Ah yes, homeownership is a joy. I'm really hoping I have a bountiful crop of cucumbers and squash to offset all these costs. In the meantime, I bought the below Etagere for $50 on craigslist and it has now taken the place of the bar in the living room. Quite fetching don'tcha think. I was thinking about painting it a color but I'm liking the contrast of the dark wood so I might keep it as it is for now. Recommendations are always welcome. Future plan includes orange lacquered table and some sort of white upholstered chairs. Now that would be fun, but alas must come after all the other more glamorous joys of homeownership like the above.
you've been so busy since i last stopped by, jessica - and in all the best ways! funny how the homeownership stuff comes all at once!
ReplyDeletethanks for the diagram of the grand st. redevelopment. I was just kvetching today about that parking lot across from the disney/d.chandler. but that's a long story.

I love the etagere! Perfect contrast against that wall!!!! You accessorized it perfectly, of course.... Oh how I miss our antiquing day we had in Pasadena! Looking great Jess, keep it up!!!
