Swag Lights
Our new house is from the 50's and doesn't have any built-in overhead lights, with the exception of the kitchen and bathroom. I have been investigating swag lights that plug into the walls and hang from the ceilings. These suckers are EXPENSIVE! I wonder how I could make my own?
I am in LOVE with this one! I think it has the perfect vintage appeal! I can see it hanging over my vanity, and fancy blue chair from JR's Nanny.
Art Inspiration
From Ish and Chi, who is absolutely gorgeous by the way! She has some amazing art featured in her home. I need some more canvases! All out and not in my budget until the end of October. What am I going to do? One a side note...the budget, although tight...has become a great tool for my little family to get to where we need to go.
Salvaged Furniture
The basement of my 100-year old jewelry store is a virtual playland of old furniture. I shot these pieces that I want to bring with me to my new abode and refinish into gorgeous pieces to keep forever. I have a good inclination that my amazing boss will let me have the bench, I just need to ask.
The bench is my #1 pick. I want to use it in my studio. I can envision keeping the same color scheme, but just with a new coat of paint. I can see baskets stacked below full of craft and art supplies.
Old desk. AMAZING! Most likely way too heavy to move. It will just have to stay buried under cardboard boxes for now.
There are boulders and rocks coming out of our basement like this one all along a wall. It looks like a tunnel.
I had dibs on the doors. The owner of the building thinks they may one day need them so they will sit here unused and unloved for eternity. Please Olympus Properties...can I have a door? I want an old door headboard oh so bad!

What I Have Been Up To
Driving my new Kia Sportage
Wearing my new shade of red lipstick
Pincurls overnight combined with a sexy, dramatic, yet almost constipated look on my face
