Our Study - home tour continues...

This is the one room where Dave has really made his mark...

with his vintage fishing collection on full display-

and, gasp, even a fish mount or two or three.

This is our study on our second floor
...outfitted with a cozy chair,

a desk, and a wall of shelves.

The desk is a fabulous chippy door topping a table

with a piece of glass over it. 

The drawer unit on top was purchased at auction

and houses everything from tape to note cards.

Above the desk are baskets on a trellis --

This is where bills await (and wait)...

Also above the desk are two bulletin boards made

by covering foam-core with fabric & attaching to a frame.

Storage is found in containers

suitcases

boxes

little drawers

toy wagons

metal tins

and even a dresser or two.

The wool rug was found at auction and stored for many years

until it found the perfect use in this room.

It totally set the dark & cozy color scheme.

Shutters are installed as shelves along the ceiling.

Other details:

The monkey lamp...well, from Tracy Porter's auction...

featured in her books.  Love it.

Not old -- but fabulous!
