Holler.
Thanks to Apartment Therapy for mentioning my DIY Adelman Chandelier. I’m still loving this bitch and planning a few custom lighting projects. Tee-hee.
Also, I didn’t make it onto the Times list of 50 best design blogs.
WHY CRUEL WORLD WHY. WHHHHHHHHHYYYYY.
But, you should definitely check it out if you haven’t yet. Many killer blogs are listed with AT at the top spot. I added a few to my google reader, which BTW is a miracle of technology.
We found a nice building supply place close to the Brick House that has some lovely Arizona 3″ river rock. At $45 for a half scoop it filled out the bed underneath the grapefruit tree and is much easier to maintain than the cheap mulch.
Problem is, it’s been raining off and on for days now which is good for the landscape but bad for our plans to redo the driveway. The big driveway project got postponed again this weekend and now we have a languid muddy river horror-show out back. Ick.
I found this vintage shaggy flokati rug at a local thrift store for $9.99. It’s in pretty good shape, super fluffy and lushly warm underfoot as the temperature has continued to drop.
It does have a pretty wicked pink stain on one outer edge – which I skillfully hid under the bed. Crafty.
