With summer just days away (officially, anyway), all I can think about are long, warm, relaxing naps on my imaginary sleeping porch. If you're lucky enough to have a porch, why not try your hand at building your own hanging daybed?

I once had to make a headboard for a photo shoot and found it surprisingly easy. I just ordered the wood from the local hardware store in the width and height that I needed (standard widths: twin: 38 inches; full: 54; queen: 60; king: 76).

Prints are great, but one-of-a-kind originals are...more great. The folks at Brooklyn-based Orange You Glad design studio are about to host their second "Will Draw For" event. It's a two-day gathering of artists and illustrators who will draw an animal of your choosing in exchange for a donation to a local animal shelter. It's a nice way to get a piece of original art for yourself or your kid and help a furry friend. More
