contact paper your desk!

Hooray! Woodgrain contact paper saves the day again- Check out this post over at Apartmenttherapy SF, where AT:SF reader Sofie turned her light woodgrain desk over to the dark side! We've actually done this with several of our furniture pieces too- looks great! Read the before/after story at AT:SF.

coat racks

Design Sponge has collected a really great round up of faux bois coat racks. Here are two that I don't think we've covered yet. The first is a really great resin coat rack from Z Gallerie and the second one is a great design called Fertile Garden from Moss. 

Another DIY with contact paper

Last week D*S featured a fun DIY project idea for our favorite faux bois item: woodgrain contact paper! Woodgrain contact paper is probably the easiest way to dress up basic furnishings- We've used it on several of our IKEA finds and this example is another great example- check it out here!
