Why don't you hang a Papier Mache Rhino in your living room?

I hung these simple white shelves in our living room when we first moved in so that we could display the "gun" Trey bought me last Christmas by Dallas artist Margaret Meehan. After we got the rest of the room in order, I felt we needed something above the TV. Originally I wanted a pair of antlers, but then I saw this Papier Mache Rhino head while perusing the Anthropologie website one day. It was made in Haiti from recycled books, and I think its the perfect artistic alternative to deer antlers. It really pulls the room together don't you think?

Why don't you start a blog?

I decided to start a blog after I began writing one for work. I enjoy posting pictures and news about what is happening in the gallery and thought it would be fun to do the same for my personal life for my friends and family to read. Everyone I told about the idea asked me the same thing, "What will it be about?" Well, I don't really know what it will be about yet, but it will be inspired by the fabulous and stylish Diana Vreeland. Her Harper's Bazaar column, "Why Dont you..." which started in the 1930's encouraged women to try new and sometimes outlandish things for example, "Why don't you... have an elk-hide trunk for the back of your car? Hermes of Paris will make this." And, I think if she were still here to encourage stylish women to do amazing things, starting a blog would be one of them. So I will try to post things I like, new places I discover, of course, good things I eat :) and I hope you enjoy and comment with your own fabulous experiences and outlandish ideas.
