I was gonna do a project this week, and it was gonna be a two-parter.  But then I slept instead of going to the supermarket.  Next week for sure!

In the meantime, I spent about three hours today scanning and resizing and cropping images from a book I got out of the library so there would be a post this week.

We are looking at The Little Book of BIG Decorating IDEAS from Country Living:

Some of this book is just boring and you’ve seen it before, but SOME of it.. well..

image

This is perfectly reasonable and totally not a fire hazard, right?

image

If you actually LIKE any of these books, don’t do this.

image

Why did you show us the crucified woman instead of the mermaid?  Why is the unicorn’s horn droopy?  WHY is there a picture of Mao on the wall in the bathroom on the next page?

I’m so confused.

image

There’s a TV back there?  You’d have to crane your neck like a mother to see it, plus there’s a goddamn plant in the way.  I call bullshit.

image

There is something VERY wrong with those olives.

image

Okay, pouring your spices into unlabeled containers is a lot of work for no reward.

Also fuck you, those are test tubes.

image

Too SHINY?  Is this what rich people worry about?

image

Upholstered chairs at the table SOUND nice, but then fucking Uncle Larry spills his wine and you have to hate him forever.

image

OHHHH NO.  No more spoons.

image

A mirror at the kitchen sink, for people who like to stare at themselves while they scrub dishes.

image

Wait, I have a toolbox!  It’s not wooden, but what the fuck!  And the place I order beads from sent me a weird tassel for christmas!  I’m gonna do this right now!

image

Mmmm.

Nope.

image

Put some flammable shit in some other flammable shit and add a wick.  Then pack it in some flammable shit in a flammable box.

Great for people you want to get rid of, I guess.

I think

I’m gonna save up wick pieces and do this at some point.

image

Okay, now you’re trying too hard.

image

This is the murder room.  It’s what you see right before they murder you.

image

To me, this just says you put them there and forgot about them.

image

Okay, why do tile if you’re just going to make it look like brick?

Also that picture is gonna get SO ruined.

Photos of perfume bottles:  ”cheeky.”

i lost it at the murder room
