Juno Stool

Not exactly sure how I stumbled upon this image of Ellen Page and Michael Cera from a Juno photo shoot, but I thought I would post it on my blog and show how they reused a plastic crate as a stool. I might have chosen a different type of fabric but loved the use of the cabrio legs.

InStyle Home

So it turns out the Fall/Winter issue of InStyle Home will be its last. So sad because I'm sure most of us enjoyed the Home issues and with House and Garden Magazine now gone I wonder what new magazine will pop up or end up biting the dust. You might want to pick up the last issue, you never know it might be a collectors item!
