if desired you can add some cut outs of surfboards that stick to the wall, or even put real surfboards on the wall. for the bed, fine Koa wood looks really nice in a beach themed room, it gives it a reall beach feel. for a little decoration, you can get a vase (see modern picture) put real sand or bread crumbs, go to your local crafts store, and bye some seashells. put the bread crumbs or sand in the vase, then put sea shells in. now you have the perfect bedroom!
For a beach themed bathroom, you need a lighter blue paint (perferably Behr ice flower) after you finish painting you wall(s), add some pictures with beach feel to them. if your bathroom has a shower make sure your shower curtains have a beach themed picture on them. for a decoration use the same one as the bedroom. to add an extra touch get a sea breeze air freshner. thats it for today! goodnight!
