June has arrived in all its glory! Now that it's summer, a lot of you are probably looking for some good ole do it yourself projects. Here is a roundup of good tips and tricks to enhance your home...

2. Stop the Slip. Good old Martha taught us that rather than buying expensive anti-slip mats for a rug, just turn it over and run a few lines of acrylic-latex caulk every 6 inches or so. Let dry and flip over and your rug won't be going anywhere.
3. Clean it up! Okay, we know it isn't spring, but if you take the time to keep things neat and tidy every season, you will feel much better about your home!
