Don't Look Now, But I Think It Knows It
by Joi
Wow, this is one gorgeous desk. I suppose The Captain’s Davenport Desk
as appropriate for the office as it is the home office, but I’m not sure anyone would want it out of their sight. I think I’d put it in my living room and let everyone walk around it…. not touch it, mind you…. just walk around it.
From Design Toscano:
Wildly popular during the 19th century, this distinctively shaped Davenport makes you take notice as it rises from trim bun feet with ornate scrollwork that supports a hinged, lifting desktop. Eight interior drawers, eight brass-handled side drawers and a top compartment for writing instruments provide ample storage in an authentic signature piece that’s stunningly hand-carved furniture art. Not a bit of space is wasted on this versatile and stylish Toscano exclusive.
See the stunning The Captain’s Davenport Desk for a closer look. And, don’t worry, I was just kidding. Of course I’d let people touch it. After they sterilized their hands, put on the silk gloves, and bought their ticket.
I’m reasonable like that.

Johnny Cash in Concert, 1967

I’ve got Johnny Cash on the brain today. I’ve been listening to his music all day while working (except for a Kelly Clarkson & Jason Aldean sidetrack). Mostly I’ve been Folsom Prison and a couple of Rings of Fire.
When time came to post today’s office art print or poster, it was a no-brainer. Johnny Cash memorabilia is hotter than ever and his music can’t be beat, or imitated.

An Office Clock that Knows Where it's AT
by Joi
Clocks are somewhat of a fascination with me. They’re like lamps, we have to have them around us, shouldn’t we at least make sure they have a personality?! The
At Sign Clock
above has a huge personality, and a sense of humor as well. It’s an office clock that will catch everyone’s eye and will always be a perfect conversation piece.
This particular clock is from a website that’s become an obsession for me. They specialize in Retro decor and gifts. Quite frankly, I could spend hours, if I had them (and hundreds, if I had them), on this website. This office clock is latest fixation. I’m absolutely mad about it.

The Flappers Sculptural Bookends
I love quirky, unexpected decorations – whether they’re in the home office, yard, bathroom, kitchen… Anything that makes me smile when I look at it and makes someone do a double-take has to come home with me.
The The Flappers Sculptural Bookends, above, certainly fit the bill. Their from Design Toscano (seriously, do these people make anything that doesn’t make me giddy?).
From the Website:
The Flappers Sculptural Bookends (C. 1920’s) Inspired by John Held, Jr.
Quality foundry cast iron collectibles
No one epitomized the glamorous era of the Flappers quite like illustrator John Held, Jr. Managing to capture the spirit of newfound freedom in his campy illustrations for The New Yorker, Held’s work was born in 3-dimensions in this pair of heavyweight bookends cast in iron and hand-painted in his signature style. Choose this functional work of decorative art to enliven the décor of any era.

Coastal Drive Stretched Canvas Print

Sigh. Is this or is this not one of the most stunningly beautiful canvas prints you’ve ever seen. Suffice to say I want one for every room of our house. That’s not too extreme is it?
The beauty of this art print is the way it transports you to another place, another time – basically, somewhere besides the pile of things to do that mock you incessantly. You almost feel the crisp air that the couple feels and you lose yourself in their experience. Everything about it is perfect, from the color of her dress to the wheels on the car…. stunning.
