apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

This pleasing tableau is actually fjorlief's in-progress DIY project, a la George Nelson's Ball Clock. The jar of oatmeal is simply propping the project up as she paints.

This is, hands-down, our favorite part of the Cure. This week we take time to think about a room in our homes that we probably spend the most time in, and the state of which has arguably the most effect on our mental and physical well-being: the bedroom.

We also look at another of our favorite things: artwork! If your walls are bare Etsy is our dear, dear friend in this regard, but as fjorlief shows us above, making something of your own can be deeply satisfying too. If you already have tons of artwork in your home, changing things around is a great way to get energy flowing.
