an icy morning on thursday = the first weekday i've had off in awhile.

i spent some time looking at these photos from the Library of Congress. They were taken by FSA photographers during the Great Depression and were part of a 2006 exhibit called "Bound for Glory: America in Color".

in school, i remember lots of time spent studying black & white photographs by the FSA photographers, but I don't remember even a mention of color photos from the Depression. i think seeing this era in color makes it seem even more real & relatable-- and not just distant people living in an antique black & white world a million years ago.

and i love seeing all of those patterned fabrics and papered walls in color! so much to look at. these are just a few of heaps of photographs you can look at HERE.

dandy

we just dropped off a bunch of goodies at The Dandy Lion--across the river in New Albany, Indiana.

if you have a chance, stop by & visit their shop. they've done a great job with the space and in such a short amount of time. it's full of lovely handmade & vintage items--displayed on a great assortment of revamped found objects and fixtures. we so appreciate that these girls aren't taking the Ikea-boring-easy-way-out!








oh and visit their neighbors The Little Chef while you're at it!

saw these guys last night at Cropped Out. good stuff.

a subscription to this Aussie mag, so I can quit rereading the one issue I have.

excited to see this, based on one of the best books I've read in recent years. i think it opens in Louisville in October.
