Sidewalk Pull-Out Couch

September 4th, 2010

Bookshelf Baskets

Weaving a new path

Someone who has moved on in life and changed locations has also decided to curtail their basket infatuation. Moving, like many changes in life, forces us to reconsider the decisions we’ve made in the past.

Sidewalk Dresser

August 20th, 2010

In furniture purgatory

This dresser discarded on a sidewalk is in good shape and most likely won’t be around long before someone lugs it into their apartment building. A second chance at life for an abandoned piece of sidewalk furniture. The story continues.
