Melody's Musings

Stuff that catches my fancy and random, sorted thoughts from the inner scrambles of my mind.

What you may expect to find here are what I consider good taste and some of the best in photography, philosophy, humor, art, architecture, food, music, poetry, literature and dance. I hope you like some of the things I enjoy.

I like anything to do with good design such as interior design, architecture, photography, and art. I enjoy philosophy and psychology. I love to figure out what makes individuals tick. Music of most all types but particularly classical, world, pop, acoustic guitar is a big part of my life and add some dance to the music and my day is great! I like to write and occasionally I will write poetry and I really love to read it out loud and I even record it sometimes.

I'm a Myers-Briggs type ENFJ which means I love people and have a great interest in them.

I guess you could say I'm a humanities kind of person. :)

     Table Talk 
Give a side table new voice with old letterpress blocks added to the top. Look for the blocks at thrift or antiques stores. Glue the blocks to the tabletop, then add a new piece of glass. Have a local glassmaker produce a smooth-edge piece that fits exactly or slightly larger than the table base.
Editor’s Tip: Ask the glassmaker to determine what thickness the glass should be given your table size. Also, ask whether tempered glass, which is safer in case of breakage, might be a good option.
