Off Topic...

okay, so my dad flew in yesterday.  He is here to see me(obviously) and to help T and I put together our new apartment. Here are some pictures I've gathered for inspiration.


I found an ornate frame like this on the street. I want to clean it up and find a piece of art to put inside.  I love this dresser too.  We are currently looking for a piece like this.


I love planting.  Flowers and greenery bring life to a space and they smell amazing.  I love these pots and I like how they are all gathered together. maybe under a window??


I love this wall art.  I would love to do something like this in our bedroom.  I'm not sure if it is possible but it creates such a great focal point and depth. 

I hope you all have a great and productive weekend!

Perhaps try Craigslist and maybe Ikea for similar pieces? Good luck getting things done this weekend!

Would any of Ginnie's sketch's work in that frame?

Kirby Margaret said...

Yes I was thinking of putting something of Ginnie's in there. I'll post about that another time. Ginnie was the grandma of a childhood friend who painted. I was given a handful of her sketches from before she was married. I was also blessed with the gift of her wedding dress!!

Thanks for the comment mom!
