like butter

I purchased these bakelite butter knives on a recent trip to Denmark. I love their butterscotch color.

I don't need these knives, despite my affection.

So they will be posted on the shop soon.

Unless I change my mind...which is often.

What do you think? Keep or sell?

backyardigans.

Note to self - never use live links to photos in your blog...because then the photos go away.  Boo.  Sorry the desk photos and bed photos are gone.  I have now learned my lesson.

However, we have purchased a sander and decided not to get another desk right now.  Too many other projects around the house to contend with - namely our backyard.

We've torn out most things and ready for complete demo next week.  All I've been thinking about is outdoor living.  Scrounging around salvage yards, definitely got some inspiration for our trellis/arbor.

We break ground next week - I'll keep you posted on the progress.
