Bill has spent many freezing nights creating clay works in his basement studio, which were recently fired. Tiles, beautiful bowls, two tall sculptures, and some stools.
Snow Day activities besides shoveling...
The desk chair in the living room is a vintage Arne Jacobsen for Fritz Hansen Ant Chair made in Denmark ($75 at Home Front), which had slight pitting marks on the metal lower legs. They were easily removed by rubbing wadded aluminum foil vertically, over them. I found new bottom black caps in a good hardware store and it is now refurbished.
Leif has been working from his Mid Century Modern home as he fixes it. While working on his studio, he has also been designing a new sailboat logo for his aunt & uncle and their beautiful new sailboat. It is a classic; modern design boat with the name in deep blue.
"Get them while they last..." $150 white 60in. shaker style dovetailed cabinet from FBM. This style cabinet matches Leif's kitchen with the same handles and lighting above to be added
Bill has just finished trimming out and painting around our new bedroom skylight, just in time for a new view of the new year. This is the most popular fixed Velux FS MO4 skylight. Great size & price: $398.
This Christmas we have been busy with house projects and I have decorated our living room Schefflera to put packages beside instead of setting up a tree. It is "green" and allows us to finish a skylight and help Leif with his plumbing & wiring, while Bill does more clay work.
Meanwhile back in warm Brazil, a cool Christmas Kimono from Japan.
