hey neighbor: jerry's apartment

introducing another fun little blog category: hey neighbor! nashville is so freakin cool - i'm not sure if y'all are aware of this! so i'm going to begin sharing some of my absolutely favorites in the neighborhood! 

so we'll kick 'er off w/ our actual neighbor jerry's apartment.

this week we're kittysitting for sweet lily while jerry is out of town. jerry was graphic designer back before computers & the adobe suite. he worked for esquire magazine for years and spent the 70s touring europe in a vw bus with his best friend. yup - he has some fantastic stories. and his eclectic lifestyle is reflected in his fantastic apartment.  it's stacked floor to ceiling w/ collections: wooden bowls, a variety of mismatched balls, coffee cans, printing block letters and fruit illustrations --- swoon! and how about that drafting table? i NEED a drafting table.

i never thought i would say this, but ... i love a good collection. clarification: when it's something old! like jerry's mismatched wooden bowls & vintage ball collection: check out my cakies vintage sap bucket collection. yum!

so what do you collect?
