Day 801's great post


I love a well-designed table top (or bookshelf, or mantle).


When it's just right, it looks effortless. But I have decided it's definitely not without effort.


Which is why I was so pleased to see that Lauren of Pure Style Home is sharing some of her tips today. Thanks, Lauren!
