industrial lighting...


I tend to fall in love with something and
then I obsess over it and want to collect them.
Not for myself, well yes for myself, but you
see I don't have much room and I would have to
get rid of something which I don't do well
and with out turning my house
inside out and starting from almost scratch, which
I would love to do but it's not really feasible, it's not for myself.

So, I hunt and collect and obsess in hopes that I can live
vicariously through my clients and customers.

This week it's industrial lighting.

I have always had an obsession but until yesterday
I haven't found a lot of it that isn't already super expensive.
Yes, I scored a small collection (about 8 lamps) of perfect
industrial lights. Now I will admit one or maybe two will end
up in my studio but the rest will be for sale.
They haven't arrived yet so no pictures but instead a little taste
of others I have pinned to my Pinterest boards.

Once I get my lamps I'll post them to my FB page.
I just love the character, patina and charm of these.

cages....

i love bird cages but
i don't like the idea of keeping birds in them.
maybe it's an architectural thing
but i really have a funny obsession with bird cages.
i found this art deco beauty today.









here are some ideas of what to do with a bird cage
other then trapping a beautiful bird and locking her up.



candles


decorative



outside


pretend bird


planters


in portland we are for some reason famous
for putting a bird on it
well in this case i say
"forget the bird, and go for the cage"
