I have a desk that matched my bedroom set, but the top has a lot of nicks and small holes (from pencils, etc), what can I do to make my writing surface smoother? I can't sand and refinish, because the stain is hard to match. Any ideas?


Answer
If you cant sand, hmmm.... you could get a glass cover, its a sheet of glass that goes on the top of desks tables etc. and put pictures under it all over like a collage to cover the holes. glass will protect pictures, pictures will cover holes.

anyone have decorating ideas to give a bedroom an autumn theme?

i think it's about time i redecorated! any tips on how to create an autumnal atmosphere in a bedroom?


Answer
Think deep crimson reds, fern greens and yellow squash......
Change your wall color to a clay beige in a rich medium shade. Check out comforter/bedspread sets in predominantly crimson. Accent with the green and gold.

Go out in the fall and "hunt down" different colors and types of leaves. Press them between pages of a large book. In the meantime buy a poster frame kit from Joann's or Michael's (should have backing board, plexiglass and frame edges and then make a really cool collage with the leaves and glue them onto the backing board with a glue stick and frame for the wall. Nice "original" artwork and Mother Nature helped!

You can also look for some inexpensive fabric and cover an inexpensive cork board with the fabric for a coordinating message/noteboard for your room.

Think about spray painting a lamp shade you already have for a different look and glue roping at the top and bottom of shade to change it. You can also spray paint the base of the lamp to match as well as your waste basket, if you have one in your room.

Change your dresser knobs with "leaves" that you can purchase at Home Depot or Lowe's and if you have an attached mirror to your dresser or no mirror at all, go out to the thrift/consignment shops and find a new one that can be mounted to the wall above your dresser for a totally different look. Clear the top of your dresser off completely and add a wooden tray, with pebbles layered on it, and then add clear or smoked glass votive holders and candles in a uniform row. This will look sleek and very chic!

Good luck!
