Black (and white) out

The corner shelf I got in Rogers got a coat of black paint and rubbed edges this afternoon. It lives in my living room now, and Ryan said he liked it.

This little toy camera (with "friend" on the lens--how sweet) is one of my favorite things and only cost $2. I've had it for a while and it's nested in a platter of old keys I got in Crane on a fun trip with Barb, last summer maybe. I got the whole baggie for $1.50. I saw some of these same keys today for $8...each! Makes mine feel like quite the treasure...

My basket of itty bitty dominoes and a small architectural fragment I found at The Brass Armadillo outside of Kansas City last summer.

I tucked away the black books I found in Billings into the other bookcase in the living room and I'm really liking the look. I think I will keep adding more here and there.

I found the little White Cat Corn tin in Billings, too. It's not old but I liked the litte kitty leading the wagon and it fits with my other black tins on the shelves at the end of my kitchen island.
