Mid-Century Midwest: Mid-Century DIY: Retro Planter
http://midcenturymidwest.blogspot.com/2012/03/mid-century-diy-retro-planter.html
Friday, March 2, 2012. Mid-Century DIY: Retro Planter. Are you sick of boring, generic plant pots from big box stores? Tired of trolling Craigslist for mid-century planters and coming up empty-handed? How about paying over $150 for a reproduction bullet planter? Finding retro-modern planters can be an arduous and expensive task. Today I'm going to show you how to whip one up in a matter of an afternoon and at a cost of about $16. Bel Air Bamboo Planter (Lowes - Item #293923). Drill Bits (1/16" and 15/64").
Mid-Century Midwest: February 2015
http://midcenturymidwest.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. Fiber art: some hate it, some cant get enough. If you fall in with the latter crowd, but cant find any fiber goodness in your area, you might want to check out your local Target. Yep, Target, the prolific purveyor of cheap dsigner-inspired home goods, has taken another formerly-niche decor item and brought it to the masses. I saw this display while out shopping for moving pads and thought that it was just too good not to share. Labels: Brazilian Fiber Art. House Tour - 8/27/13.
Mid-Century Midwest: September 2014
http://midcenturymidwest.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 24, 2014. Hey guys. Its me again. Just thought Id pop in with an few updates now that were heading into Fall. The great St. Louis MCM drought of 2014 continues unabated, but Ive still managed to ferret out a couple of goodies this summer. Strangely, theyve all been either Architectural Pottery-style planters or Modeline lamps, both of which were relatively hard to come by in years past. Mid century modern planter.

Mid-Century Midwest: Is it "Jax" or "Jacks"? Somebody needs to clear this up.
http://midcenturymidwest.blogspot.com/2012/01/is-it-jax-or-jacks-somebody-needs-to.html
Monday, January 23, 2012. Is it "Jax" or "Jacks"? Somebody needs to clear this up. Bill Curry Jax Doorstop. Ahhh, the jax bookends and doorstops. I've been looking for a set of these little guys for a while, but the number one rule of thrifting (if you are seeking for something specific, you'll never find it), as always, has held true. Surely they must be fairly cheap on Ebay or Etsy, right? I mean it's just a simple painted cast iron form. Reserve price of $250? Bill Curry Jax Coffee Table. Bill was my ...

modchester: September 2013
http://modchester.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Saturday, September 14, 2013. This post has been a long time in coming.nearly 3 years, actually. As I mentioned in my last two posts here. The next set of options- the "membrane group" didn't seem aesthetically appropriate for this house. Our roof is low-slope but visible, and I thought a membrane would detract from our house (and our neighbors too). The next option was rolled asphalt roofing- I basically felt the same way about this as I felt about the membrane.
modchester: Kitchen Updates--Part 2
http://modchester.blogspot.com/2013/01/kitchen-updates-part-2.html
Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Monday, January 28, 2013. Kitchen Updates- Part 2. Our drapes when they were open. We had walls of drapery when they were closed. These drapes were pinch pleated (triple pleats) and I cannot imagine how much fabric it must have taken to make these. The fabric was a nice imported linen- very high quality- although they were faded a bit at the edges on the east-facing windows. We started stripping the wallpaper- subject of another post. Kitchen Updates- Part 2.
modchester: June 2014
http://modchester.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Monday, June 2, 2014. Oh yes we did. We painted the paneling. Things have gotten pretty much back to normal for me which means I've been busy, busy, busy. If you haven't been following along, I had my hip replaced on 10/23/13 (because of hip dysplasia. As the title of this post says, we painted the paneling. And before any paneling purists out there say "why did you paint the WOOD? The paneling was not solid wood like the teak or mahogany walls you see in some ...
modchester: June 2013
http://modchester.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Friday, June 28, 2013. Beautiful Mid-Century Beach House. I have a love affair with the beach. It might sound odd considering I live in Rochester, NY and we're nowhere near the ocean. Around here, people think the beaches around the great lakes count as going to the beach. This includes my Buffalo born and bred husband. While I'm sure there are nice places around the great lakes, they pale in comparison to going to the ocean to me. Friday, June 21, 2013. I thin...
modchester: December 2013

Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Monday, December 16, 2013. Finished Metal Roof Pictures (and more metal in my life). So onto the other metal in my life- the roof. Our roof took a while to finish because the company was working on a local green addition to a school simultaneously, but it's done and it's gorgeous. Here are some pictures from different angles. (And no, I wasn't on the roof! That was hubby's job.). BEFORE PICTURE: Can you believe this? To quote Holmes on Homes. My husband got up ...
modchester: October 2013
http://modchester.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Sunday, October 20, 2013. Tuesday, October 8, 2013. And so it begins. Tear-off began last Thursday. I was actually in Ireland on business, so I didn't witness it, but my husband said that they found full ice and water shield under the shingles. If that is true for the entire roof, then it further confirms my feelings that you shouldn't put shingles, even with full ice and water shield, on a roof pitch this low. New ice and water shield. Yay for more insulation!

Falling in love with our mid-century ranch. Thursday, January 1, 2015. Master Bedroom Redo (again). I cannot believe it's been so long since I've posted. I had to take a bit of a break last year but I'm back and I hope to post a bit more often again. Master Bedroom (BEFORE). Awesome retro bedroom. Love the twin beds and tailored bedspreads! This is actually the third time we've repainted this room in 4 1/2 years. I know. Good thing we do our own painting. The first time it was a mint green co...The only ...

Memoirs of a Middle Eastern Mid Century Mermaid
Memoirs of a Middle Eastern Mid Century Mermaid. Drop me a line. Trad is Rad: I got you under my skin. August 17, 2015. August 17, 2015. I got my first tattoo at 18, all wide eyed and excited about the permanence of my new body mod. It was a relatively simple design in between my shoulder blades, easily hidden by a singlet and unimpressive at best. Safe. Boring. The dream catcher/infinity symbol of its time. For years people didnt even know i had a tattoo. After all. Some of my pieces. They say you can&#...

Mid-Century Midwest
Tuesday, February 16, 2016. Hello all. You probably noticed that updates to this place dwindled and then stopped rather suddenly a while back. Sorry for leaving you hanging, but my father suffered a rather severe stroke and my workplace has been dealing with, essentially, one continuous series of disasters for the last couple years. It has been a trying time, but I hope that we will pull through. Monday, February 16, 2015. Fiber art: some hate it, some cant get enough. Labels: Brazilian Fiber Art. Im bac...
