DLAG: One's Got Class and the Other One Dyes

In this post, we are going to focus on Rory's room. The photo above shows her Harvard bulletin board. This is pretty much self-explanatory: you get a basic bulletin board and cover it with the college paraphernalia of your choice. Some other features of Rory's room include maps, travel posters, and books. Together these make up the perfect room for a studious teenager. 

On a different note, this is just one of the many episodes where we get a glimpse of the town's fall decorations. Here, they use stacks of hay bales littered with pumpkins to create a fall harvest look. This could be great for a front porch or front yard.

DLAG: I Can't Get Started

Sookie was before her time in decorating when it came to this chalkboard. Now, chalkboard everything is all the rage. This could be an easy DIY project with some chalkboard paint, plywood, and a cheap metal frame.

DLAG: The Bracebridge Dinner

This vintage wallpaper is so charming, especially for an inn. It would go well with antique furniture and hardwood floors.

DLAG: The Ins and Outs of Inns

I love that little metal card catalog-esque thing back there on the shelf. Not sure what you would call it but it is very rustic chic, super in right now.

DLAG: Nick & Nora/ Sid & Nancy

In this episode, we get a better look into Luke's apartment. Though it is a bachelor pad, it still has that country, rustic feel from the days when it used to be his dad's office.
 For example, this card catalog, a bigger model of the one downstairs in the diner, would totally be back in style these days.
I also love Luke's ingenuity in using objects for other purposes than they were intended for. Here, he uses an old safe as a side table.

DLAG: The Break-Up, Part 2

Antique stove. Very "I Love Lucy"

In this episode we get a first glimpse of Sookie's house, which I am a big fan of. We'll see more of her excellent color choices in future episodes, but here I want to focus on these doors leading from the living room to the kitchen. Swinging doors with glass panes give it a restaurant kitchen feel.

DLAG: Christopher Returns

This antique hutch/cabinet is very pioneer era. The panes are metal with designs poked into them. This would be great for storing dishes or to use as a pantry. Another great piece!
