Ho-hum shelving? Make it pop and coordinate with the rest of the room by painting the back and sides of the shelves.

Mess under the table? In my small apartment, underneath the table is valuable storage space. I'll be making a simple table skirt like this one to hide my recycling bins, which live under a side table in my kitchen.
