Yay…another installment of ‘finders keepers’ here on the Purple Nickel Blog!!! It’s been awhile and I do miss sharing all the goodies we like, love and lust over.   Or should I say ‘drool’ over. Well this little find comes all the way from Scottsdale, Arizona! Ok so that’s only like 2 hours away from us here in Tucson but who’s counting. We picked up this cutie on Sunday after hearing about Design Within Reach’s floor model sale!!! Woo Hoo! And all thanks to Gabe, the store manager. SWEET. He promised to hold this Eames Plastic Molded Chair for us until the next time we were up in Phoenix. WE LOVE IT! Yes we only have 1…so far. But can’t wait to start a collection. We need at least 2 right?. And it’s a perfect shade of buttery yellow lime. YUMMY!  And totally perfect for our production office or a studio space.

Speaking of studio spaces, we have been exploring that concept for quite sometime now.  Probably for the last 3 years… but again who’s counting?.  Oh me, that’s right.  Yes… it’s always fun to look and we keep our eye’s peeled wide open for something that would suit our funky creative juices.  But what we’ve seen is that they’re either too dark (meaning NO flippin’ windows), boring drop down popcorn ceilings, musty smelling like a basement, corporate stuffy office-like, no parking that’s near by or for clients, not located near downtown Tucson or is just plain out of our price range.  I’m sure other photographers and biz owners share similar experiences?.  It’s crazy how many ‘duds’ you view.  Honestly I would say it’s just as tough as finding your ‘dream home’.  You know it exists, you just have to be patient.  Or build it! Ha. Well until that time comes (building) we are enjoying our options or at least laughing about them!
