For all of you out in the garden wondering "what am I going to do with all of these terra cotta pots?".
Caption reads: Patio lights made from flower pots require one standard pot and one azalea pot each. Carefully break out the bottom of the pot used for the lower section. Enlarge surfaces for joining together by filling pot rims. Using a carbide-pointed bit, drill hles in the sides of the pots. Notch the sides of the drainage hole in the top pot to receive loops of chain. Weave waterproof electrical wire into the chain and work it through the notched hole. Turn the chain at right angles to notches of pot to secure. Plug the light into an outdoor electric socket. Use a low-wattage bulb.

Ceiling fixture in the lobby of the State Theater
STATE THEATRE - PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
The State Theatre was hailed as "the largest, finest and most beautiful playhouse in Western Pennsylvania," upon its opening in the fall of 1922. With many accolades it became a "picture place," showing silent movies and presenting vaudeville's finest acts from the B.F. Keith Circuit.
Thomas Lamb, a nationally known theater architect, designed the State. He is best known for his work in the 18th century Robert Adam's style of architecture and for his fine acoustical planning. The Ingstrip-Burke Company of Chicago, Art Designers, decorated the interior of the Moderne structure in the Adam's style. The theme was that of "refinement of line and chasteness of ornamentation." The artist in charge, Michael Tomlin, educated at the School of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, Russia, pronounced himself well-satisfied: "It is better than I hoped, it is what I dreamed."
The State Symphony Orchestra held forth in the pit with a $40,000.00 Pleubet Master Organ at the left front of the main floor - accompanying the silent films to fit the mood. As the Big Band sound emerged, the State hosted some of the country's greatest musical attractions including Paul Whitman, Glen Gray and the Dorsey Brothers.
The popularity of "talkies" signaled the end for in-house musicians and the end of vaudeville. Although the greatest names in Hollywood flickered across the screen and epics such as Gone With the Wind drew packed audiences, the State's days as a movie palace were numbered. Television took away a sizable audience and the movie theatre trend turned to multiple screens and smaller auditoriums: The State Theatre closed in June 1973.
After a number of years the theatre reopened as The State Music Hall, featuring county and western music legends like Johnny Cash, Slim Whitman, Waylon Jennings and The Statler Brothers. Though popular for a time, the State Music Hall concept did not work out and the theatre closed again.
In 1988, The Greater Uniontown Heritage Consortium purchased the theatre, restored its old name and began presenting aseries of professional programs ranging from Broadway musicals to big bands, symphonies to country music superstars. The State Theatre offers a children's series of shows and provides educational programming for school groups. A multi-million dollar restoration project is currently underway to restore the "Grand Old Lady of Main Street" to her original splendor.

I love this. It's a light fixture! Of course, it isn't anything I can put in my house (too big). But I love it!
You'll find some weirdly wonderful things in We're Here! today.
Straight out of 1967.
Metcalf South Shopping Center opened in 1967, and was one of the most popular malls in the Kansas City area. When we lived in Overland Park in the mid-1970s this place was hopping. My sister worked at the Woolworth's. It began to die in the 1980s after the Oak Park Mall opened up 3 miles away. Today it is probably one of the cleanest dead malls out there. The fountains all work except for one. My oldest son compared it to scenes from the recent movie "I Am Legend". Both he and my youngest were a bit freaked out by it.
Be sure to check out my totally unrelated blog post.
I know, so I'll go ahead and say it first. Yes, this is the third photo I've posted from this quaint little spot. Alya, Matt and I went there last night to sample their wine and menu. On a great plus side, after meeting with the owner, it seems they want to be a welcome addition to my little "secret" project.
The bad news for the night? Too much wine and too many beers with Randy next door at Hammerheads. Speaking of Hammerheads.... Yup, they sure are (hence the delayed post)

Later a Composite is made with Rice papers, adhesives,Fire Retardant Chemicals, and then sealed and sanded and sealed again.
The final effect is like Parchment, or Velum.
These will be mounted to a Stainless Steel "pan" /backplate- that will hold the bulbs to the wall- and allow the "shade" to be removed for changing the bulbs.
Departmentstore - Quartier 206, Berlin (Mitte), Germany - 18 March 2011.

Along Friedrichstrasse in Berlin Mitte are department stores, shops, and boutiques which cater to more expensive and refined tastes. The central court in Quartier 206 opens the visitor to a sensory experience: geometric lines and patterns mixed into the smooth marble under a glass roof, the sounds of a piano at the base of the central staircase, and the smell of coffee brewing at the bar. I wanted to capture some essence of the building and interior without drilling a large hole in my wallet .. well, how about the photograph above?

One of the strangest configurations. And what's with the weird, green light fixture?
Caption reads: Old bricks with their unique texture, color, and patine lend qualities of beauty and sturdiness to walls. Setting a brick wall is a relatively easy do-it-yourself job involving patience, a steady hand, trowel, and mortar. [What?? No description of either the telephone booth or the light fixture??]

This is what the interior of the Mayor’s office in Toronto looked like in 1898. In 1958, an international design competition to design New City Hall resulted in Revell’s now-familiar building and public square, now known as Nathan Phillips’ Square and New City Hall.
