Bench

If I've learned two things as a fresh-faced home owner, it is:

1. I am not a plumber

2. My taste in furniture is far too expensive


For the first time in my life, I have a chance to buy furniture for a home. Unfortunately, I love modern, simple design... which, comes at a price tag. I've been looking for a nice bench to put in our living room/entry way. Here are a few I've found... and their price tags...


designpublic.com ~ $490


designpublic.com ~ $805


Design Within Reach ~ $998

Thank goodness for IKEA.

I've come up with a bench made of IKEA stools. They are not a designpublic bench, but fit with my style better than what I can find at Target.





Ah, maybe my idea is ugly... but, at $20 per stool ($40 for the whole), it's worth it.

Alyssa

Woh! It's been busy. Between moving into a new house and the last surge of 2007 for work, I haven't been able to photograph much for myself. I decided it's been way to long since I've posted anything on my blog, so here you go.

This is Alyssa... an almost relative (she is my aunt's neice) who came in the studio last week. How cute is she?

Christmas Out West

Kris and I went out to Minot, ND for Christmas this year... where we stayed with his sister and her beautiful children. As always we had a great and interesting time... partially thanks to their, um, "special" dog Jake who managed to dig and chow down on a pound of chocolate from my purse.

Yesterday, we ventured to Garrison to eat some food and play the always crazy White Elephant game. There are so many photographs I should be posting on this blog... but, I'll spare Sammi and Chelsey.

We visited the Seidlers at their farm before venturing into Garrison to celebrate at his aunt's home. I took some photographs of Kim's family out there.. as well as a few for myself. Enjoy!


Isn't this the best looking family... ever?
