Chinese Stool


Chinese Stool, originally uploaded by Cathy (Kate) Johnson.

The shed has a long-awaited addition! Back when I was building it, I thought of the shed as a kind of Japanese tea house or Zen-simple meditation place. Well...I'm me, and I guess I don't really do simple, having dragged in books and art supplies and rocks and sticks and paintings and one thing and another.

But I saw some stools like this one at Architectural Salvage 2 years ago, and wanted one THEN. Finally decided the shed still needed it, so we made a trip to the City the other day. Glad I did, it was one of only two left! The other was sturdier and simpler, but this one spoke to me.

  1. Hey Cathy- still can't get any emails through to you through both accounts- and facebook.... I had a few questions for you in my first email weeks ago (for a post, etc). 'Hope you're well...

  2. Hi Deek! No idea why you can't get the emails through unless you're trying to send too big a graphic? I did get your Facebook post, but I've been swamped with this new class for Strathmore and it kinda sunk to the bottom of my to-do list, sorry! If you ask your questions again there, I can answer them, though. Or try the email again?

  3. I'll resend the message in facebook's email when I get a chance- thanks! graffics attached aren't that big, and when even sending a mere text-only message, it says your address is out of commission- weird. Anyway, I hope you're well!
