A: You might want to wait until she gets back, to involve her in it. She's 13, I'm sure she won't appreciate being treated like a child.

Pottery Barn Cubbies gets Mate
My hubby bought me these awesome cubbies from Pottery Barn that fit perfectly on top of a desk that belonged to my grandparents. It wasn't an heirloom piece so I didn't have any problem painting it to match. For the pull down part, I modgepodged pages from an old McGuffy reader. It was in such sad shape that it wasn't even good for display. I also added some pages to the cubbies to tie the whole thing together. I wanted something different for a handle, so I used bulldog clips for the pull down handle and the small drawers. My kids say I'll paint anything that stands still for too long. I guess it's true, I've painted on everything from charcoal briquets to rugs. I also do some stitching and paper crafts. I love fabrics but I don't play well with sewing machines. I love thinking of new ways to use things. Some times I do this with cool old vintage finds; other times with items that I rescue from

Apparently, we are all supposed to be making butter and putting up jam this fall; many retailers showed kits with the makings for farm table goodies.
Williams-Sonoma had kits for making cheese and butter, along with pretty wooden molds. Expanding their Agrarian line beyond the popular chicken coop, the retailer now has an old-school cider and wine press, and a grain mill, should you feel compelled to try your hand at flour making. There were Mason jars, lengths of colored twine and paper tags for gifting.
West Elm showed several different table garden kits, and even a Mason jar cocktail shaker.
Gingham, potato prints and buffalo checks; rough linen, burlap and cotton homespun textiles; earthy, rustic ceramics; chunky knitted pillow covers and throws; and galvanized-metal storage containers were all part of home retailers' fall previews.
Distressed and salvaged wood furniture and forged iron accessories also are part of this look, so watch for affordable examples if it appeals. Grandin Road has mirrors and wall hooks made of old yardsticks. Pottery Barn has the Conner collection of reclaimed pine tables with limestone tops, and the Olivia bench with a weathered blue finish. Here too: candle holders fashioned out of old whiskey barrels and olive oil crates.
