While browsing the Internet earlier, I came across one of the more interesting DIY projects I’ve seen in a while, and relevant to interior decorating and home improvement. Specifically, it’s a DIY concrete wall hook… made from LIGHT BULBS! Well, the light bulb acts as the mould, and it actually turned out pretty damn nice!

Take a few minutes to check it out if you’re in the mood for a simple DIY project or need a wall hook to hang your winter coat on. This could be just the thing to add a little pop-culture/industrial touch to your interior and help you kill some time if you’ve got nothing better to do!

Simply put, these are amazing. I can honestly say that I was (and still am) thoroughly impressed with the look of these panels. They are, believe it or not, lacquered eggshell panels… they’re also expensive (about $50-$90/sq ft) but I think worth the expense to have something so unique and original.

Now I’m not saying that I’d want an entire room clad in this stuff, but I certainly wouldn’t object to using it as a detail, a focal point if you will. What do you think?

White Hex Tile

Hex tiles are a great alternative to the classic square mosaic. Facing a bathroom renovation myself in the near future, I’ve been looking at several options and hexagonal tiles are definitely on my list of possible choices.

For those that love mosaics (myself included) this is a great alternative because it gives you the same great look but with a new dimension… the shape of the tile doesn’t really jump out at you right away but it definitely gets noticed.

The only downside is a somewhat poor selection. Classic square mosaic tiles are still the standard and therefore have the best selection of color, sizes, material and quality. That doesn’t mean that you can’t get creative though and mix the two…
