Today’s roundup is about those little final touches that just add a certain something to a room. Accessories are the quickest and easiest ways to subtly change the tone of a room from staid to playful, neutral to bright, or even boring to brilliant. First up is CasaSugar, walking us through 65 beautiful and inventive DIY projects to make a home sing, including the practically edible confection that is the flutter lamp from Tatertots & Jello, shown above.
And back to that point we made about keeping things from being boring, FresHome shares an astounding “15 Creative & Unconventional Approaches to Taxidermy” article, citing a new trend among designers of riffing on the tradition of stuffing and mounting game. Unconventional indeed:

…and finally, House Beautiful walks us through a home straight out of a modern day fairy tale. Here’s wishing you a happily ever after, or at least something cozy, comfortable and close to it.
