{things we love: made of new york.}

prince charming & i have a collection of tin ceiling tiles adorning our dining room wall. we carefully selected them from our weekend neighborhood market & were delighted to find that they are, in fact, architectural salvage remnants from buildings demolished in new york city. being the architecture geeks that we are, we almost piddled our pants to know that someone was making money off treasured details that were going to be thrown out. (you can get your own from their new site: www.ogtstore.com)

i was so very delighted to find made of new york, an equally brilliant & inspiring company that designs & manufacturers essential pieces from reclaimed 'manhattan timber', salvaged from old buildings in the city.

and it's pretty.
