Project!

The boy and I have been wanting to get a chair for the living room, but we can’t agree on a style for the life of us (I favor something like a Queen Ann, he wants a huge, ugly  Lazy Boy type thing).  I saw this chair at a yard sale this summer though and [...]

Mad Mats!

So I found this store that sells the most random things. Awesome things, but totally random. Its like an old fashioned general store on speed, and fancy. I could spend an enitre day there and not get bored.
Anyway, they sell these rugs there that are awesome. At first, I was attracted to the patterns and [...]

I usually go the two piece/ different sizes route, but [...]

This was what I started with. RIP. I won’t miss you.

Pulling the paper down and painting [...]

Moma!

Every so often I rediscover the MOMA gift shop. Its really an amazing source for interesting things, and for the most part, prices are great too. Some things that cought my eye:

Inside out martini glasses. $65 for 2.
These look cool, and are a great solution to the whole problem of traditional martini glasses being [...]

Color!

After years of dorm and apartment living, I really embraced color when I bought my house last year. I was so tired of white, lifeless walls! So now, my front hall is brick red, my kitchen is teal, my living room is a rich, creamy latte, and my dining room is soon to be leaf [...]

Visit me in Hell- I have a reservation at Table 8

Have you ever seen the show Father Ted? Its ok if you haven’t- I only know about 2 people that have. Basically, its an Irish show about some crazy priests living on a crazy island. Its HYSTERICAL. And oh so wrong.
