New Collection: Irish Terrier Images

I've begun collecting images of Irish Terriers to eventually be hung in my kitchen. I've only got 3 so far but its still going to be a few years before I can get my kitchen together the way I want it to be anyhow. I figure that I'll just collect a few each year and then by the time I get the kitchen together, I'll have a really nice collection.

Tiki Collection

I love collecting things and I love looking at collections. A group of like items always looks great to me. Some things that I am collecting or have collected in the past include: tiki mugs, hula girls, Rat Rods (model hot rod cars), Barbies (Dolls of the World Collection), and gnomes.This is my tiki mug collection. Most of them I got on Ebay or from Munktiki or from Tiki Farm.

May 2006 Project Complete: Side Garden

Before this area next to the house was all just weeds. Now it's been graded, edged, planted, and mulched. It's growing good!

Before & After: Lower Dining Room

I'm using the dinning room as a television room for now. The walls have been repaired and painted. The floors have been refinished. I decided to keep the existing light for now since it's in good condition and has a dimmer. I still need to decide on a light for above the built-in cabinets. I got new window treatments and a new television too.
