85/? - Here's a cute pink Hello Kitty reusable shopping bag that I got for a dollar at where else? Target! Our adorable friend is wearing a green jumper over a yellow shirt and is surrounded by a cupcake, a donut, a cup of coffee (or is it tea?), a heart, and a little yellow birdie!

Fragmentary armorial stained glass from a lost window depicting the coats of arms of the Bishops of Lichfield. The window was one of a pair by John Betton of Shrewsbury installed in 1808 at the west end of the Lady CHapel o Lichfield Cathedral following the installation of the Herkenrode glass in the remainder of the windows in the chapel. The heraldic windows remained in place until c1890 when they were replaced with the present Flemish glass from Antwerp (restored by Kempe) which better compliment the Herkenrode.
The Episcopal window (on the south side, from where these pieces originate) and the Prebendal Window (on the north) were dismantled and the coats of arms removed for reuse elsewhere, most of the shields from the latter window went to the cathedral library, whilst six of the Bishop's arms were reused in the south transept clerestorey, along with a jumble of fragments in bright colours from the architectural design that once contained them.
Fragments of the rest remained loose in crates stored in the attic of the nave aisles until it was retrieved in the late 1990s and brought temporarily to Norgrove Studios where I was able to identify their provenance. One panel has been restored from these fragments and is now stored in the cathedral offices in the Old Stables nearby.

I've been creating brooches from reused jewelry for a few years, but have only recently decided to pursue it head on. So much up-cycled jewelry has the "recycled junk, eclectic" look to it, which is a beautiful aesthetic. But, I wanted to make it more simple. I wanted to transform what I was finding, first by modernizing it without losing its vintage/aged charm. Second, by making the items look as though they were meant to be together. I especially wanted to have the balance of design elements such as texture, color, and space. Here are some examples of what I've come up with. Enjoy!

Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Landmark No. 476
__________
The Belasco Theater, 1926
1046 - 1054 S Hill St.
Downtown, South Park, Los Angeles, CA
Morgan, Walls, and Clements
On February 26, 2011, we were invited by the Los Angeles Historic Theater Foundation (LAHTF) to preview the newly restored Belasco Theater on Hill Street, in the South Park neighborhood of Downtown Los Aneles. Ordinarily, "adaptive reuse" is a dirty word to a hard-core preservationist, but the rennovations made to the Belasco are sensitive to the architecture, and give new life to an otherwise vacant building. Working with the LAHTF and the Los Angeles Conservancy, the owner of the Belansco has created a wonderful, and vibrant entertainment complex. Restored to Department of Interior standards, and adapted for a multitude of uses, this theater is destined to become a new Los Angeles hot spot.
The story goes that Edward Doheny, who lived just southwest in Chester Place, wanted a theater closer to his residence. At the time, many of the older theaters on Broadway were in decline and beginning to turn burlesque. On land owned by his oil company, he commissioned Morgan, Walls, and Clements to create two new venues -- the Belasco (HCM-476) with a close space designed for plays, and the Mayan (HCM-460), for musicals. The theaters were completed and opened in 1926 and 1927 respectively. They Mayan took on a pre-columbian theme, while the Belasco incorporaes several different Spanish themes, including: Churrigueresque, Spanish Renaissance, Moorish, and Gothic. Doheeny choose Frederick Belasco (brother to David and Edward Belasco of the New York Belasco theaters) to run the new venue. The Belasco's opening production was Gentlement Prefer Blonds. After the theater closed, it was converted into a movie palace, became home to the Gospel Temple, and later the Metropolitan Community Church (MCC), before being acquired by the current owner.
I love my little point-and-shoot Sony T100. However, in the low light of the theater I had to use the OSI setting. As a result the interior appears an erie Victorian red, even though it's mostly blue and gold. No amount of tinting would help, so the pictures are what they are.
After the tour we decided to take a walk around the block to see what other architectural treasures were in the neighborhood:
-- The Mayan Theater (HCM-460). 1040 S Hill St. Built in 1927, the theater opened with George Gershwin's "Oh Key." It was designed by Morgan, Walls, and Clements, and is only one of eight buildings in Los Angeles designed in the Pre-Columbian (Mayan Revival) style. The hand-carved wall scuptures were created by Mexican artist Francisco Cornejo.
-- The White Log Cabin Coffee Shop. Across the street from the Belasco is an amazing little piece of Los Angeles Programmatic archiecture in the form of a quaint log cabin. Built in 1932 and designed by Kenneth Bemis, it began life as the White Log Cabin Coffee Shop. Later it was painted red and became Tony's Burgers. Today it survives as the El Comedor Mexican Grill.
-- The YWCA (Woman's Athletic Club). 1031 S Broadway. Designed by Allison and Allison in the Italian Renaissance style, the structure is impressive but in sad need of repair. Today it serves as a home of the Los Angeles Jobs Corps.
-- The Herold-Examiner (NRHP-92000382, HCM-178). 1111 S Broadway. The Harold-Examiner is a Mission and Spanish Colonial Revival masterpiece, built in 1912 by legendary California architect Julia Morgan, for William Randolph Hearst. It is said she took inspiration from A. Page Brown's California Building of the 1983 World Columbian Exposition in Chicago, however Gebhard and Winters owe this more to a coinciidence of styles. The building's colorful domes and open-arched arcades are it's most notable features, but the arches were closed in during a 10-year strike that lasted from 1967 to 1977. The Herold-Examiner finally closed it's doors November 2, 1989, and the building -- still owned by the Hearst family -- has remained shuttered ever since. Despite a scare in the early 1990's when the Hearst family wanted to tear down the building for a parking lot, it survives in relatively good condition (thanks in part to community outcry and it's designation as both a National Register of Historic Places and a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Ladmark).

Subject : Signage for Re-use & Recycling Centre, Park View Road N17
Please see these two photos I've posted on Flickr. (1) and (2)
Both show stuff dumped on the pavement almost within sight of the entrance to the Council's Re-use & Recycling Centre in Park View Road N17.
Over the years I've complained on behalf of local residents living opposite or close to the Centre, who clearly suffer an increased level of dumping. I assume some of this is left by people who arrive when the Centre is closed.
But, I wonder if - given the high and increasing turnover of people in the area - it might be helpful to improve the signage outside so it is slightly more 'user friendly', welcoming and informative. How about a board with some pictorial information about what can be brought there? I've posted this photo to show the existing signage.

We were given two free reusable grocery bags at the Giant in Columbia Heights today. I think we're going to leave them by the front door to remind us to actually use them, in light of DC's new 5 cents per platic bag tax. We already have reusable bags but forget to bring them with us half the time.

The We're Here group visits Recycle, Reuse, Repurpose, Rejoice!
On of my memories of my dad is his extensive collection of tins. Many were pipe tobacco tins and all were filled with a range of useful screws, nails, fittings, grommets, washers, off cuts, scraps, leftovers and bits. Never one to throw anything away he needed to store all the stuff which might and often did come in handy. This recycling instinct included the tins themselves which I assume had belonged to a pipe smoker in his office.
This is an instinct I have inherited and cannot throw away any useful looking container. This tin sits on my desk and holds my memory cards.
