tink makes art

I LOVE these rugs I saw on Apartment Therapy.

Urban Outfitters and Society6, an international artist community, have teamed up and created PRINT SHOP. Urban Outfitters goes through the enormous Society6 archives and carefully selects those to include in Print Shop. You can then browse Print Shop to purchase prints from artists in over 70 countries!

If you haven’t used chalkboard paint yet, you should. It can go on any surface – glass, metal, wood, cement, etc. – is functional, and looks fabulous! Whether you’re an artist or an organizer, there is a perfect place in your home for a chalkboard. Here are some ideas to get you started…

Hi lovelies! Those cuties are my little ones at home: Lil’ Hat and Boe. Just two of our animal friends on the farm. I just had to share that photo with you!

What are you doing this weekend? I am working, but, I love my job, so it doesn’t really feel like work! We (Heather Garrett HOME) are having our Sidewalk Sale on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! Be sure to stop by for fine wine, good food, and, of course, great deals on items by Oly, Roost, Julian Chichester, and more!

Also this weekend {locally, in Durham}…

Lots of great films to be seen at the Full Frame Documentary Film Festival

David Gray at DPAC?! How did I not know about this sooner???

My friend and housemate, Terry, is turning 25, and we are going to party!
Happy Birthday, Terry!

Durham Farmer’s Market opens at 8AM on Saturday!

A few posts from the week…

A new home for our chickens: maison du poulet!

Chandeliers aren’t intended for only the dining room: chandelier love

Uses for wallpaper on things other than your wall: allpaper

I know Easter is over, but you can make these uhmazing fortune eggs anytime!

And, last, this isn’t from my blog but a friend’s: “Prima, assaggia!” She is WWOOFing (working on farms through the World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms network) in Italy and started a blog to document her travels! Great photos – She is a photographer. – and post, so be sure to check it out!

In my opinion, chandeliers can go in just about any room in the house…let me rephrase that…chandeliers can go ANYWHERE!

In the Bedroom

On the Porch

In the bathroom

On a Tree Branch

In the Kitchen

In one of my past posts about chicken coops, there was even a chandelier in this hen house! Looking for an inexpensive, easy way to update your brass chandelier? Paint! Then put it wherever your heart desires!
