Tea For Two

Tea For Two, mixed media assemblage

Tea For Two is complete and in the shop. After sharing this video 10 days ago I continued to fiddle with it and ended up adding four additional pieces. I finally decided to stop tweaking and glued all the parts into place last night. It's almost impossible to call a piece like this "done". At some point you just gotta say enough is enough. The chippy yellow tea set was found in a dusty cabinet back at this thrift shop in Kansas.

Filling Drawers

Remember this metal cabinet I recently claimed for my studio? Thought you'd like to see the drawers are now filled up with inventory and a few of my rotating vintage collections. I didn't realize when we brought it home that each drawer slides out and removes easily--like those old school card catalog files in the library. This drawer-removal feature makes it super handy to quickly make up game parts and game ephemera packets for the vintage shop. All this stuff used to be stored in plastic totes, stacked on a shelf which worked ok but this is even spiffier and more efficient.

TAKE

Why thank you...I believe I will take this old-school metal cabinet full of practical drawers. It could be more than useful to me and I will fill its drawers with all kinds of goodies (or inventory). Hmmmm...we shall see....rearranging the studio sounds like a fun weekend project to me.
