It is a very nice effect that work extremely well with the simplistic and minimal style of the place. The kitchen also includes metal cabinets and retro, industrial lamps. This industrial approach is making  the overall look even more unique and chic. How do you like it?<br /><br /><a href="http://www.ahre.se/till-salu">source</a>

This One's for the Fellas: Perfect Bachelor Pad Accessory

<div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: left;">This week I'm staying with my boyfriend in Halifax, and let me just state that the apartment is the epitome of student bachelor pad. While the boys might not be getting the award for super chic (or super tidy for that matter), their place showcases an eclectic mix of leather furniture, big screen TVs, and sports memorabilia. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF2pDpty4_11AzFd5E4uhPU4Of1_S48pLmcCP8fFWkjc1Kxfu2BjmIc0hFk9tkbbepoCAPkNL_G4FmDWxRl8QJxVTH1O9SHXv40ajneIAypCcoVbLxsGhkaOMmaRKXyqvv8MrfxK_bcAY/s1600/006.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF2pDpty4_11AzFd5E4uhPU4Of1_S48pLmcCP8fFWkjc1Kxfu2BjmIc0hFk9tkbbepoCAPkNL_G4FmDWxRl8QJxVTH1O9SHXv40ajneIAypCcoVbLxsGhkaOMmaRKXyqvv8MrfxK_bcAY/s400/006.JPG" width="256" /></a></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">One piece of theirs that I am especially drawn to is an old Alexander Keith's chalkboard that they have hung up on the wall. This piece was being thrown out by a local pub due to damage in one corner, and so the roomies claimed it for their very own. You can find similar items by inquiring at local pubs, restaurant suppliers, antique shops, and online vendors.</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace; text-align: center;">Alexander Keith's is a famous beer brewed in Nova Scotia, so the piece incorporates the area's history, along with style and function all in one. I can see the boys getting a lot of great use out of this piece:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdEeeR9yfB4HO-mjwjMwRRJwfpIKCi8AR3eiZgCQHc7XyRRAIzroX5NFem32xK7mOLhAMEAJlCZ83A-PaMJ-cApHhLwS3raEczVB4fRYCSqF4aint7LJF7fd0oQL0A0IOhHaeYSniobN0/s1600/chalkboard+uses.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhdEeeR9yfB4HO-mjwjMwRRJwfpIKCi8AR3eiZgCQHc7XyRRAIzroX5NFem32xK7mOLhAMEAJlCZ83A-PaMJ-cApHhLwS3raEczVB4fRYCSqF4aint7LJF7fd0oQL0A0IOhHaeYSniobN0/s1600/chalkboard+uses.jpg" /></a></div><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">They haven't styled around the piece in any real way, so I got a little bit creative and put together a board of how to really polish off this look:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEiPapnNOvAla8fXPP_vs4TxYOr-bsUF4_dneM3Vgqb2-was7I0BYud-yQLj3yYqazC5-5OQTWidBsKXo5SW9P4uPPwsNcQedglisJYURrxBmGuGPSMxIw9lyEsUpOHa2-XaA83fCRYJs/s1600/bar+cart+vignette.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="211" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhEiPapnNOvAla8fXPP_vs4TxYOr-bsUF4_dneM3Vgqb2-was7I0BYud-yQLj3yYqazC5-5OQTWidBsKXo5SW9P4uPPwsNcQedglisJYURrxBmGuGPSMxIw9lyEsUpOHa2-XaA83fCRYJs/s320/bar+cart+vignette.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH2aKjoPQv7yyPGapMMgv5ephKmGoJc6kS0qVVDTrre5hi7db8GMfSMnflpbnS1hcucuQWDqIzdaTPS6RHsfSjiYdzdqMJMG0kGbAS8A6M2EjNyKik224khP411Z51IwHmSkxuuGJKuY4/s1600/bachelor+vignette.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH2aKjoPQv7yyPGapMMgv5ephKmGoJc6kS0qVVDTrre5hi7db8GMfSMnflpbnS1hcucuQWDqIzdaTPS6RHsfSjiYdzdqMJMG0kGbAS8A6M2EjNyKik224khP411Z51IwHmSkxuuGJKuY4/s1600/bachelor+vignette.jpg" /></a></div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">Create a masculine, purposeful vignette by adding a dark bar cart that can easily be wheeled around for entertaining. A black lamp helps to break up the whiteness of the rental walls, and a metal bar stool and pendant emphasize a manly, industrial vibe. Stack some sports books and cocktail recipe books on top.  Finish off the look by adding a stainless steel  ice bucket, beer glasses, and of course alcohol to compliment the restaurant theme of the chalkboard.</div><div style="font-family: "Courier New",Courier,monospace;">What do you think?
