Skunk Trap Rustic
If you have invasive wild animals, don't despair! A trap adds to the rustic charm of a country corner. As you can see, this look is achieved by mixing styles: mid-century modern ottoman, rustic bench, and antique oriental rug. The skunk trap is the perfect surprising detail to add punch to your home decor. As usual, I top everything with a pile of useless baskets.
TIPS AND TRICKS
CHOOSE A DECORATIVE BASE
Viscous skunk droppings add an undesirable element to rustic decor. When setting your trap, be sure to protect your floor. In this case, I personalized the look with a flattened beer case. The bold "Sessions" logo adds graphic appeal and enlivens my color scheme with a needed splash of red.
MAKE BOLD BAIT CHOICES
My bait here is a piece of stale English muffin, which is at once homey and subtle. But here's your opportunity to mix-up your color palette and make a statement! Consider baiting your trap with a bright piece of fruit, a swirl of peanut butter, a medley of decorative cat food, or go for a classic look with cheddar or Swiss.

A hoodie says "we're still down!"
Making due without a dryer creates inspired decor. Add double-pronged hooks to your living room wall to create a showcase for wet towels, pajama pants, and muddy Carharts. Our dryer is finally working, but we still love adding a sartorial touch to the wall above the woodpile. You might say...
we're hooked!
TIPS AND TRICKS
MIX IT UP
An overabundance of ladies underwear can ruin the rugged charm of cabin decor. Stagger feminine items with flannels and rain gear.
CATCH THE EYE
If your wood pile is in a jumble and your floor is littered with refuse, draw the eye away with bright floral prints and bold plaids.
CURATE YOUR COLLECTION
Hoodies and concert t-shirts from your wilder years provide edgy contrast.

Looking Cool
Your collection of beer coolers can pull double duty as an eye-catching statement piece at the entrance to your home.
TIPS AND TRICKS
MAKE A STATEMENT
You don't want guests to mistake the ornament for a lazy storage scenario. Group coolers by hue and size to give the arrangement a casual yet calculated feel. No need to be a stickler: pine needles, wet leaves, and a tasteful smattering of mud add to the look.
CONSIDER THE BIG PICTURE
Blue coolers work particularly well if roof tarps are an element of your exterior home decor.
