This is a close up of the mustard yellow metal container they mention in the post. I covered these cork boards in book pages and attached them all together. I use it as a scrapbook so I can display some of my favorite keepsakes. These ikea drawers are just perfect for storing all of my inventory, packaging needs, etc. We eventually want to knock down this wall in our kitchen so we didn't want to invest too much time making it pretty, but really needed to cover up the country classic chicken wallpaper that was on it. Our house came with chickens (fresh eggs!) and the previous owner was a big fan of carrying that theme over into the decor. I put up this temporary wallpaper and finished it off with an awesome portrait of Dolly Parton that I bought on Fab.com. I love the wallpaper so much that I also use it in my booth displays at trade shows. I fell in love with this vintage thermos on Etsy and had to have it. The button arrangement was something I made for our guest book table at our wedding. My husband is a video editor so this entryway represents us both (him with a vintage camera and me with a sewing machine that was my Great Grandmother's). The Turkish evil eye is from one of my best friend's who now lives in Turkey. It's believed to ward off evil and bad energy. I refinished and painted the table for a bright pop of color right when you walk in the door. As you can tell from my line of accessories and my living room, I'm not afraid of some bright pops of color. Duncan and I fell in love with the pigeon portraits by Jay Ryan (The Bird Machine) at Bumbershoot. All three of them are up in our living room. Thanks so much for coming on this tour with me and Modcloth!
