The Secret Life of Towel Bars





Our new spice rack was once an old, ugly, abandoned towel bar trapped in the wrong body.  I helped it find its true identity with some paint and a scrap piece of wood.  This was painted with some of my cat's fur glued onto a toothpick.  You don't need fancy tools or materials to make cool stuff. I just wanted a simple way to access our favorite @penzeys2.0 spice blends.
PS: Ignore the awful 1986 wallpaper!

Puppy on the label

Just finished this mostly blue and red #psychedelic beauty. Sparks have the most unique labels. Hello, cute puppy dog.

My Mind in Sky


Cute, colorful, and abstract---here is Steve Winwood's single Arc of a Diver.
This 45 has gone to live in another state, with some other vinyl friends.

Smackwater Jack

I knew that when I had Quincy Jones as my record muse that this one would turn out totally freaking cool. And it did.

The colors on this painted record are much richer in person.  The brown design is a reddish chocolate color and the background colors are a beautiful pale aqua, light blue, and dark blue.  The edges are an orange/rust color.

If you want to hear an incredible, mostly acoustic version of What's Goin' On (made famous by Marvin Gaye), then get yourself a copy of this record.  Unfortunately, this one was too scratched up to listen to, but there's always YouTube or your local record store.














Rachro Records in the house...

Have you been looking at my painted records and wondering what they'd look like in your home, framed?
Here's an example, using my recent "Sparks" painted record.

Angel Record: Sung in Italian

This little blue and red angel is bringing you some Puccini, and as much as I love the hard stuff I do have to admit my fondness for Madama Butterfly and La Boheme (I'm classy like that).
As I am wont to say, I only listen to one kind of music - the good kind.
This little angel is sitting on a record and whispering Italian pillow talk in your ear.
Shhhh.  Can you hear him?  Little rascal.
