Gold-Flecked

Whimsical, vibrant, and sultry: three words that help describe the work of Gustav Klimt. Inspired by his gold engraving father, Klimt incorporated gold leaf into his oil paintings. His images are captivating at first glance with swirling prints and the delicate gaze of the femme fatale. 

Patterns Within The Pages

Cara Barer Photography!

The patterns found within the pages were created by this amazingly creative artist. She takes phone books, old computer program manuals, and old books and turns them into masterpieces. We would have never guessed that an old phone book would turn into art. 

Yardsticks Reclaimed

 Inoui Design!

Using old yardsticks as decor would not have been something that popped up as tasteful in our heads. But after seeing it done right, we love the idea of using recycled yard sticks as a pattern around a coffee table or on a stairway! So reclaim your old wooden yardsticks and make a pattern of your own.
