trading spaces, instant impact
Trading spaces is an old book we got (2004) based from a reality home tv show of the same name. Hosted mainly by Paige Davis.
This book is a nice read for DIY interior designer (cough) or to those who want some doable home improvement projects. Not really heavy on stuff about furniture but more on low-cost instant home – room makeovers. Each topic or section, it gives 2 to 3 sample projects. And i must say, it’s kinda inspiring and makes me wanna to some redecorating around the house.
The book dwells on fabrics, paint finishes and painting methods and architectural detailing (from this section, i learned a lot) and embellishments. The most entertaining part for me is chapter four, “artwork, made easy.”
The great thing about this book is that, the insertion of easy to accomplish projects like sewing, wallpaper, pillowcase making, repainting of furniture. Quickie tools, tips and techniques for topics like stitches, fabric terms, paint brushes and paint rollers use, architectural and construction materials are all worth reading.
And in fact, the book is in my re-read lists. Grab a back issue copy (from eBay!) and say… “it’s time to get busy and have fun.”
Book description from here.
Back cover description…

A old copy of “bookzine” Tank Too given to us last December. I think it’s by Tank Magazine. A collection of their works/photos perhaps. I dont have copies of Tank Mags but I do know that photos published here are great photographic arts. Includes amazing imagery and full-color photos encompassing architecture, arts, people, fashion, design, graphics, etc. Books like this is a source styles/techniques and visual ideas, an essential guide how capture compelling photos, an inspiration. To the one who gave this to us, and to Tank… thank you.
ate glo in the dark
This is post 13 of 20 of our Face of the Week series. Shot in black background. For no reason at all, I’m naming this wall art face display, Ate Glo. Thus the title… “ate glo in the dark”.

Last time we posted the hand displays, the colors are creamy white and black. Another batch of these resin hand decors walked, or should I say, crawled its way into our office. 2 Dozens of jewel colors (silver and gold). Only few pieces left. Grab the hand!

I know 2010 is the year of the tiger but technically, the year of the tiger will kick-off on Feb 14 2010 so it’s not tiger year. The OX still reigns supreme for now.
For 2012, it’s the year of the dragon. So, enjoy this post this is Leoque’s happy new year advanced post, not for 2010 but for 2012. By the way, if you love all things dragon for your home, check out the big wood dragon mask we have. It’s a mask-have, err, must-have for dragon lovers.
