{idea notebook} Me & My Shadow

When it comes to our favorite things and special collections I find it important to consider how we want to present them to the world. What could be more perfect for your special piece than featuring it in a charming shadow box? Not just for little girls with pig-tails, shadow boxes can be sweet or modern depending on how you treat them. And they add great dimension to our often 2-d walls. (This wonderful idea was taken from 100 Decorating Ideas Under $100, Summer 2010 issue) Simply repurpose an old drawer with a fresh coat of paint and some pretty wallpaper or decorative paper and voila, you have a timeless presentation for something you hold dear. Another thought to consider is changing out the drawer knob for an extra personal touch.
