Vacation Photos

All those pictures you took deserve a little more attention than they’re getting tucked away in your iPhoto Library. Take a few of your favorites from one setting (like three different shots of a beach scene) and make canvas prints with CanvasPop (http://www.canvaspop.com). Then hang them above your bed for personalized bedroom art.

Books

The key to making sure your massive book collection doesn’t overwhelm a room is to display your tomes on the right bookshelf. A clean, white color palette like this one looks airy and modern. Also, try using the shelf as a room divider instead of just standing it against a wall -- the bookcase in this pic separates the couple’s living room from their bedroom.
