Black & White...

I love black & white, I always have.
It doesn't matter if it's photography (everyone looks better in b&w pics),
fashion or home there is just something so
 clean, simple and elegant about b&w.


I take mine black...

Junking dogs...

I love this time of year for so many reasons.
One of my favorite is the appearance of free piles on 
sidewalks all over town.
I have found some of my best free junk pieces
either out running in the early morning or
out walking my dogs. 
Now my dogs seem to have a nose for good junk.
Really, they do.

Now that Laddy is gone I wasn't sure if Diesel
could do it on his own. They worked best as a team.
But my sweet ol' boy still has it in him, even solo.


Junk sniffing dog extraordinaire,  Diesel..



Pink cabinet doors and a drawer...



I'm thinking pink framed chalk boards and maybe a small cabinet
out of reclaimed wood and these as doors.
And well the drawer, you can always find a good use for a drawer
especially one in pink.

So, how did he do?
I'm pretty proud of my boy.

Let's hear it for Spring and Summer!

Ciao,
F

Saying Goodbye...

My heart beats still today
as I said goodbye to my
sweet boy...

Gym Lockers...

I found these lovelies today in the biggest warehouse
I have ever picked while wearing cream.
It was my favorite find of the day!

Photo: My favorite find today


I tend to like them all industrial but
what if you did paint them?
What could they look like?
My sister thinks I should break out the 
spray paint and get crazy
but maybe I should let the next
person to buy them choose the color.
What do you think?

Here are some ideas...

multi-colored...
source

white...

source

grass green...

source

robins egg...

source

salmon with a few doors removed...

So, what would you do?
