It’s been a little less than a month since the better half and I moved into our first home and while we still have boxes to unpack and furniture to buy, we decided it was time to paint!
The living room/dining room and hallway will be receiving a coat or two (if needed) of Benjamin Moore’s Silver Fox. It’s a gray paint that changes dramatically as the lighting goes from natural sun to artificial lamp.
Here is a taste of what’s to come.

Designer, Kris Lovett, has figured out a way to turn your finger print into a one-of-a kind 3D vase. Using a process called rapid-prototyping tech that “reads” your prints and converts them into a 3D object, Lovett has created the vase, “Embossed” and can create one for you as well.

Just found the following on Craig’s List:
Dining Room Buffet – Mahogany Onion Foot – $150
Location: Southwick, MA
From the listing:
“This used buffet measures 71 inches wide, 38 inches tall, and 23 inches deep. It is in good to very good overall condition, however, there is slight damage to the front second leg from the left and one of the pulls has been replaced with a slightly smaller one. The top is in very good used condition.”
