crafty decorating ideas

I've been inspired by all kinds of alternative ways to decorate these days... which is perfect, since I just moved to a new apartment in the East Village, and it is looking rather sparse. Here are a few things I've learned...


Instead of a buying headboard, why not drape a printed cloth or scarf?


Instead of buying prints, why not make one yourself?


Instead of splurging on a nightstand, why not stack up some books?

Love great decor - especially when it's on the cheap!
