Summer is here and I’ve been thinking of shades sails. They are less expensive than I thought and make a great modern architectural impact. Here in the desert I think they are a must have.
I’ve got a few places on the patio that are in desperate need of shade. Now that the interior of the house is getting less overwhelming to think of and the summer sun is calling I might have to start decorating the exterior in earnest.
What What!
My new Hong Kong faux Eames Hang-It-All has finally arrived.
I Ebay’d it for $35…but the shipping cost just as much. The shipping is were they really get you. Still overall a good deal since most reproductions cost $149 – $179 in the USA without shipping and taxes. Whatev’s – I’ve been dying for one these for some time, well almost a year, after I passed up a vintage one a year ago for $150 since it didn’t pass the $100 rule.
FINALLY I have somewhere to put my purse. It has been cluttering up the den/office desk since we moved in.
*I installed it in the den since that is our main entrance/exit. We never use the front door.
The office is looking a hot mess.
I really need to figure something out. The wall light is killing me, our paperwork is out of control and there are cords everywhere…but at least I have a new solution for my purse…
Should I add shelves or something? I’m worried about closing in an already tight space with too many built-in features. I already kind of hate the layout of the desk and don’t want to slap more stuff on for just giggles. Then I have this idea about installing a shallow shelf that runs all the way across the wall above the door frame. I guess it wouldn’t be very accessible for storage.
Suggestions?
