Comments on A backyard suit of armor, a Hello Kitty house, and a Portal cake platter

  1. I am in LOVE with the outdoor day bed. But I have so many questions! What if it rains? How do you deal with the dust/pollen/other detritus that must get all over it?

    • hi victoria, the part above the bed is roofed, so i don’t need to get in panic if it rains. the bed consists of selfmade benches, which can be arranged as sitting options or like a daybed. i didn’t have problems with the polen or foliage so far, we’re not allergic to them. i think in fall the benches will go under the other terrace that have a firplace and is also completely roofed without plants.

      let me know if you have more questions

    • That would have scared me to bits. I would have dubbed it the “Bee counter”, constantly quoted Eric Idle, and always been just a teensy bit scared to use it. I’d have the irrational fear that a stray super-bee would be left behind to seek revenge.
      Bravo to you for being more rational than I am.

    • hi jenny, cute armor suit! 🙂
      to the daybed i just answered it to victoria, so i will just copy if you don’t mind:

  2. I really love the look of stainless counters/things with more rustic looking kitchens. We have a 70’s-ish kitchen, and really like the way that our stainless appliances make it look modern but loved-in, and can’t wait to get our stainless island to complete the look. Thanks for posting some inspiration for us!
