This sculpture was made from reclaimed books that would have otherwise been thrown away. But look! They can have a second life...as something utterly captivating. What could be better than having your favorite stories immortalized forever and hanging on your wall? What if the words that helped define and shape your life could be forever felt with their essence locked into a sculpture? When you install this artwork in your home...people will gravitate towards it. Is it fabric? Is it water? Woodland mushrooms? What IS it? They'll want to touch it, to make sure it is real. No one has ever seen anything like it. What is that I see? Beethoven? Handel? Kayne? Is that a handwritten note on a page? Its the most amazing thing to look at from afar as well as up close. This piece was roughly 4 feet high x 4 feet wide. The interior is comprised of various different sizes of books, between 5.5" all the way down to 2" inches depth and was created for a specific place in the client's home in Chicago. You may send me the dimensions you would prefer. All sculptures are custom created. I incorporated books that represented her family: music! I can use your old books or look for specific titles as well. This buyer wanted a square-ish sculpture. Each page is folded, tipped, quilled, wrapped, rolled, pulled by my two hands, for a very intricate unique, artist-led design. Your artwork's patterns and layers will emerge organically and will be incomparable to any other sculpture I create or anything that can be bought elsewhere.

A beautiful, custom wooden crate is crafted around the sculpture and it is suspended within for safe travel to your desired destination. The entire shipment will have a scheduled delivery (you get to schedule it) and it weighs 150-250 pounds, depending on size (the sculpture alone will weigh less but still be 100-150 pounds). These are both massively heavy and delicate. Never was there such a fun paradox! Unboxing and Hanging Suggestions will be sent after purchase and most customers hang themselves with 2-3 friends to assist with a simple drill and screws. People have hung them on anything from Florida plaster to drywall with wood studs to concave stairwells to drywall with metal studs, etc. Handmade in my studio, on a little southeast barrier island in the USA. Inspiration comes from my micro-homestead, the woods, the salt marshes I travel over and the salty sea we frequent weekly. Designers & Curators please contact me with any questions. Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers. ~Charles W. Eliot Copyright 2012.

One of my favorite past times is to drive by old home places. I don't know what it is that makes them call out to me. Do you ever just go for Sunday drives and look for old home places. Sometimes all that is left are the remains of a chimney or old house flowers. You know what old house flowers are, right? They are flowers that were planted at one time by the home owner and remain behind to bloom even when the house may be torn down. The old chimneys are just sitting there, no house, just the old bricks waiting for you stop so that they can whisper the house secrets to you. Well, wouldn't that be something if they could tell you what happened, why they remained and the house and family didn't. A while back while on Dawn's blog, she introduced this site to us and this is where I found these images. While this house may seem a little creepy to some, it just really spoke to me. You can tell it was a huge house. I can imagine the family that lived here probably had lots of children and the husband had to have been someone important in the town, a doctor, lawyer, who knows. I could see the mother sitting on the front porch, baby in tow, while she watched the little ones play in the massive yard. See the tree, can you picture children playing hide and seek while the one pretented to count and cover their eyes, all the while watching where the children were hiding. I know I have a vivid imagination. Now this house, while it may be boarded up, you can tell was once grand in it's day. Just look at the peely paint color still on the house. I love the porch on it but I loved the little glass room at the top of it the most. I would have spent many hours here if it would have been mine. You would have found me reading, looking out to the city below, and drinking tea. This house is dark and mysterious, but it still is appealing to me. Why would families leave them behind? Do you ever notice that once families leave it seem that even the house becomes sad and goes into disrepair. I can imagine this house would have been in a grand city on a main street. It would have been owned by a prominent family, someone important, just look at the detail. Again, another wonderful porch to sit on. What a cute cottage? Can you image it full of rose bushes peeking through the fence by a great gardener. Maybe it was the lady in the picture with her dog. It seemed it would have been a happy house. This last picture, I can see still in the middle of a town with all new construction all around. Maybe the family won't sell and the new stores are building all around it. I can only imagine the yard would have been just beautiful. I would loved to have been sitting on this porch, watching the town grow while I continued to enjoy the house. This weekend, I got out and enjoyed our city park. There's a new log cabin that was moved to the park around November and they are slowly constructing the original cabin back. The Sam Houston's Memorial Park, where Sam Houston's old houses have been moved for us to enjoy, is the location of where the new cabin was moved. The cabin dates back to the 1840's and Sam Houston would go hunting near the cabin's original location. What I liked most about the cabin were the front and back porches. I'll be showing this cabin in a future post. I'm also linking up with Jill for her new series that she's starting, The Porch Club. I hope you'll also stop over and see who all is participating for her first post.

So how does it feel for someone to be surprised with their little bundle of joy when they weren’t expecting?The Australian model Erin Langmaid seemed to be streaming smoothly through all the ebbs and flows of life, until October 29, 2019.

A nod to Julia Child's beloved classic, our beef bourguignon recipe is simple and streamlined, and absolutely perfect on a cold, wintry night. We like to serve ours over any good starch we happen to have on hand - crusty bread, noodles, mashed potatoes, and as photographed here - Israeli couscous.

Designing a dream kitchen island needs to accommodate a few simple rules: space for cooking, dining and entertaining family and friends.
In Côte d’Ivoire's coastal city of Assinie-Mafia, a stunning church rises from the earth in a triangle shape, echoing the area's white sandy beaches. Architects Guillame Koffi and Issa Diabaté, from Koffi & Diabaté Architectes, were responsible for initiating the project, which was part of a community initiative, backed by the local residents.
