Handles

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

We custom made some handles for the controversial bookcase doors of internet doom.

Whatever. I’m in love with them…

They are still NOT finished. So pretty please hold off on telling me how bad they look for a little while longer. I’ll finish them up…a little paint, a little stain…and a whole brand new open shelving unit on the opposite wall…

Iggy enjoys the new doors and he’s super cute and has excellent taste.

Oh, and I got my butterfly chair covers off ebay. They were WAY WAY WAY too small. Like weirdly tiny, even though the measurements in the description should have fit. The hunt continues as they get returned.

Yellow Lamp

I cleaned up and rewired the big yellow lamp to swag in the living room over the coffee table.

Shazzzam! Hit of color in an oh so neutral space.


Off.


On.

Loving it.

Fire!

Ahhhhh! Everything is on fire. Well, California is just constantly on fire.

I’m so glad I’m not working this week – I’d have to drive through that shit. Oops never mind, the roads are closed. My daily commute up the mountain is going to look pretty bleak and crappy after this blaze.

Everything smells like a campfire around the Brick House right now.
