Bookends

Wednesday, May 6th, 2009

In the search for the perfect pair of bookends I have decided that I love only two.

Ben Seibel Jenfred-ware bookends

George Nelson Jax / Jack bookends

The Nelson is a classic, but man all those Ben Seibel Jenfred bookends are sexxxx-y. These both pop-up on Ebay and Etsy, but can get quite pricey very quickly. The hope is that I stumble upon them somewhere unexpected and my wildest fantasies about keeping my books straight in style come true.

New Lamp

Tuesday, May 5th, 2009

I got a fancy looking vintage lamp this weekend from Amsterdam Modern. Ellen is having a sidewalk sale of 20 – 50% off items this upcoming weekend May 9th from 11 – 4pm, to make room for a bunch of new imported goodies. If you are in the Los Angeles area – I’d say this is a sale not to be missed. She has the most wonderful lighting and furniture to die for.

I need to rewire the lamp since it still has its European electrical, but for the price it was such a deal. I am totally going gaga for plastic Scandinavian lighting from the 70′s.

VOTE FOR ME!

Monday, May 4th, 2009

This is just a shameless plea but…

I totally entered the RejuvenationMake Your Home Your Own” contest to win $1000 of their fancy products. I would use that cash to buy an exterior door hardware set, because this mess is my front door after more than a year…

YES. That is the Realtor lock box still on my f*ing door.

Its not laziness (well maybe a little) its just that exterior door hardware that looks good and covers all the holes at the Brick House is VERY pricey! This is what I would get in a brushed nickel.

Please please please vote for me. Voting opens May 5 – 31. I am a whore for free products. I love you.

****UPDATE – Polls are now open! I’m losing!
