Have you ever seen something that you just wanted? I mean, REALLY wanted so bad and no matter what, you couldn’t justify its need, practicality or expense? Oh, this is my specialty. I could be scrolling through a blog or checking out a magazine and woah! There it is! I want it! Thank goodness I am not an impulse shopper or we would be broke.
Here are some recent guilty pleasures that were either too expensive, too big or too fancy.

Too big. I would love to put something like this in the living room instead of the 1980's fan, but this would hang so low and being decapitated does not fall into the category of home comfort.

This stopped me in my tracks. It was a stare-down. Wow. I want to marry it, but it may be a bit fancy for the lodge living room. It might even be a twinge too big. The true test is to climb inside of it. If you end up in Narnia, it was too big...

Too expensive. Seriously. I want to buy two of these for my bedroom and put them side by side. Then I would lean a bunch of framed black and white architectural photos on top. Aren't these just special?
Okay. Back to reality. I am going to go back to working on my calligraphy job, but I thought I would take a quick break and drop yall a line. Yeah, I am still feeling a little guilty for my long blog absence.
If I were wanting the photo items as much as you and they didn’t work as sold, you KNOW what I would do. It would be easy for me to find the perfect basic equipment on which I could elaborate to duplicate the finishing touches, especially the chest. What fun I could have on the projects I’ve discovered that this type of work is the best outlet I could possibly have to satisfy my insatiable hunger for creativity. Unfortunately, I might have to wait until I am about 80 to get to it…maybe I will still be around and moving about. (Quit making insulting comments about me; I’ll be watching you when I’m gone.)
Picture #2 looks very familiar – kinda like my Louis XIV armoir. Mom
