Recipe - Dessert: Grape Salad 12:30 PM

Here we have an easy dessert recipe from my sister. It's especially great in the summertime when you need a cool, sweet treat and fruit is in season - but it can also work as a festive Christmas dish because of the green, red, and white color. Enjoy!

Tapestries! 11:39 AM

My buy of the week comes from Target - it's a damask and chandalier patterned tapestry for only $19.99

Chandelier Damask Bedding Tapestry - Purple (90x108") - $19.99

While it's a little more expensive than I prefer to spend on something like this, the pattern was one I couldn't resist. Anyone who has been to my apartment knows IndieAna LOVES damask.

Tapestries are a very versatile and fun way to vamp up a bed, couch, or wall. Just throw it over your comforter, tuck it in the cushions of your love seat like a slipcover, or hang it from your wall with pushpins, and voila! Instant and easy upgrade.

The best part is that it's fairly inexpensive!

Painting a wall is a messy hassle. Couch slipcovers easily run upwards of $100.

I hung my tapesty on my living room wall and it brightened up the drab off-white walls of my small apartment.

For other tapestry ideas, see Urban Outfitter's Union Jack Tapestry (on sale for $29.99) or their Bird Toile Tapestry (on sale for $29.99)

do you have any other tapestry ideas or great finds? let us know!
