Coat Hooks Express Themes and Style
Coat hooks are fantastic home accents that you can incorporate into any room’s décor. A wrought iron, stainless steel, or other metallic design is crisp yet also has the right hint of Victorian charm. Wood adds to a country look, while bamboo plays nicely when paired with decorative fans and screens.
For children, a variety of colors and character themes livens up the idea of hanging up coats and hats. Different style hooks can be used for clothing, umbrellas, book and hand bags, keys, even laundry bags. Coat hooks with shelves are perfect for displaying favorite photos, books, and statues, or pairing shoes up with outfits. If you prefer not to use a wall mounted set, you may like an over the door style, or one that hangs magnetically. Expandable coat hooks are nice for fitting between book cases or wall art, furnishings that may later be moved or replaced with different sizes. Let your imagination flow!

Shelf Paper Brings Much to Little Spaces
Shelf paper is an inexpensive and easy way to perk up smaller spaces. Lay waterproof lining in the under the sink kitchen and bathroom cabinets and say goodbye to scuff marks and drips. Prevent glassware, mugs, and vases from slipping off of shelves by setting them on nonskid or grid shelf paper. Freshen up clothing drawers with scented lining. Cover closet shelves with a paper that reflects the room’s décor. Changing tables, toy bins, and home office supply containers go from bland to bouncy when a little touch of shelf paper is applied.
Try reversing your decorating: decide on the colors and patterns for the smaller areas first, and then let the overall room character follow. This is a fun way for family members to discover new creative ways to add their own personas to a home. Cookie containers, pet treat jars, knife blocks, toothbrush cups, tissue box holders, and other extras are more ways to let a bit more design come through.

Decorative Contact Paper Combines Function and Flair
How can you update wall, door, and cabinet colors without paint or renovation? Use decorative contact paper. There are patterns and prints for almost any idea: hues, sheens, textures, florals, animals, animal stripes and spots, geometric, abstract, sports, cartoons, whimsical, traditional, vintage, and much more.
Decorative contact paper is a simple way to cover up smears or stains, and easy to remove markings should any occur. Use a border in one room to play off of the wall design from another. Instead of conventional square or rectangular strips, cut decorative contact paper into funky shapes and use along a hallway or on a closet. When you’re done with these larger makeovers, use scrap pieces for finishing touches.
Never found the perfect wastebasket for the bathroom? Add a design that complements the shower curtain. Does everyone have their own storage bins for extra stuff? Personalize them with favored nuances. Soon enough, decorative contact paper will be your go-to solution for hair line leg or chair cracks, media center doors fading with age, and anything else in need of a little extra TLC.
