This bank was repurposed in to a coffee shoppe and a law office. The other buildings on Cherry Street here in Herrin are also pretty old as far as I can tell. This is a six stop HDR taken with Canon t1i and edited with Affinity Photo on iMac. Week 18 of 52.
quilt from 1939 - old quilt from estate sale. my mom and i bought it the last day of the sale - in OK condition to be used as a cutter upper..the estate people were going to toss it if it didnt sell. embroidery on back reads : bernice, from aunt alice 1939. i chose some of the blocks to use for my own stuffs + my mom gets the rest for her crafting.. believe me, it was VERY hard to cut..i teared up the first time :)
I've transformed a full length skirt with side split into a v neck top, without cutting the original garment. So easy, this could be done by hand stitching, and takes 5 minutes

My neighbor down the street was getting rid of a couple of farmhouse chairs. Instead of them ending up as firewood, I grabbed some pallet planks and a few 2x6 pine boards from a box crate and went to work.
repurposed a knit tank top, floral pillow case, and the yellow belt was a t-shirt

There are far too many stove top espresso makers out there that are not being used! Perhaps it was a gift or a "find" at a flea market. Perhaps you just plain think it's too much trouble to use. In any event, you're probably thinking it belongs in your next yard sale. DON'T BE SO HASTY!
First, remove the funnel and cut it apart just below the basket, Discard the rest in your recycle bin. Next, drill a hole in the base fairly close to the bottom and install a lamp socket that takes an old style Christmas light. The kind that get hot. This needs to be wired to a switched power cord. Third, reassemble the pot with a handful of coffee beans in the funnel.
Here is the complete rundown. The funnel basket holds the coffee beans above the hot lamp in the base. The lamp, in turn will heat up the coffee beans releasing the oils and making them rise to the top of the espresso pot. There is a two-fold purpose to flipping the handle upside down. First, it holds the coffee pot lid open just a crack allowing the coffee oil aroma to escape. Secondly, it's my homage to RecyclArt.org! (Thanks Dilbert! :))

These bottle openers are made from repurposed bike parts. They are functional, elegant, and high quality. Each one is unique and represent the variety of durable materials that bikes are made of and represent the possibility of repurposing other parts of dead bicycles into functional products.

World Photography Day 2022
Ten years ago, it was a hair salon, now it's a financial advisor's office.
I rescued a few food-grade buckets from the kitchen at work. I've put in some lettuces that desperately needed to be moved from their six-packs. Not sure if this will be their final home.

This is the 1st time I have made anything out of recycled pallets. It took me one day to make this coffee table from scratch.

The grist mill in Tuthilltown. Located in Gardener, NY this old mill was the centerpoint of the area for generations. It has since been repurposed as the restaurant of the Tuthill Distillery. A NY state historical marker plate has been placed in the garden at the restaurant's door giving a brief history of the mill
These columns came out of the Temple to Jupiter on the Capitoline Hill. Repurposed, of course, by the church. As is the statue of Jupiter himself.
So here we are, on the road again, and I hadn't sorted out the Sony A6000 to Snapseed interfaces.
I shoot RAW and my image transfers from this trip look meh. After 4 weeks it finally occurred to me to look at the file size. Lo and behold, thumbnail jpgs were transferred. Ugh.
This is why my cellphone images look sharp on Flickr and the A6000 images do not.
I tested shooting RAW + JPG and the good, full Rez JPG does transfer. Lesson learned.
Next thing is image processing.
I read about how Norman Seeff used to print high contrast works with a twist. He used a black stocking between the enlarger lens and paper to give a interesting softness to some of his images.
He wasn't by any means the only one to do this.
When I worked at Samy Cameras photo lab on Sunset Blvd in Hollyweird we used to do this at client request. It was really no big deal.
What was a bigger deal was our use of Agfa Portriga Rapid 111 Glossy paper. It gave a gorgeous deep walnut brown tone. We used this for may of the gallery shows we printed for various then famous photographers.
Taking the black stocking idea and borrowing tones from Portriga Rapid, it turns out, expresses pretty well how I feel about Rome.
So, here is a series of images done in an old, outdated, likely not very hip manner.
This is made from the cashmere of a full length vintage coat. I had a hard time matching it up with a contrast fabric for the applique detail that looked right, so I decided to try this tone on tone design. I really like the effect.
I have this pair of red patent leather shoes. I bought them a little over four years ago to wear to a wedding, and I danced in them all night long. (Except for when a friend and I took ridiculous Polaroids of ourselves and hid them in the bride’s hotel room, that is.) Since then, I’ve worn them a lot. I’ve worn them on dates, I’ve worn them on boring days in the office. I’ve worn them while I was balancing on the edge of my bathtub. But earlier this year, the buckle on the right one broke and I couldn’t keep it on my foot (which was fun, since it happened on my way to an 8:30 a.m. meeting and I was stuck in them all day long), and I haven’t worn them since. They’ve been sitting on the floor by the back door, and I’ve known that it was time to throw them away, but I couldn’t ever bring myself to do it.
They’re old, they’re incredibly worn out, the inside has started peeling away, the leather is scuffed and cracked and worn. (How is it that some women are able to keep a pair of shoes looking nice forever? Don’t they ever walk in them?) They’re not even presentable anymore. It’s time for them to go. And yet…
