Las Vegas Market January 2014 {day 1}

After a quick trip to LA for their show on Friday we hopped on a plane for Vegas on Sunday to hit Las Vegas Market Center for a couple of days. The view from the plane was beautiful.. (it looks kinda like an ad for Southwest- not intentionally). We hit the ground running at the show and I was so impressed with the addition of new vendors and the new pieces available!

A quick stop at Visual Comfort is always worth while. This piece was huge and amazing.

Four Hands always has some great pieces and their arrangements did not disappoint this time around.

I think that this wall paper in the Global Views showroom was one of my favorite things from the entire trip, I took more than enough pictures of it.

The rugs at Dovetail were perfection.

Noir never fails to impress me with detailed and unique pieces.

I am currently obsessing a little bit over the blue jars, I have added a few to the shop and plan on increasing the selection a bit as they are great accent pieces. I love them with the mustard yellow on these chairs.

In my previous blog post about old doors,

New Takes On Old Doors: Salvaged Doors Repurposed,

I shared a ton of great ideas for salvaging and reusing old doors by turning them

into really neat home decor. Since that post, I have come across even more great

salvaged door ideas, so here is part two, New Looks For Old Doors!

Here are my hints for how to use salvaged doors in your home:

~ Use salvaged doors to fill up a large wall space.

~ A door displayed vertically on a large wall breaks up a monotonous horizontal display.

~ Paint old doors a bright or contrasting color to add life and mood to a room.

~ Think usefulness: add shelves and/or hooks to old doors to give an old door a new use.

~ Add a mirror to an old door for a completely new look. Mirrors are a great way to add visual space and depth to a room.

~ A door with windows? That's an extra special find! Paint on the windows, or apply vinyl wall art decals to the windows for a unique look.

~ Missing window on a door? Why not use that open space creatively? Use it to hang a plant by attaching a simple hook to the top area of the space, or attach a curtain to the open space.

~ When mounting a door on a wall, be sure to use proper hardware that is strong enough to support the door. In doubt about what to get? Ask for advice at your local hardware store.

~ Use caution with doors that have old peeling paint. Most old paint contains lead. Avoid using these doors in areas where there are children or food. Pick up a lead test at your local hardware store to test for lead paint. Never remove lead paint, but paint over it instead.
