Hello everybody, welcome to 2011! It’s a new year full of new ideas, styles and projects. Personally my wife and I are getting ready to redo our dining room in a steampunk style. Right now we are just in the planning and gathering stages, but we have picked up some fabric and some great brass elements from a huge salvage shop located in town. I’ll be sure to post some before and after shots of the room when it’s all finished.
