Nice Bed

I’m on the hunt for bedroom inspiration because I want to update my bed head and linen collection.

I picked up a chesterfield style bed head in a second hand shop in Milton. It’s a pale blue velour a bit like the bed head in Mad Men. It’s so hard to buy matching linen I want to get it reupholstered and get some new bed linen! I’m also thinking of making a quilt but more on that later.

I saved these a while ago and I can’t remember where they are from to give due credit!

Autumn in New York by Matte Stephens

My boyfriend bought me this print of Autum in New York by Matte Stephens for my birthday and it’s hanging above my desk! Matte has a great design collection and some nice pictures of his living room posted on his flickr.

I’m dancing!

Thought I would post this since I kinda like it.

I came third in the recent ASDC 2011 Jack & Jill. Liam, my partner in the video nabbed first! Check out wikipedia for more on the Jack & Jill competition format. Basically you enter as an individual, you don’t know who you’ll be partnered with and you don’t know what song you’ll get. I love Jack & Jill because it involves minimum preparation and maximum fun because it’s social dancing!

Here is the all-skate video, I’m hanging out in the back.

Seattle by The Hot Toddies

And just so you can hear the lyrics and harmonies here is the studio recorded version.

I’m a big fan of Ping Zhu’s style. I love how she uses the texture of each brush stroke to create form. Check out her blog for more work.
