Excited to spend this evening with a bowl of ramen from Ken Ken Ramen and the (new to US) Norwegian Wood.

I really love that first photo; it inspires me to spend my day off reading a book all day.

Lately I've been inspired by very monochromatic, white art pieces. Above is by Nicholas Kamuda via Object.

KOUSHI

A few days ago I made a version of Mark Eden Schooley's koushi lamp, spotted in Merci in Paris. Quite easy, the project totaled $20. See the instructions on Remodelista here.
