Wall art can add fun layers to your design! Not everyone likes to go to the extent and investment {and mess} of wallpaper, but if you can find a way to pull it off to look like wallpaper, why not! Paint is one of your most simple investments and in time if you are ready for a change, it's not too hard to change it up!

In my searches, I'm finding all types of layers! It's about green, texture, pine cones, white, colorful fruits, lights.....you name it! It's that outdoor feeling you get when you step outside and take a deep breath of cool fresh air. If you could turn that into a visual in your home, it would look very earthy and organic for the winter time.
These Winter Decor Board selections have a lot of great ideas. Hopefully as you start to decorate for the New Year and give your spaces a new do, something will catch your eye and inspire you for a nice, timely redesign for the winter season! ~Mindy

The blackboard wall! We used our first one in our son's room in 2005. We bought a can of chalkboard paint from Lowes, taped off a rectangle on the wall, let it dry, and by day's end, he was ready to chalk away!
The downside is the dust gets basically everywhere and the chalk can be hard to clean up, but if used in the right spot, it's a great idea! There are TONS more examples on this link that we found on Pinterest!
This can work on walls in basically any room, doors, cabinets, in picture frames, appliances, you name it! Chalk away!

What could an old pallet be used for? This site we found has 35 great uses around the home with recycled pallets!
This is in one of our own kid's bedrooms. We used 5 pallets per bed. Spray painted each of them flat black and then used 4 on the base and one on the headboard. We only put the mattress down and did away with the box springs, but you can choose either way. The kids love it. The only down side is that sometimes you accidentally kick the pallet when walking by and that does not feel so good! Great, near-next-to-nothing cost for sure!

Add some layers to your home's design by painting and stenciling the backdrop of a bookshelf!
-Measure and cut card board or foam board to the opening sizes
-Paint with your color of choice
-Add a stencil to the top to layer in an additional color and a design
-You could also put wall paper on card board in lieu of paint and have an even more intricate design
-Dry, then insert and decorate
-We like that this is removable and you can change it with the seasons

Organization and Storage! You can never have too much of it! Use anything from old fruit boxes to ladders to lockers, ball jars and more to get your space organized.
