Diane Keaton Designs Rustic Residence for Herself

For the past few decades, Academy Award-winning actress Diane Keaton has spent much of her free time off set on a series of construction sites flipping houses. Who knew?

Inside you'll find distressed brick, chicken wire cabinetry, raw wooden beams, old chicken coops repurposed into pendant lights, shiplap-covered walls, subway tile, black french shower doors, and a plethora of antiques. I chose to feature the kitchen; click here to see the rest of the home she designed for herself with the help of Pinterest. The photos and article appeared in both Country Living and Wine Spectator Magazines.

If You Love Diane Keaton, Read Her Book

I can't decide which would be better, reading her book or having Diane Keaton read it to me on an audio book! I found a great review of 'Then Again by Diane Keaton' at The New York Times. This biography had me at the dust jacket. I love her and blog about her often.

Diane Keaton, Ellen Page to Star in HBO Series About Blogging

Diane Keaton, Ellen Page to Star in HBO's Tilda
"Diane Keaton and Ellen Page have been cast in HBO's new Hollywood blogger pilot called TILDA.
Keaton, 64, will play the title character, a powerful and greatly feared Hollywood blogger, in the half-hour comedy. Ellen Page, 23, will costar as a creative assistant named Carolyn who's torn between following the corporate culture of her studio and following Tilda, who has a great interest in her.
Page will next be seen in this summer's Inception and Keaton will appear on the big screen in Morning Glory, due out this fall."

This sounds good. You know I love Diane Keaton and I just happen to like Ellen Page too. Sounds like a winner! Wonder when the series starts? I can't believe this news breaks just as I look at a note to myself on my desk to cancel HBO. I might have to rethink this action.

Great Eyeglass Frames

I like these frames from Kate Spade and they are only $68.00. They are reading glasses but they look like a quality pair that you can use for prescription glasses. As you might remember I'm long overdue for my eye exam and the search for frames has begun. I like these being worn by Diane Keaton too.

Diane Keaton | Great Eyeglasses

I love the horn-rimmed glasses that Diane Keaton is wearing. Try finding a pair with that classic D shape also known as Barrister glasses. It's impossible. I'm cleaning my office and now I can shred this page torn from some magazine. Scan and shred. My basket is filling up nicely for recycling tomorrow. Enjoy the upcoming weekend, Rosemary.

These are bookmarked for my consideration. How in the world do you order frames online? How do you measure? Where do you measure? Help.
