In this Candice Olson basement family room/art studio design (above) she creates the illusion of light and space with a wall of mirrors flanked by curtains. Unfortunately you can barely see that part of the room, but it's off to the right in the photo. Thanks Lisa!

Sara at Turning Stones liked that idea and decided to do it in her bedroom. Click here for her photos and tips on how to do it.

Speaking of completely unrelated things, but something that might help you complete some of your creative decorating ideas sooner than you otherwise might be able to... Did you know that Pottery Barn is having a Dream Room Giveaway and that you can register to win a $5,000 Shopping Spree through Feb 15th?

Have a great weekend!
