Antique Kodak No. 3A Folding Pocket Model B3 Camera 1906-1908

I could probably get carried away in Canemah's Etsy shop.  They've such a beautiful selection of vintage cameras, most of which are still working.   The best bit is they're not too astronomically priced.  The Kodak Pony above is only $29!!

Project Upholster- Before

Slightly scabby retro seat complete with suspicious stains!!!!

On a whim I signed up for upholstery evening classes.  Here's my first project.  I procured this delightful seat from S. Burns in Prestonpans. Head there for all kinds of junk you never knew you needed!

Arcade Fire- the wilderness downtown

Then see how they did it at chrome experiments.
