In July when artist
Hayley Gaberlavage shared glimpses of her
studio with us, a lot of people were struck by how great that long canary-yellow bench looked in her light-filled New Orleans space. Turns out she found the vintage leather piece in Atlanta at
Funky Junk.
Hayley says most all of her mid-century furniture has come from
Funky Junk (she enthusiastically recommends the shop for interesting finds at very fair prices) and the bench is her absolute favorite.
Shifting our eyes from furniture to iconic art,
Monet Water Lilies remains on view at the
High just through August 23. So, if you've not seen any of the series before, there are a little less than two weeks left to take curator David Brenneman's advice and try to experience -- if only for a brief moment -- a
"floating world." Check
this page for details on Thursday ticket discounts.

LOVE the canary yellow! I have lots of turquoise in my house and canary would add such a fun punch of color!
I love bright colors, such as yellow. It always brightens up my day.
Adore a touch of the bright and must now check out Funkyjunk.
Not familiar with that store at all. Will need to pay it a visit!
I am using yellow, just did a bath in a bright buttery yellow and am using yellow accents in my periwinkle bath! The shades of yellow just make you feel great, and of course you can go light and subtle, or bright lemony shades
When it comes to decorating, yellow is one of the most intimidating colors for me! Not sure why. But, I have decided to paint my kitchen mustard yellow...so I am jumping into the abyss! Thanks for encouraging boldness.
Funky Junk looks like a treasure trove for quirky, fun, eccentric decor---thanks for sharing! That canary bench is truly unforgettable.
Funky Junk is a great store! The tiny store front opens to a huge basement filled with vendors the first Saturday of every month, Enjoy!
