		<description><![CDATA[You can buy chalkboard paint in green or black, but why limit yourself to those scholastic-y colours? Maybe you want to make a chalkboard wall in the kitchen for a family communication center, or maybe you&#39;re making a kids&#39; art table like this... ...and it would be fun to use a colour other than black or green.  So get a quart size can of flat paint in any shade you like (I used Olympic Premium Zero VOC because it dries in an hour, has no odour and carries a lifetime warranty) and pour the amount of paint you&#39;ll need into a separate container. Then add unsanded grout powder (available in the tile aisle) with the ratio of 1 rounded tablespoon of unsanded grout to 1 cup of flat paint. Stir it up well and then roll out 2 or 3 coats on the surface you want to transform into a chalkboard. You can use a hair dryer to speed up the drying time if you&#39;re rushed. Cool eh?  ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometimes, I like to imagine myself in a dramatic scene from a black and white movie..."Dahling, would you be a dear and fetch me my dressing gown..." If there is one thing I have learned from old movies, it is that every glamorous lady needs a folding screen for her boudoir.

Folding screens are fantastic for adding a pop of color and pattern to any room. They make great room dividers or clever junk hiders. While in my film-fueled fantasies they are made of satin and are strewn with long gloves and floor-length, feather-hemmed nighties, the reality is folding screens can be wonderfully functional and modern if you make them yourself.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Once your fabric is traced and cut, you can begin stapling. Make sure you have placed your foam as you want it in the center of the board. You will want the pieces in this order: 1. Fabric face down on the table, 2. foam, 3. board. You will be stapling from the top. Always a good idea to make sure you work on a surface you don't mind getting "antiqued" - I have stapled into my table inadvertently more times than I would like to admit!]]></description>

Sometimes just setting up an area to be creative is as simple as setting up a desk with smart storage (and plugging in your headphones or earplugs if you have boisterous, energetic kids like I do!) Here are some ways to maximize space and create a craft area with style that inspires you!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The artwork and accessories she sells in her store are unique and exploding with story... like things you'd discover traveling the world. The furniture was also amazing. As I explored the textures, fabrics I got a sense for what makes these pieces feel so much more luxurious than the pillows and slipcovers I make at home.
These pieces seem to take notes from fashion...particularly from the world of high-end denim. If you have ever seen the painstaking careful "destruction and deconstruction" that happens with every pair of expensive jeans you know what I'm talking about. The fabric is wrinkled and pressed with a blazing hot iron, worn with sandpaper, ripped, torn, and otherwise abused to look like it has been around forever. I wondered, how can I use these methods to make my home sewing projects look more like these gorgeous things? Let's talk about how to use these principles to make home made pillow covers that have high end style.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[About a year ago,  I was looking for a new bed and realize that I wanted something that was cushy stylish and customizable.  After searching and shopping for a while and looking at the construction of a lot of the available headboards and beds, I decided to make my own.  Most of them seem to be constructed in a similar way they had three elements: a wood frame, foam padding from various thicknesses, and a fabric cover.  Easy right?  Actually it's not that hard and not too expensive either!]]></description>
