Punk Rock Chalk Cock

So my sis-in-law, Michelle, and I have had an running joke about decorative roosters ever since Aaron tried to sneak a gigantic rooster into our wedding registry. Well, Michelle has been threatening to buy a rooster for us for a loooong time and this year she finally did it! ARG! It kinda looks like this…

Now as far as kitchen cocks go this one ain’t so bad! I like the chalkboard aspect. But… it was still a little too “country kitchen” for our crazy artists’ space that we call our apartment so Aaron suggested a “punk rock makeover” for our Chalk Cock.

Well today, while I was tidying up, I noticed that somehow we’ve come into ownership of a spray paint can of metalic silver paint. And I thought… it’s time for Chalk Cock to get de-countryfied.

Check out Chalk Cock’s new look! And thanks again Michelle!!!

My first inspiration board

I’m helping my friend Erik decorate his apartment. So I put together this inspiration board using only things from Target & Ikea…
erik's inspiration board
drapes from Ikea – shower curtains & matching towels from Target
bedding from Target – decorative pillow from Target
blue dishes from Ikea – brown chair from Ikea

I really like the way this turned out! I think this green, blue and brown color scheme could work well for any guy in his mid-twenties looking to decorate his first bachelor pad! 

MAUI march ’07 (new decorating project)


Aloha again friends.

I went back to Maui for another working/decorating trip. This time my mom and I decorated my cousin’s guest house/future pool house from scratch! So I spent most of my time going back and forth from Home Depot to Lowes to Walmart to Kmart to Ross and then back to Home Depot.

This is how I spent most of my time in Maui…
