Outdoor Trampoline Hammock Hack

With this hack its almost worth going out searching for an old trampoline. I found it on Emily Summer‘s Design and Nonsense and it is an old trampoline that has been converted into a teepee.

Super Simple Side Table

I found this little side table featured on Ana Antune‘s blog when she featured a room that was redone into this beautiful turquoise and white space. The side table is such a simple hack, all it is is a waste paper basket that was spray painted blue, and turned upside down. So simple but yet so smart!

The room feature is on Ana Antune’s Home Styling blog and more images of the side table can be found on House of Turquoise
