Leonard & Imperial

keith's 2nd drawing
Keith completed his second drawing last week, more fabulous than the first! :) Good job sweetie, you're so talented! :) * Last week, I found my newest form of inspiration (and I've seen it coming for a while, all around me, I'm obsessed with old mechanical things: typewriters, record players, organs, gumball machines, clocks, phones and radios). But I hit my inspiration peak when i found this fridge! If it wasn't sold, I would have bought it and moved it into my house in an instant! It was actually so inspiring, it felt magical! I bought the painted dresser beside it for my guestroom :) My friend told me that her Grandparents bought this Leonard Fridget when they first got married, and that the lightbulb has never ever burnt out! * Four years ago, on my first trip out to the Rusty Jack (Our Cabin; named after both our Grandpas).... I saw this beautiful old abandoned shack. It stole my heart and I knew one day, I'd find a way to go inside! Even as a little girl, I dreamed of going into abandoned shacks, garages and cabins to explore! Monday, I did it! I did a B&E, I got the door open and went inside and explored and wanted to take things! Like the old tables and pretty fridge! :) Instead, I took pictures of this amazing fridge, poked around and took an old painted can with handwriting on it! eeeek! xo!

  1. i was definitely one of those little girls too! but, every time i have explored something it's turned out bad. like once i explored an old abandoned house waaayy outside of town and once we saw the prosthetic leg, we were out of there. and then, my boyfriend and i finally explored this old pirate ship on the way to branson and we're pretty sure we escaped a horror movie plot.

    at least you got to see pretty things on your adventure!

    and that fridge--to die for.

  5. hehe...love it! i am compelled to go in old barns or little abandoned shacks...especially if the grass and weeds are 17 feet tall and there is a NO TRESPASSING sign. it makes me wonder what could possibly be inside! i'm glad you found something fun on your adventure!
