Abandoned

There is an old abandoned school about 20 minutes from where I live and I've always wanted to go shoot some pictures of the poor thing. It's not that sad of story though; the school was just moved into a nicer, newer building a few minutes away. It's not like it became abandoned because the city didn't have enough money or children to keep it running. It is a little creepy though, and every time I looked up into a window, I expected to see some ghost child staring back at me. (I'm terrible with scary things; I've never even seen a scary movie. It's more the ghost and paranormal things than the blood and guts stuff. I started to watch The Messengers one night, but embarrassingly had to turn it off practically right after the opening scene...)

Anyways, I managed to take some pretty interesting photos with a new film camera I bought. I'm still trying to figure it out, but I feel like the fact that it was film kind of added to the old, abandoned feeling of the pictures. (Let me know if you see any strange shadowy figures...)

Weekend Recap

I hope all of you followers had a lovely holiday weekend. I know I did! The fourth was actually kind of rainy here, but the neighbors still managed to light up the sky:
Sunday consisted of insanly long, but equally exciting Wimbledon tennis matches and cutting/folding new printies for the dollhouse:

Mirror, Mirror on the Wall

Since my previous dollhouse post was so popular, I decided to show another new addition to the house. The bathroom now has a mirror! Hurray! When I purchased the mirror, it was an unattractive goldish, brown color that completely clashed with the rest of the room. So, I spruced it up with some white paint and up it went.

Small Dollhouse Update

Haven't been working on the dollhouse as much lately as I would like, but I did manage to reupholster a cute little desk chair that is sitting at the landing next to the top of the stairs. It's a kind of vintage looking floral pattern and I just love the colors!
