From House to Home 8/22/07

This week's tips:

Add a chair rail as an interesting architectural element that extends from the living room through the dining room to set off an ever-changing photography collection.
Even in the winter, stay active in your garden--whether to weed, mulch, or plant. Get inspired by taking a stroll in a nearby botanical garden to see what new flower colors are available and how different plant materials are mixed.
Hang wire or woven baskets as whimsical sculptures not only in a kitchen, but also in a family room or hall.
Look for an inexpensive sculptural floor lamp. The incandescent light will give the entire room a warm glow. Sconces can add depth to a room, too.
Redo a table top with a mosaic of broken china or tile to create an old-fashioned ceramic effect.
