Devil Dog

This is our (usually) very sweet dog Junebug getting ready for Halloween.   Just goes to show you that even the best of us have a little devil in them.  Have fun releasing yours soon!

Building as art

Yes, this is real.  No staging of the shutter positions or the Polenta signage.  Someone goes to work there everyday.  Wow!

Worth saving?

This gorgeous fireplace is in a house I’m helping a friend restore.  Well, maybe…it’s a big project and we aren’t sure what makes sense just yet.  There is another fireplace similar to this one in green.  Not everyone’s aesthetic BUT significant in that you don’t see them everyday and the tile is definitely handmade and at least 80 years old….I think!  Must do more research.

This made me smile!

Just when you think there’s only so many ways HVAC units can be screened from view.  Some clever person thought of this.  Love it! 

I want one!

I have a thing about dark showers.  And also a thing about being disconnected from daylight.  This application solves them both.  Plus, it’s just fun to shower “outdoors”.  The band of etched glass on the outside panel gives some visual protection you don’t always have in the true outdoors.   Awesome detail!

Happy Fall Y'all!

I have no idea why this photo reminds me of Fall.  It’s probably the scarecrow in the background.  Not sure either what one would do with this green horse except to smile at him.   Maybe use him as part of an entrance to a horse farm or event?   Agri-tourism booth display?  How would you put him to good use?  

And, by the way, “he” just looks like a fella to me although I could be wrong about that too.

Yummy AND Beautiful!

Maybe it was the perfect setting (Southern France) or the company (Peg & Jessie) but this Beet soup with Bacon was the best meal I’ve had (to date).  Could have also been the wine!

Door Worship

I have a thing for doors.   This is my 2^nd post about them in less than a month.   When I see an interesting or welcoming door then I know good things are behind it.  Usually lots of love and positive energy goes into those kinds of spaces.  Glad to know that I have some fellow worshippers out there too!

Can log cabins be modern?

Sure!  This is an interesting example of old and new mixed together to make an open but warm interior.  The additional height and metal detail brings in the new and the log structure gives it texture and interest.  I would live there!

Antique Industrial Chic?

What do you think?
