Plastic Wastebasket or Metal Trash Can?
When you fill out a guest room with necessities and amenities, choices need to be made. Someone has to pick the art on the wall. Someone has to decide the color scheme. A coffee maker brand needs to be established, as does the type of coffee selection itself. And, of course, that most pivotal of [...]
Metal Trash Cans & Other Necessary Supplies
Every office needs a particular set of supplies much like it needs a desk for a person to actually work on. They might also need a computer depending on what kind of company they work for or what kind of business they do. But besides these things they have other, often looked-over, items that every [...]
A Call Over My Leather Desk Blotter
“Hello?” “Hey honey. I got your message, sorry I missed your call.” “It is all right. How are things over there?” “Good, good. I just picked up the kids from school.” “Okay. Thanks. I know this is your vacation and all, sorry to have to be away. This was a last minute conference I could [...]
Using My Leather Notepad Holder
Every time I feel the need to take down notes I would jot down what I needed to on a piece of paper attached to my leather notepad holder. It is a very convenient desk ornament as far as I am concerned. I have a somewhat fancy pen at my disposal so it only makes [...]
My Friend and Leather Coasters
Some time ago I was at my friend’s apartment and we decided to just hang out there and throw back a few cold drinks. He took a bottle of beer while I contended myself with a glass of Scotch whiskey on the rocks. I took my first sip of the palette-pleasing and aromatic brown liquid [...]

A Metal Trash Can is the Sign
I love entering hotel rooms. There’s something about finding a room especially made up for you that is comforting, relaxing and maybe even endearing. The plastic wastebucket and desk blotter and nicely made beds alone make me feel justified in taking this vacation, as though I’ve earned it. I love flouncing onto the bed and [...]
Meditations on Leather Coasters and Other Hotel Items
I used to think about how expensive it would be to run a hotel. You need a metal trash can for each room, a desk blotter, and a plastic ice bucket. Even cheap hotels have framed prints or artistic works. Does each room have the same one? Where do they get them I have often [...]
Plastic Waste Basket And Growing Up
My apartment used to be a mess of stuff stacked on top of other stuff. I was drowning in old unread mail and food containers of varying shapes and sizes. It was no way for a many closer to 30 than 20 to live. My apartment was almost too lived in. No one who came [...]
