London superstar Suzy Hoodless is rising fast among the design elite - as you can see by these pics - for good reason! Her fearless use of recycled finds, clean lines and local sourcing of materials makes her someone we can feel good about emulating! I scoured her site for inspiration that I can bring into my own home without paying her hefty (ahem..clearly, deserved) price!
These shadow boxes are actually a cinch to make and an be pretty affordable. Grouped together they have such an impact! Check out directions here. 
Using an easy-to-find lamp kit - you can turn anything your little heart desires into the light of your life. Lowe's has some pretty simple instructions here.
For only a couple hundred bucks you can turn your precious photos into museum worthy attractions. There are a ton of spots on the web that do it - I like Artisico.
Love this post and all these ideas!
