Before and After: Boring China Cabinet to Fabulous Bookcase
Su Casa member LittleLeo recently transformed a dated china cabinet into a fabulous bookcase:
We inherited this piece from a friend who was getting a new dining room set. My husband couldn't understand why I wanted the cabinet and not the dining table too. I explained I had a vision for my home office.
Hallway "Wall of Sound"
...Pattern-paint seems to have become a reoccurring and inexpensive design element of our home. Our first foray into the field was a smaller wall at the end of our hallway. We choose this wall for three reasons; time, space…and exit strategy…in the likely case that we had failed miserably, the white-out process would have been a snap!
My Fab New Apartment!
I've finally settled into my West L.A. apartment and I love it! Ilove everything about my building (especially since they are in the middle of installing hardwood floors in all the hallways), my neighborhood, and my unique little unit. I believe the building has Spanish influenced architecture- as do most socal buildings- because of the rounded doorways and windows.

DIY jewelry tree branch
A lot of my design inspiration comes from nature, and tree branches are the easiest way to bring earthy elements to your home. West elm has jumped on this bandwagon, along with a hand full of other retailers. (click to enlarge my inspiration board below)
I am a HUGE accessories freak.

Solution for my Overcrowded Closet
My Bags
I recently switched rooms with my sister (I still live at home!) and while the room itself is bigger, I lost some closet space in the deal. My bags were literally falling out of my closet and hanging off of my bookcase. I had no idea what I was going to do with them until I got the new ikea catalogue in the mail.
Before and After DIY: Our Patio
Before
05/24/2008: The project began with DC cleaning and stripping the cement patio.
After
06/15/2008: The project is 100% complete and utilizes mostly reclaimed, reused, and/or repurposed articles from the late 1940s - 1950s.
I am absolutely delighted with this space.
DIY: Refine, Reuse and Recycle: Welcome to a small corner of my studio
Once again, I'm inspired by a recent Casa post to share a little corner of my space with you. The artists in this space did such a wonderful job creating a home and working studio. But what I found particularly intriguing was the light in the kitchen.
