Chez Moi

Many of you have asked and here they are, pictures of our condo.

This is the W.C. downstairs. The sink came with the condo and the previous owners had a very nice mirror in this room and it happened to be the only mirror they took with them. No worries, we had fun finding this one and we got it for under $60. We got this mirror at a great Mexican folk art store here in Dallas called Casa Mexicana. They import a myriad of Talavera pottery items and a whole lot of Dia de los Muertos sculptures. Brad and I guessed that the sink is also Talavera pottery as well; not that its rare or anything but its nice to know the story behind things.

This is the living room. We painted it "green tea." The rug is a new acquisition as is the leather chair that has a twin. Its definitely my new favorite room. The Stuart Davis print of "New York Mural" is something that I've had for many years. I saw a special exhibition of his work at the Met before I moved from NYC when I was about ten. The original is massive and I fell in love with it. My mom bought me a print, framed it, and its been with me ever since.

We've got more to do downstairs and as soon as other rooms get finished I will post them.
