PLAY

“TENNIS”

ON YOUR

DINING

TABLE.

Instead of letting the space

sit empty between formal dinner

parties, the Sidneys decided

to turn it into a game room.

When it’s time to host a sit-down

meal, they simply unscrew

the net, lay down a tablecloth

and bring in the chairs.

USE A CARD CATALOG

AS A WINE HOLDER.

A bottle of wine fits perfectly into a drawer of an old card

catalog, like this one the Sidneys bought through

Craigslist. Drawers without wine offer a perfect spot to

stash birthday and other holiday cards.

Instead of installing
pricey wallpaper, Sam
bought a $46 Cheetah Spots
wall stencil (royaldesign
studio.com) and painted
black shapes right on
the wall.

THAT’S

GENIUS!
