At dinner the other night, Frank Traynor shared with me that he grew up with a little boy whos parents named him (first name) WICKER, (last name) BASKET.

Buzzing around purging this week. This summer is messy and it’s not worth the energy trying to hide it. I survived a trip to the desert to pick up an airstream trailer, identified and moved into a storage unit and filled the garage up with crap I’m parting with… details for our yard sale on the 12th are below the paywall today. Come one, Come all.

FOR MY ROTS: Diving deep into a SUNGLASSES hole and some byproducts of my current rehoming project:

FRANK GEHRY GRANDPA BEAVER CHAIR

BABY BLUE AND PINK 80S IKEA SCONCES

THIS JENNY LIND SPINDLE BED ALWAYS GETS ME GOING. IN SINISTER, TWEE AND EDISON BULBISH (HEADBOARD IS HEINOUS)

SUMMER CAMP BUNK BED

DR PEPPER FOR SCALE

SPAGHETTI CHAIR SET 3 BLACK ONE RED

POSSIBLY LOSING MY MIND LOOKING INTO FIBER OPTIC LIGHT ART?

PINK SPLATTER BULB SET

“Vintage Venetinaire Vinyl Valance”

FARROW AND BALL’S CHURLISH GREEN

COCO LAB THIN FLOSS OR EVERYTHING SET

PRIMARY + CHROME DREAM CHAIR PAIR

DANISH TEAK WINDMILL OVERPRICED SOMEONE SHOULD MAKE THIS

I USUALLY DON’T LINK TO FB MARKETPLACE BUT ITS CURRENTLY GOING OFF IN LA MAYBE BECAUSE EVERYONE’S LEAVING?

MARBLES ARE BEING LOST

Here are 4 groups of glasses for you. I’ve had IRL visits with Jacques Marie Mage and Garret Leight recently and can safely say that the freaks are alive and well out there. If you can take care of your stuff, I highly encourage investing in a pair of glasses from either LA based, made in Japan brand.
