Decoration Day - Memorial Day
2009-05-25 09:01:00 Again I find myself thinking about Memorial Day and where it comes from, and its connection to the blues. I have heard songs by several of the prewar bluesmen like Sonny Boy Williamson I, that mention Decoration Day. So I thought I would do a little research on the topic.Here is just a bit of what I found;Some sites mistakenly credit Howlin Wolf as the writer of this song and say that Sonny Boy Williamson II (Rice Miller) covered his version. But I remembered hearing a version of the song titled Decoration Blues done by Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee Williamson) which made me think that the song had an eairlier orgin.Decoration Blues Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee)(John Lee Williamson)Sonny Boy Williamson I - vocals & harmonicaYank Rachell - mandolin & guitarJoe Williams - guitarRecorded March 13, 1938 Aurora, Illinois, Leland HotelAlbum: Bluebird Recordings 1937-1938Lord, I had a womanShe was nice lovin' in ev'ry wayLord, I had a womanShe was nice lovin' in ev'ry wayLord...

Interesting Fall Forecast for Home Decoration
2008-09-12 13:22:00 Very interesting fall forcasts from washingtonpost.com: In addition to purple as an accent colour now "gray as the new neutral" is the choice for the coming seasons."Gray has taken a starring role in interior design lately, becoming the go-to shade for paint, upholstery, wall treatments and flooring. Now it's appearing on wood finishes". Right - grey stained oak by Gervasony Houndstooth, tweed and tartan may be the prints typically favored in the fall, but look for a new pattern to emerge this year: text. Sentences, jumbled words, letters, numbers and symbols in classic fonts are being used to create edgy graphics and patterns for furnishings and accessories.

Cell Phone Decoration, Part II
2008-06-02 06:08:00 ???????In Kyoto we found another amazing cell phone the other day.On a hot somewhat cloudy day, a young woman was yammering on her phone while out on a shopping expedition with a friend.The friend was also talking on her phone--not nearly as decorated--and when they both finally hung up, we asked for a picture.After a bit of hemming and hawing, the woman, a college student, agreed.She said that every morning the first thing she did upon waking up was glance at her phone for a sign of a call or instant message."Just the look of it glittering on my bed stand makes me feel good, even on the rare day when there is no message. And the heft of it feels good in my palm!"Her friend couldn't help adding however: "You just like to show off, just look at your mini-skirt and sun glasses!"Yahoo Japan Auction ServiceBook a hotel in Japan with BookingsTokyo Serviced ApartmentsBudget accommodation in JapanHappi CoatsJapanese For Busy PeopleTagsCell Phone Decoration

Cell Phone Decorations
2008-05-17 04:09:00 ???????Cell phones are no longer just a tool for business and pleasure and communication.They are now a statement. As such, the owner must express herself by decorating and or personalizing it.Colorful straps with dolls and bells and good luck charms are popular. For a time, one seemed to suffice; now four or five or more are de rigueur.Women with a bit of verve attach bright rhinestone-like bits directly on to the body of the phone itself.Stickers are also popular, even among young men who plaster their phones with "puri-kura" head shots of their best friends. For women, "cute" stickers are more common (see the embossed ice cream cones above).A pink phone brimming with accessories says to the world "Aren't I cute!"

Pot Racks Useful Kitchen Fixtures and Fittings for Decoration and Practical
2008-03-06 20:46:00 The Pot Racks.What springs to mind when you think of pot racks?My impression is a wrought iron hanging rack over a kitchen island with dangling copper pots and pans.That is one image, but there are so many varying materials and designs.As I mentioned above, the hanging pot rack. These generally hang from the ceiling on chains or rods over kitchen islands, counters or stoves.These do not work in low ceiling kitchens for obvious reasons. In a high ceiling kitchen they do require you to be able to reach them so if you hang them 6 to 10 inches above the average height of a person 5 feet 6 inches then you should be able to reach the utensils but not bang your head on them!There is the corner pot rack. This works well in a small kitchen where storage space is at a premium and often incorporates additional shelving.There is the straight pot shelf with a rod underneath to hang kitchen utensils. These are usually in stainless steel.The materials are generally stainless steel, chrome, wrought...

Staging a vacant house
2008-02-28 13:01:00 Home staging is an important marketing technique for selling homes, whether they are furnished or vacant. Important points to remember about vacant properties are: * People buy «Homes» and not «Houses»: it?s therefore essential to give them the feeling of a «Home» and you certainly won?t be able to achieve that with an empty space! * A vast majority of people (over 90%) can?t imagine what a house could look like with furniture in it and they have nothing to compare their own furnishings to in an empty space. Did you know that a room actually looks smaller empty than properly furnished? * With nothing to focus on except the bare space, the negatives will become more apparent to prospective buyers. * A vacant house gives an impression of a desperate situation and you can expect to get lower offers than otherwise. So, to sell your property fast and for most money, what do you need to do?SHARETHIS.addEntry({ title: "Staging a vacant house", url: "http://montrealreales...

Unique Decoration
2008-02-21 19:12:00 One of the best thing about decor is you can choose your own motif and do it yourself. Decoration should reflect what you are and what kind of friends do you have. If most of your friends are businessmen, you might think of something related to business and finance decor like horse racing and maybe an illustration of Wall Street, something related to the people activity or what they like.In my farm home I have a western cowboy home decor because most of the people there are having a cowboy style life. They love horses and most of them have ranch. Every fiesta they celebrate horse riding and rodeo that attract visitors from different corner of our country.

Randomly Gorgeous Kitchen Styles
2008-01-20 02:33:00 Hi dedicated readers and new ones too. I'm feeling a little fluid in the aesthetic part of my mind today. We're in the city this weekend, which always makes me think more specifically about the coming kitchen renovation, and now, more and more, in terms of style, theme, the general look and feel of the room rather than the mechanics of the kitchen, for now. Once the wall came down, it opened up more than the physical space, it opened up questions about the entire space, as I said before.Short note...my husband further cut the half wall down below the countertop. Looks even better. As we speak, he's removing some soffit pieces (as quietly as he can,) So, I move to questions of style, as I surprisingly came up with the plan for a 12' sofa the other day! I didn't expect THAT, but we're on board with it. Having a home on Long Island, which is somewhat eclectic in style, more of a soft contemporary, very soft, with more of a touch of an artisan feel than a contemporary feel, I...
Kitchen Design Musings
2008-01-17 12:41:00 I received a book in the mail as a request to review it, the other day, which I subsequently declined, for reasons not relating to what's written below. Being a kitchen design pro, and especially, a blogger focusing on kitchen design, I see MANY kitchens, many more than I ever did before I blogged. It's been great!That part alone, to be exposed to new kitchen design concepts, day after day via my blogging efforts, again, has broadened my aesthetic horizons, leaving me, continually, newly inspired.The vast majority of the pages of the book I was asked to review contained what I'd call "bread and butter" kitchens. At first glance, I found many of the images in the book to be either dated or uninspired, with a few gems here and there, for sure. On second and third glance, my instinct was further confirmed. I didn't care for the layout of the book, either. I've seen it all before. I had an immediate, "eh" reaction.Then, another voice (th... |
