playful house

Leafing through the September/October issue of Hallmark Magazine, I came across this playful house article. Stylist, Andy Newcom put together all of these fun ideas to decorate using toys. He transformed an old battered table with a chinese checkers table (above), a plain wooden table (below) with vintage rulers and yardsticks and turned a piece of cork and wood into a Pin the Tail on the Donkey bulletin board. Find step-by-step instructions for these, as well as a few others at hallmarkmagazine.com. Photos by Scott Gibbons.

love the jarro in the first picture. a pleasant surprise is that they don't need water. ive had the same bunch for about 4 months now, and still look great!
