Shelving
Dressy Shelves
For a dressy look, cut sheer fabric in a half circle and hem the edge. Using a hot glue gun, attach small silk leaves (which can be found at any fabric store) to the hem of the skirt. Drape fabric over a sconce. To finish, repeat the leafy theme by attaching the same leaves to the branches and place in a vase on the shelf.
Stacking Shelves
If one shelf is nice, several can be wonderful! Use wood blocks or accessories from old cabinets and headboards, or any pieces lying about that you find architecturally appealing. Paint them white. Invert the painted pieces and attach shelf. To add interest, trim each shelf differently, using a hot glue gun to add lace edging, teardrop crystals, antique buttons, etc.
Picture Frame Shelf
To use picture frames to make shelves, first screw a thin strip of wood to the wall to create
a supporting ledge for the back of the glass shelf. The picture frames form the front support. To secure the frames, attach them at an angle from the wall by threading picture wire from the back of the frames to the eyebolts secured in the wall. Make sure the shelf is level, then secure the bottom of each from to the wall with drywall screws and begin to embellish.
Glass Shelves
For glass shelves with a sea theme, use two architectural elements as the bottom glass support. Place glass shelf on top of supports. Two marble-filled jars make the upper shelf support.

Beating the Winter Blues
Does this season's chilly weather give you the urge to hibernate? If so, we've got everything you'll need to create the coziest of nests, without ever having to leave home! The great selection of snuggly items in our Bedding Department will have you toasty and warm during those cold, winter nights.To create a comfy cocoon, start with a featherbed. Featherbeds provide a luxurious layer of comfort between you and your mattress by cushioning and cradling your body with a soft cloud of feather and down. Their unique construction ensures that you'll have long lasting softness and support while you sleep. Next, cover your mattress with a set of flannel sheets ; the cozy feel of brushed cotton is great on cool nights. Top it all off with a fluffy down comforter. The superior comfort of this natural fiber is unmatched. Taken from clusters found under the feathers of geese and ducks, down provides a layer of insulation that keeps warmth in and cold out. For mildly cool climates, a summer or lightweight comforter is suitable. In colder weather, choose a winter, or heavyweight comforter. The high fill power in these comforters provides great insulation and heat retention. Our plush blankets are great as an extra layer of warmth or for catching a quick nap on a blustery afternoon. Add a touch of color to your bed or sofa with a soft throw in cozy fabrics such as chenille and cotton.Beat the winter blues with help from iHome. Create a haven for rest with our selection of bedding that will keep you and your family comfortable and warm throughout the season.
