Sustainable + functional + art
= Ducky!
I dig.
A surfboard shower!
Who’d a thunk?
Love these!
Check'em out Here
Will and Jane Fowler…
Too cool.
maybe too much art.
but…can one have too much art?
and am trying to place it in the newly painted and happy Living room
It’s just that I don’t know what to use…and not to use
So... up went the gallery shelves
just easier for me than a gallery wall…cause it will change. a lot.
Then I found this great brass wall light at
Habitat Homestore
Missing a little knob
So I got online to Neeson…the manf.
and looked this baby up…in hopes of finding a knob
what I did find is that it sells for $900 clams!
It’s all brass…heavy.
I paid 10. Say it with me
Yippppeeee!
This door/art will find a new home in the room maybe on the wall…who knows
It was done by the daughter of a friend
“adore” series.
and it does not look grubby in real life…trust.
I also have a HUGE B&W/sepia horse photo that is being framed
it will go over the little desk and replace what is currently there
I think.
The other side of the room is looking like a gallery
with the work of Ginny Piech Street …quite luminous!
Embrace art….better yet
hang it...give it a real home!
Now back to the hundreds I have laying around waiting for a home.
A certain someone
Has decided that he is indeed from the zebra tribe
and maybe the king
of said tribe
I cannot put this rug down anywhere…
without him claiming it.
You can see I’m moving at such a stellar pace…I have not done a thing
with the door/window paint or not paint issue.
and…yes… that would be a drop cloth on the desk…still a work in progress. oy.
I’m finishing it all today. More pic’s to come.
promise. { ish.}
Happy Father’s Day to my hus… a true king of men…
and all Dad’s. You rock.
and…could’ja move the Piano for me? someone???
pretty please cherry on top?
Ok…talk about airing dirty laundry. ewwwww.
THIS is the not so happy state of my casa
this moment.
I know some of you prefer to see perfectly dolled up after shots…and raunchy before’s.
But this post is all about the
filthy and gritty real life in-betweens.
besides…
I need your help.
So…Would you paint the door black/brown?
like I just did…
would you keep going…and paint the windows and door molding next to the door the same color?
like I kinda started doing…then stopped…then took a picture. lovely.
Lovin' the mess?
thought so.
another view…
oh joy. This is so real it is sad.
But back to the question.
?
1. Paint it all back white.
2. Leave the door dark and windows and frame white.
3. Both door and windows dark.
4. Clean the dayum house already. Geez.
thanks.
humble thanks
Mhm.
Particularly when you use a color called Marscapone
Marscapone… a fresh, very rich cow’s milk cheese — double or triple cream
(60% to 75% milk fat)
One of the foods that make the food police quiver and stop dead in their tracks.
So be careful, my friends,
be very careful of your color choices when painting.
Oh...
And I also don’t suggest you think about the color all day as you paint
and then find a recipe
for marscapone mac and cheese…
…and make it for dinner.
Nope.
Now I need to incorporate a lot of black in the livingroom
it’s slimming you know.
~Hey…take a visit to Key West if you need a break
or maybe put your running shoes on and run down there if you had marscapone mac and cheese for dinner
and visit Key West Style
a blog from a delightful looking home furnishings shop.
I was invited to do a guest post…on Florida color.
Ok… so a heat index well over 100 degrees
makes ya wanna start painting the Livingroom
…in the air conditioning.
What’s the rule of layering textures and colors again?
I’m going to use a “non” color
Marscapone by Benjamin Moore
anyone use it?
It is not enough to be busy.
So are the ants.
The question is: What are we busy about?
~Henry David Thoreau
…Now I forgot what I was supposed to be doing today.
Dayum.
