In The Mood For Dark Wood

I'm happy to be back in town! ;-)

I'm glad to discover I'm not the only girl into dark, masculine wood. Check out Nina's apartment on AT! I've always been into dark wook and masculine flair. I believe it derives from my genuine love for Art Deco and the Thirties style, esp. Hollywood's Golden Era! Here are a few examples I stumbled upon last week on the blogosphere:

an amazing collecting of Danish and German vases (unknown source).
