A Little Light
It’s my late entry. This little candle light warmed our table. I captured it when we held a dinner at a cafĂ©. It’s not a romantic dinner, as we had dinner while watching a football match in FIFA World Cup last month. Too many people screaming!See other black and white photos at The Weekend in Black and White!

A Board for Bills
The traditional pin board has its place, but, invariably, you find you’ve run out of pins or you’re treading unsuspectingly on one that’s ‘escaped’ from its moorings. An innovative design that employs elastic strips and bulldog clips in place of pins stylishly eliminates these shortcomings.Letters, bills and other ephemera are held in place by means of diagonal elasticized strips surmounted by a leather border. Both are held in place by stout drawing pins. Before securing, mark the border shape and strip positions on the felt with a tailor’s pencil. Glue may also be used under the elastic for added strength.
Hang the bulldog clips on nails or screw them to the board. The board itself is fixed to the wall using screws and cup washers. Brass ones would harmonize particularly well with the leather. Alternatively, the board could be glued to the wall with epoxy glue.

Brass Cow Bell
This brass cow bell is hung on our fence door. I prefer to have a brass cow bell than an electronic one. What about you?See other black and white photos at The Weekend in Black and White!

Key Cabinet
Who hasn’t suffered the nightmare of trying to find keys? This attractive little cabinet will complement any foyer and is large enough to provide storage for a multitude of keys. Its paneled door effect is just pure imitation but when painted, who would know?
It’s a simple box like construction, the top and base extending a little from the sides for added effect. Medium density fibre board has been used because of the case of finishing the end grain.Collect all the keys, check which ones are obsolete and discard them. Use a labeling system that shows which goes where, then heave a sigh of relief. Your key problem is over!
