Happy Halloween!

It's Halloween again and with the holiday falling on a Monday, lots of parties and treating was done over the weekend. I'll be working the Halloween away and anxiously looking forward to the feasts at Thanksgiving.

Before we leave Halloween though, let's look at what the day is all about.

Long before the happy clowns and cartoonish monster costumes we had this... I'm slightly terrified. I had no idea just how scary vintage Halloween was!


Ghost, maybe?


Scary witch clowns...


Children of the corn...


I'm really scared now... What if these kids rang your doorbell?! 


Skates make everything okay.

Ahh! Look at those eyes! Keep your crazy apples away from me!

Hope you have a sweet(literally) Halloween with lots of treats... and only a few tricks.

See you in November!

Halloween: A Costume for Every Era

Halloween is Monday... Have you got your costume ready?

I think I'm going to dress up as a kitchen designer... Best to use stuff I have laying around the house. Ha!

Friday Find - Cushionized Sofa

It's Friday and everyone is tired and ready for the end of the work week. Admittedly, I like nothing more than to roll up to the house and climb on to my giant leather sofa. 

Maybe I should ditch the leather for this...


Oh wait... not that... THIS!


Could you imagine a better place to take a nap? I know that Dolly and Quincy would make themselves comfy right in the dead center of this sweet sofa.


The sofa concept was realized by Christiane Hoegner of LoFi Studio and is assembled quite literally out of what it looks like. The cushions are filled with different types of material(depending on their placement) and connected through a series of hook and loop fasteners.



I'm not sure there could be a more unique seating space in a home(or a better conversation piece). What do you think? How would it look in your living room?
