Tiny home

What a clever way of using the small space. The rustic wall works as a real eye catcher in the kitchen. Bunk beds for kids and the nook upstairs create space for some rest. The tall window brings in the nature in the bathroom. All you need is here- simply sweet! All photos by Lincoln Barbo...

Winecap Mushroom Harvesting

After a disappointment in amount of the last fruiting, a month or so ago. The Winecap Mushrooms came back in quantity! I shifted around some of their wood chip bedding which seems to have rejuvenated them.Wine caps taste better then a Portabello in my opinion. The heads can get huge but the mid size- think sand dollar- have the heaviest flavor. Large ones are GREAT for making sandwiches. As for the stems, they are rather chewy. DON"T discard them. ...

Roasted Red Peppers & tomato spread canning recipe

Pepper season is almost to the end and I have yet to get out & pick peppers. BUT when we have our peppers in Barn market, we discard ones that are not in their fresh prime. I feel awful when this happens and do have a helpful solution, {a parent of Panda's friend is raising pigs again next year & I'm hoping to combine resources with him- more on that later}. For now, I put aside the ones that we discard, in need of immediate use to Can some...

Purple

Until I was 12, my favorite color was purple. Any birthday gift that involved lavender, mauve or lilac was a hit. Then we moved to England and for four years I wore a school uniform of grey skirt, grey blouse, purple tie and purple wool jacket. I haven't touched the color since then. But recently I happened upon a photo of a home library with deep purple walls and, all of a sudden, I saw the possibilities. Sadly, I cannot retrace my steps to find...

Scandi patchwork cushion collection by Nina's Apartment, vintage furniture and Interior design, Aberdeenshire

I love Scandinavian fabrics. The simplicity of the geometrical patterns and the strong colours have been used for decades but are still so timeless and work well in most interiors - contemporary or traditional. Marimekko is an obvious name in the 'Scandi' fabric design world, but I have recently discovered Lotta Jansdotter, who makes the most stunning prints and whose fabrics I have incorporated in many of my cushions. One day I might try and design...

While WFB does have its fair share of interesting furniture our staff likes to occasionally look outside our current furniture bubble and see what else is out there. Today I came across a Brooklyn based designer Takeshi Miyakawa. The thing that caught my eye about Miyakawa during my design...
