Vintage Industrial Cart

Sunday, December 6th, 2009

pick_RBM1162

This is one terrific piece and would make an awesome side table or TV stand. Believe me it can bare any weight you could put on it. It is constructed of steel and wood and likely had some sort of heavy machining tool mounted on it. It’s top has been drilled with mounting holes. This is for someone who likes the industrial look. The middle shelf is subdivided into a number of compartments that you could use to store just about anything.

The piece has been refinished and we had to replace the wheels. The original casters were not salvageable, but the replacement wheels are old and do not take away from the piece at all. 

Dimensions: 29 1/8 inches tall by 44 inches wide and 15 7/8 inches deep.

OMG

Friday, October 9th, 2009

Hello all!

I was reading my fav blogs tonight and saw this on Re-nest

Catskills Farmhouse

OMG!  My mouth fell open and my heart stopped.  This is my kind of guy!  Where do I start?  The wall color is not what I would choose for my home only because I’m not that daring.  It is fabulous.  I love how the map blends seamlessly yet still stands out.  The farm table is pitch perfect in my book as is the trunk underneath.  And, if you knew of my obsession with old bank boxes, boxes in general and how I love to stack things as above, you would know why I love this so.

Oh, and there is the globe… that is a reproduction and one that you will be able to find in the store in the near future.  We found it in NY at the Gift Show and have been waiting for it ever since.  Will let you know when it arrives.

The rest of the pictures are equally stunning.  The house was featured in today’s New York Times Home Section.  I suggest you visit to see the rest of this eclectic house.

Here are my other favorite spaces…

Bats

That cabinet with all the drawers is spectacular, the chipping paint is great and the bat illustration is just plain cool!

Bed nook and rocking chair

I dearly love that rocker!  It is truly amazing.  And, I love the nook bed.  My son would go berserk for something like that.  How cozy and inviting.  Only trouble with such a space is he would soon outgrow it.  But, how he would love it while it lasted.

Green floor and cabinets

That green floor is inspired and the wall of glass cabinets is beautiful.  What I wouldn’t give to have such cabinets.  Not just for the space but for the dark wood contrasting with the white – Ahhhhhhh!

Anatomy

Finally, this artist and homeowner has a wonderful fascination with anatomical charts and other teaching tools like the one above.  I suggest he check out our skeleton below.  I think it would fit in perfectly.  What do you think?!

Skeleton

Anyway, I was truly inspired by this space and wanted to share with you.  Will now have to make a pilgrimmage to the Catskills to visit his shop Kabinett & Kammer in Andes, NY.  See you there…!

Take care,

Amy
