DIY is alive around the world.

These shots are from a flea market in Santiago, Chile . I would love to take a series of trips focused on the new wave of handi-crafts. Going to have to start looking and planning:)

Check out the blog entry, I found it on NotCot.

a surreal take on the adirondack chair

me and lovery lauren took a day trip to Cannon Beach a few weeks ago and i spotted these great chairs on someone's porch. i love this curvy take on such a classic piece.



and might i say that this little beach town was so cute. many sweet little things to photograph.

cabin life

I hope it is relaxing as this looks.....

I hope we have as much fun and go as crazy as this guy....
and that our nights are as beautiful and warm feeling as this.click the photos for credits.

designer travel

we have a 1966 dodge dart station wagon and it is a beauty. i was thinking this morning about being on the road. i love watching the scenery go by. i actually really love looking at the ground on the side of the road. it's like a natural collage made up of what the area has to offer and what people left behind.

the one thing that i don't like is that the other cars on the road don't really add to the beauty and intrigue of the experience. wouldn't it have been great be on a road trip when the cars were works of art?

Cars are such a big part of our world now i'd like to see a bit more art, design and inventiveness in car design. wouldn't you? what if they landscape of cars was as diverse as the landscape of a neighborhood. wouldn't it be fun to express your own personal design aesthetic in with your car?
