lesss stress = less photos?

kinda calming down around here and getting to relax a little more, oddly enough as life calms down the outdoors warm up...way up. its just about discussting degrees out right now.

anyways, not to much new on this end. looking at venues for the wedding tomorrow as well as seeing the zac brown band play, out doors so im hoping that overcast rainy-ness they forecasted comes true and cools us off a bit. so thats good, also just had a visit from my brother jon with his wife and insanely cute daughter :) they came up for her first birthday, every time they are around i realize how much i miss having them loser then 9 hours away in colorado. but hopefuly things work out and theyll be a little closer in the near-ish future.

that being said of course theres photos but soem links quick also.

this should link to a preety rad remodel of a styleof house i see all the time and have been stumped on what id ever do with something shapped like that. realy dig there solutions.

http://www.desiretoinspire.net/blog/2011/7/19/midmod-bungalow-in-the-uk.html

that one is a comparison between to places, realy enjoy the first one. the second one not so much

on that note may as well keep going with the house stuff...

Photobucket

i think i could be productive in this space...but its awefully orginized. maybe id acomplish paying bills and reading stuff online haha

Photobucket

i think this is actualy a small room used as a giant closet but i like the idea of displaying the shoes almost like art. kind of a hidding it in plane site kind of idea.

Photobucket

walking threw yet another boring white space you see somethign interesting...color! a little further in and you notice the ceiling..

Photobucket

whoa! awesome right?

Photobucket

gotta keep this figure somehow...

Photobucket

i guess stairs are as good of way as any :)

Photobucket

just dont..

Photobucket

ever EVER!

Photobucket

expect me to carry large pieces of furniture up these things. EVER. i will sooner ride a motorcycle up them or pay someone else to move my stuff. lol

Photobucket

some cool fireplaces

Photobucket

dont recall ever seeing anyhting like this before, its preety cool though i must say.

ive been thinking a fireplace with a big comfy couch, with sliding glass doors to a wood deck with a smallish set in pool would be preety awesome. on those super hot nights you could slip over and a take a dip. and on those first spring nights you could swim and use the fireplace like a bon fire to warm up :)

Photobucket

just kinda liked this, its simple.

Photobucket

some details.

Photobucket

this is actualy the lobby of a tattoo studio but i think it could make an awefully cool man cave inspiration photo! all kinda of neat stuff.

Photobucket

never been much of a boat guy but you cant denie that the cool just dripps off this chris craft boat!

Photobucket

Photobucket

so cool, i can imagine taking it out on some big lack and pulling into a shore side restraunt for a twilight dinner.

Photobucket

been digging the 46-48 ford coupes lately and reading up on them, definantly on my list of cars id like to have before i die. it may not be a short list but these are on it either way haha.

Photobucket

good place to show a 40s style custom, super obvious boat influences. i bet it just glides down the road.

Photobucket

40s style land speed style hot rod just to keep the hot rod to custom ratio in check ;)

Photobucket

of course like most things the freinds you make doing things are alot of the fun, and driving old cars to hang out with car friends for some Q? couldnt get better :)

Photobucket

really looking forward to april 21 2012, bbq and milk shakes. hopefully with my favorite girl and hopefuly with some new wheels!

and thats all i got!
hope your surviving the heat were ever you all are :)

wedding brain...

im trying to avoid it.

thinking about cars, houses and garages has been helping me so far, so in no particular order heres another photo post.

Photobucket

i dont know that i like anyhting in particular about this space, but i like the feel if that makes since. seems like a spot i could red a book or nap in during the winter.

Photobucket

again just a feeling kind of space, less about the details more about 'could i wake up in the morning and make break fast in this?' type of thing ha

Photobucket

a tree eating a 1937 teriplane i think, i always dig when trees grow around/threw things.

Photobucket

1957 ford gauges and stars in a 1932 ford dash, yes please :)

Photobucket

i think this is getting close to the right flavor, like if i changed some images and played with the opacitiy in photo shop...


Photobucket

digging this island..

Photobucket

i realy like most of this, the black and white, the island, the light fixtures and random skinny drawers. but im just not sold on the dead space above those windows on the wall. seems off or unfinished

Photobucket

i like everything but the massive lack of color. if i could just paint one of those walls brightorange or crandberry or something id be happier. these places always look like a coloring book with no color

Photobucket

books :)

Photobucket

maps...

Photobucket

cool detail on a kitchen island

Photobucket

switching gears, pun intended, some car stuff. brian bass of bass customs in texas welds are so amazing it seems like a sin to grind them down. so hej ust chromed them this time around. the details on his builds are amazing and the craftmanship nearly unmatched.

Photobucket

all about the details

Photobucket

pre chrome welds, like a stack of dimes..

Photobucket

i love wood floors in hot rods, so many staining oppertunitys and options.

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

like a full sized model car :)

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

all those details to make something look simple


Photobucket

not realy a roadster guy but tell me that doesnt look like a good time :)

Photobucket

not a coffe drinker, but if i were i could see myself spending my morning doing just that in a place like this

Photobucket

Photobucket

a fun new wrench style i dont believe ive ever seen!

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

more roadster fun :)

Photobucket

back to inside details...

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

like im not going to like a pig skull paper weight?

Photobucket

black tub!

Photobucket

fat tub!


Photobucket

crazy tub...and balcony?

Photobucket

comfy

Photobucket

big art! i guess if its gotta be an all white space the least you an do is some big colors to stare at during dinner

Photobucket

this renovated 30's auto shop garage took a while to grow on me, but it finaly has. i dig the idea of it basicly having a front porch for cars ha. you could leave the door up and wrench while it rains with out getting even close to wet.

Photobucket

before if you were curious :)

Photobucket

not on the same building but thought this was a cool looking roof

Photobucket

and nice looking lumber

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

reminds me of aut sues new house a tiny bit...

Photobucket

realy just painting that back wall a rich color would do amazing things

Photobucket

cool lights!

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

drawers :)

Photobucket

a little hide away?

Photobucket

what to do with an extra back shed?

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

kind of a neat idea

Photobucket

Photobucket

i like the idea of the caution painting but think it could ahve been cooler, something to expand on i suppose.

Photobucket

i think i could hang this on a oak stained wall above an ivory leather couch with brass nail heads on it and feel preety good about it haha

Photobucket

details!

Photobucket

been collecting photos of crazy 60's paint for sarah :)

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

Photobucket

ive always loved model A's

Photobucket

though this guy looked like he wanted to keep his...moving right along haha

Photobucket

amlost perfect, pretend that funny horn thing isnt sticking out of the bottom of thoe cowl though. weird.

Photobucket

perfect! i can just imagine getting home from work early, pulling the garage door open and rolling out to grab my girl. let it gurgle warming up headed out of town and watching the sun head for the horizon on an old county highway on our way to a nice steak at the steak house 6 miles from town. a cool breeze slipping in the windows ridding you of the humidty outside the door. a bench seat.

doesnt get much better :)
