Just took a new round of photos...here's a sneak peek!

queen nefertiti maxi dress....

1950's folk art curtain with peter pan collar

what can i say but the KING

just playin' a round of craps

1940's dress - guatemalan pyramid style.  Welcome to 2012.

grandma's favorite crocheted tablecloth and needlepoint pillow...

finally tried out spoonflower to print my own fabric....turned out pretty cool.  technology is crazy.  and amazing.  This is just a drawing and collage I did.  I picked the color out on the internet (very dangerous, as anyone that's ever done graphic design knows) but I love how it turned out.  Lucky lady.

Tour De Haus, Pt. II

I SWEAR I'M NOT A HOARDER!!

the vhs collection.  not all mine, proud to say.

lil' e.t. keepin' a watchful eye over the teen section. and twin peaks of course.

Right now, it's raining, and I'm watching The Outer Limits, eating chinese food, and for dessert, a tray of nutter butters.  The epitome of class.

Paint By Numbers

I don't know about you, but vintage paint by numbers are another weird kitschy thing I love.  My roommate works for an awesome art gallery called Lost Art Salon, that used to sell stuff like that.  They gave her the rest of their collection, and what better place to put it than our...bathroom??  Our house isn't exactly the most beautiful place architecturally speaking...so we gotta spice it up as much as possible.

the two horses are kinda my favorites.

plus other random framed stuff (rolling stones exile on main st., little witches, replacements, exene, and lotsa flowers!!)

but the lighthouse has REALLY good colors.

we have a skylight. and lots of burnt out bulbs.

and that is our bathroom.  any thoughts?

X

Tell me Exene Cervenka isn't the most amazing lady you've ever seen.  If you don't already love X, go buy the album Los Angeles right now!!  And if you already do love X, go watch The Unheard Music!!
