Mouse stayed with some friends of friends in Houston, and SQUEAK, people, squeak! They are artists and they have this incredible stone house--it's fun and eclectic and deeply personal and lighthearted. You can tell they chose every single thing because they loved it. My favorite room is their kitchen, which hit right on the nose of my favorite kind of style: coordinated without looking fussy, vintage without even a hint of force. It's all about happenstance. Oh this? I might say if I lived here, Oh, it's just a 1930s chamber stove. The top bit has an adjustable broiler for fish. Oh, it's nothing, I got it at a garage sale...**This is true. They actually did get it at a garage sale. And they put all those bottle caps on the hood themselves. If I tried to do this, it would look silly. Here, it just looks like cool artistic people had a spare few moments and touched everything with whimsical magic talented fingers.
P.S.--The. Curtain.

O what an awesome stove! I love it!
My wonderful old stove is the thing I miss the most about my Denver house. This one is amazing. Note to self: Keep eyes out for fabby oven.
I am in awe. THAT STOVE.
Gah! I think you must live in a special state to have a kitchen that perfect - Texas, Arizona or New Mexico are the only ones that come to mind. It's my excuse for why my kitchen will never be so adorable.
p.s. I am a little worried for the pig whose head that is.
Don't worry, he was a plastic piggie!
