Hello people, this week on the show itâs all about cork. Part of our renovation found us lining the walls of the office and eventually the ceiling in the kitchen with cork. It a wonderful retro 60âs/70âs treatment and itâs practical to boot! It makes a perfect memo board. The process isnât difficult â just a little messy. Contact cement is the adhesive of choice and itâs a bit like rubber cement â apply it to both surfaces, wait for it to get tacky, then fuse the surfaces together. As with last weekâs project, this is essentially a tile job, so plan out your tiles so the seams are centered on the wall for a professional look. 

This week on my NPR podcast weâre talking about collecting a prolific graphic artist â Vera Neuman. Her fashion and interior products are hot again. Be sure and listen! 

Donât forget to take a look at the Brini Maxwell auctions this week. We have two new programs running at the moment â little black dresses and sweaters.
