Shout Out

September 29th, 2009


Mad props to Better Living Through Design for featuring my DIY book shelf. They’ve always got pretty stylish things happening around BLTD so it’s rad to be featured.

Which reminds me, I probably should show the updated shelf styling…

Thrifty!

Holler.

I’ve mentioned my love of all things Ben Seibel. I suspect the universe heard, but just missed the mark on exactly what it is that I really want. Not that I’m complaining – I just really want some goddamn bookends.

I stopped by my local Angel View (where the prices are much more reasonable) on the way to Target on Sunday. I looked around, didn’t find much of anything and decided to check out the two front jewelry cases where they normally keep the small and pricier items.

Scattered around the cases I saw a slew of vintage Jenfred-ware. I bought it all and was very, very pleased.

Thrifty!

The Boy and I headed out to Palm Springs on Saturday to do a little thrifting and grab lunch. It was 109 degrees with no humidity, but only felt like the face of the goddamn Sun.

I got my first little Danish Viking dude for $6.99 at the most overpriced Angel View Thrift in the whole wide world. Did someone say $1200 for a coffee table? OH, hell no.

I have to admit that store has some of the coolest, wackiest shiz I have ever seen. I get offended by the high prices but always see something totally insane that makes it worth it.

Rock it to me.

I’m totally all into geodes and Revival Thrift helped me out. I’m not sure what I’ll do with these slices, maybe coasters?

Studio pottery always call my name and can usually be thrifted pretty cheap. I paid a $1 for each.

That was it, nothing too exciting. I think I’m running out of room and getting a little more picky about what I schlep home.
