"Romance" a cheerless table with miniature Cristmas lights while you wait to buy that perfect accent lamp. Twine a string of white miniature tree lights around a white wreath. Plant a plant inside the wreath and plug in the magic.
Place can lights below a glass coffee table. behind a sofa, or behind a plant to make each a standout.
Direct a spotlight on a group of small objects to enjoy the light and shadow display they create. Use clamp-on lamps or track lights. For extra brilliance on walls and furniturre, cash in on a color. It works wonders with special painted effects.
STRIPE A WALL-with flast latex paint when you can't buy wall coverings. Using a level., mark off the lines with painting tape and paint alternating colors between the tape.
SPONGE A CHAIR-with latex enamel paint to revitalize a secondhand find. Brush on a first coat of a brilliant color and allow it to dry overnight. With a natural sponge and latex paint, dab a lighter color over the first coat.
I hope someone enjoys these ideas.
