The pictures tell a story of a father and son. The son is either learning how to garden or being lectured by his father about his bad hairdo. Not sure which.
The paper is so delicate. I am always amazed that such fragile items remain so well preserved. It must be due to how they were stored...or forgotten. They came in a cardboard box labeled ASIAN RICE PAPER PRINTS GARAGE. Garage? Honey, could you grab the plunger? It's in the garage next to the Jansen sofa and the venetian chandelier.
This definitely makes up for Phil sleeping in today...
tikki tikki tembo... very cool. Can't wait to see where you put it!
ReplyDeleteLove that paper - your Husband knows how to pick a gift! I'm so happy to find your blog - I still have the issue from Cottage Living with your home in it....I just came across it a few weeks ago. You have great taste and from one mom to another - a great sense of humor, which is a must with kids!
ReplyDeleteThanks! Phil is quite the treasure hunter. I loved our old house...sigh. That shoot was fun. They were supposed to shoot this house but then went belly up. Sad!
ReplyDeleteStunning! I collected a heap of gorgeous rice paper art when we lived in Beijing. You've inspired me to post pics of them all...
ReplyDeleteoh my- you are one lucky cookie.
ReplyDeleteoh i just HATE cottage living is no longer! would loved to have seen your current house in it..the rice paper art is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I came across 5 pieces of Taiwanese Rice Paper Art work back in 1986. He found them in an unexpected place. I was wanting to find out if they were valuable but not sure where to start looking. Do you have any thoughts?
