I swear!
I’m still in second place.
This is the last time I will ask for you to vote for this.
Voting ends this Sunday, May 31.
I put cute babies in my entry pics to compete with Tim’s bathroom.
Please don’t let this win – because it totally is right now. Yuck.
Thank you everyone. This is the first contest I’ve ever entered and I can’t believe I’m even close to winning. I’m really psyched that people would help out. Many thanks again and have a outrageously fabulous weekend.
I think I want this.
MASKROS – please come to the USA soon. I’m tired of waiting to see you in person.
I’m not sure if when I see it in person I will think it looks too “whimsical” and turn me off completely or if I will love the complicated delicate globe.
Everyone around the blog-o-sphere (I hate that term)* has been hyping this IKEA PS line for soooo long. I just want to see it! I’m worried that this light might just scream IKEA and be everywhere…
On that note, a little story.
I had a cop come into my house (don’t ask) and Officer Snodgrass (seriously) said, “Someone sure likes Ikea” the minute she walked in the front door. The thing is – there was only 1 item from Ikea in the whole house and it was the Stockholm Rand Rug which does scream Ikea. Like all that time I spent vintage hunting and scouring California for reasonably priced MCM furniture boiled down to it ALL being “from Ikea”. Just because of that one giant rug.
Thats why I want to replace it.
* to clarify: I also hate random parenthesis – but I still do it. I know I’m a stupid hypocrite.
I wish I had a whole room dedicated to just being a home office – how luxurious that would be. Instead our built in office desk shares space with the den. I guess having a den is pretty fab though.
I hate the metal task lamp hardwired above the desk. It cooks my computer when turned on (like a heat lamp). We never use it so I thought I would just rip it out.
Oops. Its gone.
Now that its gone I don’t quite know what to do to cover up the hole. So I thought…ART.
Well all art options look kind of crappy. Its like the scale and shape is off. I’m not sure what to do to hide the old hole and make the desk area snazzy.
This mystery calls for inspiration…

Shelves could work…maybe. Seems a little treacherous in earthquake country, especially over my most beloved piece of technology.

I want a Bertoia chair cover. Oh, and an awesome window.

Mirror? I think that one is kind of ugly…but maybe something rectangular?

A bearskin would cover it. I guess guns would make it all in good taste.
Uggghhh. What should I do with that hole?
(thats what she said)
