I found the most beautiful apothecary jar at a garage sale and want to use it as decor in my cottage style house. It is about a 2 gallon size and I thought of a terrarium but I DO NOT have a green thumb so that is out. I would love some suggestions as to how to use it. Bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, give me some ideas. Thanks!

Answer
If you are near a Crate and Barrel store they are doing beautiful terrariums with fake plants - so if you like that look go with the silk looking plants and no worries about not being a green thumb.
I see it more as a bathroom or kitchen accessory.
Bathroom on the corner of the counter - if you have the space - on the floor on top of small table, maybe silk wreath wrapped around the base. Or fill it partially with sea glass, or small soaps, or seashells?
Kitchen again on the counter or if you have the room on a high shelf to show it off - consider filling with something interesting - although it is not necessary, the jar is probably beautiful enough.

Where's a place where I can find cute teen bedroom decor for a cheap price?

Genevieve

I'm looking for basically everything: bedding, beds, desks, chairs, dressers, accessories, ect. I LOVE all the furniture from PB Teen, but it's all so expensive. I think I might try ebay or amazon or some site like that. Do you know any other good sites?

Answer
I love IKEA for kids bedrooms, but being the time of year that it is and that you are looking for a room for a teen, I would check out Target. With kids going back to school and going to college I've noticed some great deals on bedding sets, with cooresponding organization items. I have bought things on Walmart.com for my sons room as well, I just purchased a nice headboard, dresser and side table from Walmart.com and had it shipped site to store and it cost me around $259 total with tax. They had a matching desk, but I didn't get it because we have an office in our house.

J

I'm getting married next month and my fiance is a huge Beatles fan. For a grooms cake, we're doing Beatles cupcakes and I'm trying to come up with ideas of how to decorate the table that they will sit on. Thanks!

Answer
Hang a big banner....titled "She Loves You...yeah, yeah yeah!" :D then another one " And I Love Her..."

Beatle wigs for all the main guys at the table...Lennon eyeglasses (if nothing else, make a vignette to do as a centerpiece)

Make the table like Abbey Road...black with 4 strips of white running down it. Set it up with psychedelic plates, etc.

"Strawberry Fields" cocktails
If sub sandwiches are served: "Yellow Submarine"s call them

Feature song titles posted as well as pictures of the Fab 4...got any Lava lamps to set around?
EDITING>>>>OOPS ;)
I read your question wrong: so ignore parts of this answer...you want to know decor because just the cake is sitting on the table! I thought it was a party for the guys...lol.....but still...can do the Abbey Road and psychedelic accessories to make it stand out.

Is there an onine interactive tool for decorating tables for my wedding reception?

Jennifer B

Hoping someone can help. I am trying to coordinate color and we what looks best together. Without buying a few tables, tons of different linen colors and patterns along with chair covers and setting up in my living room, is there someone online I can do this? You know, like when people try new haircuts online, or on paint websites where they can find a room like thiers and try different colors. Thanks so much in advance!!

Answer
DON'T DO IT GIRL! There may be options like this but it will NEVER look like what you expect. There are literally hundreds of colors and patterns available and the look changes based on pattern, lighting and accessories not to mention the surrounding decor of the room you use. Take an afternoon and visit a couple rental companies that provide the full gamut of linens, tables and chairs, plates, etc. You can spend hours in their showroom playing with color and style combinations until you find what looks perfect. They will also help you with sizes since many only come in certain sizes. You may fall in love with a linen for a round table that only comes square! This is something you simply MUST do in person. Good Luck
