Revolving art galleries
by chuckofish
Recently I bought a used copy of Novel Interiors by the blogger Lisa Borgnes Giramonti.
It is subtitled “Living in Enchanted Rooms Inspired by Literature,” so you can see that it is right up my alley. (My DP recommended it when it was published back in 2014!)
Anyway, one thing she wrote that caught my fancy right away was: “A kitchen windowsill is a revolving art gallery for favorite treasures.”
Amen to that. I mean, who doesn’t collect interesting things on the windowsill over the kitchen sink? Of course, not everyone has a window over the kitchen sink–the house I grew up in did not–but everyone has a windowsill/catch-all somewhere…
The welsh dresser in my Florida room also serves as a catch-all for favorite things.
Everything can’t be a perfectly curated tableau, right?
