We think this pairing would be ideal. Either perched on this mantel piece …

… or resting on the night stand against this rich orange background.

This piece is still in the works. A papier collé of a mexican black bird. Artwork is on a 6 x 6 x 1 5/8 inch square birch wood panel. The sides are finished beautifully (gallery wrapped). This little gem will be have a thick coat of resin and will be ready to hang. Interested? Fifty five plus shipping. Visit here and contact the artist.

Just back from a long weekend in San Francisco.


We have to share this gem of a restaurant with you. A terrific menu, great casual atmosphere, and Nettie and Brian are delightful. Nettie’s crab roll is to die for and the fish and chips are the best we have ever had (really and truly). There are a lot of great restaurants in San Francisco, but this one’s a must.
Nettie’s Crab Shack, 2032 Union Street, San Francisco

We’re loving these brushed nickel drawer pulls each with vintage illustrations.
A steal at eight dollars each. Check out Monkeyshines, you won’t be disappointed.
