Chalkboard Wall in Studio Work Space

I like this wall with a single board held up by brackets as a floating desk. It's interesting, simple and fun as well as functional. via

Tiffany Cottage House Tour


This double decker porch is my favorite feature of Tiffany Cottage. Luxist has more photos here.

Building The Nest


I got my hair cut today and the Christmas Tree with the colored lights is still up outside the shop's front door. I told them they should take it down before Easter and they said they could not because birds are already building nests in it. I watched while I was in the chair and there was a flurry of activity. I have to go to my garage and put up some of my birdhouses. It seems awfully early, especially since we got another dusting of snow last night. But I guess the birds know best. via

OMG Flowers


These delightful little flowers are plain on the outside and like miniature paintings on the inside. I don't know what they are but I love them! via

Repurposed Tin Tub Sink


This is such a great idea for a laundry room sink, isn't it? The cutout for the backsplash is perfect for this location. I would love to see more of this delightful room. via

Garage Sale Bowl Brings Big Bucks

You simply must read this 'hot off the press' blog post from I'm So Vintage

How much do you think this $3.00 tag sale bowl that was made in China is worth?

Can you believe it? WOW. I have to go look at the garage sale dish my cat is using.

Here is the link from the Sotheby's Catalog showing 3 different views including the bottom.

Workbench Desk


I like this old workbench converted to a desk. You never know when you might need a vice to work things out! This would be a great space for a bookbinder. via
