Happy New Year 2010!

I went down to the beach at sunset thinking I would be the only soul braving the 20 degrees temps. The parking lot was full. As I got out onto the beach I noticed small groups of clammers dotting the surf. Equipped with shovels, buckets, and full winter gear these clammers didn’t even seem phased. One family was digging surf clams for a New Year’s eve clam chowder. How freakin’ adorable and cool is that?

I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone who has ever commented, e-mailed, and or read my blog. Your support means the world to me and frankly is the only reason I keep going. To all my blogging friends who to continue to inspire me everyday. I’m so glad that somebody created this crazy blog world so we could all become friends. Here’s to health, happiness, and success in the New Year!

Jon Olsen: Winter Photographs

Posted on | December 30, 2009 | 5 Comments

I came across Jon Olsen’s work recently on the cover of Yankee magazine. The image above is part of a winter series of photographs shot in Vermont and New Hampshire. The images capture winter as a calm and uncluttered landscape. They make me want to jump in the car and head north. How can you hate winter when it’s this beautiful? Find out more about Jon and his photographs on his site: jonolsenphotography.com. Photographs can be purchased through Jon or through local galleries that represent his work.

Rustic Farm Table For Bathroom

Posted on | December 29, 2009 | 20 Comments

Our bathroom renovation is a bit stalled for the moment. I’ll share in another post. I’ve been thinking my ideas for the bathroom have been a little too clean. My house is pretty rustic but I want to find a balance between hard core country and modern. When I say “modern” I mean early 1900′s. The funny thing is I don’t think my house even had indoor plumbing till the early 1900′s. So what is really correct? Sometimes I feel like nothing makes sense nor does it really matter.

Anyway, what I wanted to talk about was rustic tables for the bathroom. I remember finding the below table on Absolutely Beautiful Things about two years ago. Then the other day I came across the above photo and was immediately reminded of Anna’s bathroom. How’s that for photographic memory? Unfortunately, my skill only works on pretty interiors. The above photo has the sink mounted on top and below the sinks are mounted inside. I kinda like the look.
