If you only know Charles and Ray Eames by their mid-century plywood and fiberglass furniture, you may be puzzled by the title – Eames: The Architect and the Painter.

Updating the Kitchen Around the Cathrineholm Poster – Part Two:

Earlier this year, my friend Jennifer brought me a surprise gift. It was a poster of Cathrineholm enamelware that I had been eyeing on Etsy. I have never mentioned about the poster to her, so it was a quite surprise. I first saw the poster on Flickr and found that it was for sale on [...]
I have been eyeing Rejuvenation’s Mid-Century Modern Collection for a while. When I get a “real” mid-century modern ranch dream house (my current house was built in 1955, but it does not have the right look), I already know where to go for lighting and cabinet hardware – but what about bath hardware and door [...]
With all my bills being signed up for “autopay” and having a book of Forever Stamps literally forever, I rarely visit a post office – which doesn’t really break my heart. I hate standing in a line at the post office! Anyway… my niece’s birthday was coming up and I had to drag myself to [...]
