Material Remains

You might be able to see this marvelous installation before it comes down this weekend. In the sunlight, the envelopes catch the light and seem to float in the air. The artist is Spencer Merolla and the location is The Glass House, a small outpost of the Invisible Dog Gallery, on Bergen Street near the F Train stop.

Give us a film shoot…

Yeah, we’re very cool in Brooklyn, as you’ve heard. But when there’s a TV series shooting in a central location, we crowd the sidewalks and wait for a small glimpse of a star or any little bit of entertainment action. (They were filming Homeland and there was nothing to see!)

 

 

Outlook good

Green means go. Take a chance on a swell fella. Love’s in the stars today. Or, you could try the Magic 8 Ball again, see what it has to say.

The rest of the series is now complete. See more on Etsy. Click here!

A lot of arrows

It’s surprising, but when you look at this sign, it’s still not clear where the palm reader is. I think they mean 2nd floor.

She saw something, said something

This big smile is from a subway ad on which people are talking about how they saw something suspicious and reported it to the police. They are happy to be good citizens. The message: we must remain vigilant (even though suspicious objects are innocuous almost 100% of the time). You never know.

Free boots

This is so Brooklyn. You want em, take em!

Cannot predict now

Sorry, can’t give you a better answer about this guy. It’s all a game of chance. You could always ask again. See more on Etsy. Click here!

 

 

 

Getting around in the snow

There’s always someone riding a bike when it snows. Bicycles are the informal theme this week, fyi.

Pink Lady

Hurry and get on down to the Salvation Army on Atlantic Avenue to take a nostalgia road trip on this pink banana bike. Though it’s a little hard to make out, the chain guard’s printed with this beaut’s name: Pink Lady.

 

3 Kings Day

It’s the 12th Day of Christmas, aka Epiphany, aka just another Friday, but TGIF. These plastic figurines are nice and cozy in the living room, just steps away from the basement, where they’ll hang out until next December.
