Blackshear Project : Moving time

Things have progressed quickly at our house project in the past few weeks. The kitchen is mostly installed, we have modern day conveniences like hot water and air conditioning, and out roof only leaks a little during heavy rain storms (ou vey!). This last week we started moving over some of our art, and a bit of furniture. The wall unit shown above is a piece I designed and built with my wife a few years ago. It's modeled after the classic Danish modular wall units, but I built it with supporting feet so it could be used free standing instead of attached to the wall. Something that was important as we moved from rental to rental. The white laminate doors on the left are a convenient place to put our stereo equipment, while the three white drawers are offer more concealed storage. There are several shelves that I still need to put up around the upper boxes, but for now it's just good to get it into the new home. So far we have only put our Art & Architecture collection up there, and one lonely black ceramic skull we picked up in Tulum. You'll have to wait until our housewarming party to see it finished. Stay tuned for that...
