I Have a Guest....Mimosa Lane
You know her, I know her, we all love her.....Albertina from Mimosa Lane is here. Does anyone else think of Champagne and Orange Juice when you hear her blog name? Just me?
Albertina has impeccable taste, a wonderful sense of style and her pillows are now available at Society Social....but, did you know that she designs her own fabric, too? What can't she do? Wait till you see the amazing ideas she has for us today.

Hi there! I'm Albertina from Mimosa Lane and am just thrilled to be here at Linda's. I love this blog and am always in awe of how much I learn here. Linda has always been so sweet and supportive, so when she asked me to guest post I jumped at the opportunity.
If you have been following this installation of One Room Challenge you very well know the moldings Linda is putting in place. Boy are they fab! (see here). I love the look- it is so elegant. So, I started thinking about how to achieve a similar look for way less.....and of course the solution is 'faux' painted moldings. Painting 'faux' moldings is cheaper, faster, easier and looks pretty clever, wouldn't you say?
And how about using two colors for an added extra punch? I love the black and gold!
Or how about using foil tape for that silverish look? (you can get the tape here) Pretty, Pretty!
What do you think? Can 'faux' moldings carry you through? Or do you need the real thing?
And I just saw this and nearly died because I found it to be such a great idea. It has nothing to do with moldings are you ready? See that orange splatter below? Its a painted mirror!!! Talk about a statement art piece. Totally doing this with my five year old. Ikea, here I come to get me a mirror!
Thanks Linda for having me and for entrusting your sweet readers to me :) Come say hi here.
