PrintHow to hide an air conditioner and dress up a chair back
Design ideas for hiding an air-conditioner window unit and adding a little drama to chair covers.
Our picks to click this week:
• Blogger Bossy Color (www.bossycolorblog.blogspot.com) offers a clean and clever way to conceal unsightly air-conditioning window units.
• Girl Meets Glamour (www.girlmeetsglamour.blogspot.com) encourages readers to start paying more attention to the backs of chairs rather than focusing on just the fronts. Covering backs in a different fabric from the front is a fun way to liven things up in a room, the blogger says, especially in a dining room where the chair backs are on constant display. Inspirational photos included.
