BIG YELLOW RABBIT

http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-chGZ0x3OE38/TlwhhW_cZGI/AAAAAAAAbvE/TmEmCTMC798/s1600/add05.jpgI love this temporary sculpture by artist Florentijn Hofman in örebro, Sweden so much .....
It's constructed with the help of 25 local volunteers from locally manufactured shingles and wooden armature and depicts a giant plush rabbit that has been seemingly dropped into the center of the Swedish plaza.

A LITTLE RENOVATION

We took out our internal windows today ....
it's something we have been going to do forever ...
years ago, before we extended they were actual windows looking onto an old deck .... with the french doors you can see as the doorway.
We moved the doors to the new room but always kept the windows because I liked it that way, but it was time for a change and a bit more space ....

this is just before the glass went ....
there are a few shots of the old look on this post .....

 and this is after .....








 .... we have a bit of filling and painting to do now, but I think I like it better ....
(well it's a bit late now if I don't)
 at least I won't have to clean the glass anymore, 
little visiting fingers loved it !!!
