Borden Boxes

As you may or may not know, Nick and I own a piece of the historic Borden Farm. So finding little artifacts from it's heyday is always a pleasure.

I picture a chic modern country home (more specifically OUR *future* chic modern country home) with rustic Borden boxes under the sink, up on the shelf, next to the couch, etc.

We've already collected several Borden antiques, but keep your eyes peeled, Christmas and years of birthdays are upon us. (WINK.)

Roller Rationale

I came upon these skates (a couple of years ago?!) and my heart exploded. But alas they were too small for my utterly average sized feet. I listed them on Etsy, because I felt like some small footed human deserved the charm of these... wheely booties. (I think that's like the Latin term.)


As months went by and my price got lower and my inbox filled each month with my Etsy billing statement, I decided to keep the skates. Perhaps I will display them.

Although I fear the last thing my home needs is an addition to my already ubiquitous still life tableaux, freckling my domestic landscape.
