I'm a big fan of double duty items...stylish and practical!

I always use bookends as they keep the books aligned yet let me safely add mementos in the free space.

Pot racks are very helpful (and stylish accessories for your home).

I just loved loved and loved this... The way you have explained is simply awesome!!! I have a garden too and I have always loved to do this al though I didn't have an idea how to do it. Well... after reading this, I have got an idea... But... my husband is the last person to do this. hehe. He is very nice and caring... but it is very difficult to make him accept to do certain things. BTW does this pond cost much?? How about the maintenance?? Is it tough? I am scared of snakes and stuff. Please let me know if we need to take great care in maintaining the pond and also from snakes visiting then lol!!! Sorry I am totally naive about these things. It would be much appreciated if you can give me further infos that would help me! Thanks!

Very helpful! I am considering installing a small pond garden for the toads. (Yes, toads. Although they may not live in the water like frogs, they do reproduce in the water.) Of course, the birds and people will be welcome to enjoy it, too!

I like this idea. Thanks!

Nice article.

Very good article. Refreshing!

Very nice article. It makes a huge switch from a crammed bookshelf to a pleasant decorative look.

Great ideas. I can not stand a cluttered book shelf. My eyes need a break every now and then.
