I’m currently working on several projects to finish the kids’ spaces, and one of the items I decided to make is pom-pom garland. DIY Pom-pom garland is relatively easy to make since it requires minimal supplies. Garlands are also a great choice for themed parties or decorating the house year-round.

Classic & Simple Christmas Fireplace Decor

Bar carts can be a great way to add style to your home without breaking the bank. After coming across several options in my day-to-day activities, I knew I wanted either a gold/brass or rattan cart.
