The iconic image depicts the American actor Jack Nicholson at a very expressive moment. As a fan of classic stars, I really appreciate how the image is individually numbered on the reverse side with the photographer's name and the story of the image. The frame and mount included has a very sturdy quality, so I feel quite confident putting this up in my home or cottage without worrying about any damage over time. This is one of my fave new additions of art for home and cottage so far!

This canvas print features Red's Granite Mountain in British Columbia, Canada in the Monashee Range and gives information on its elevation and rise. I really appreciate that all Lifts and Bounds canvas prints are professional, handmade, gallery-wrapped prints. This canvas print available in several different colors, such as red, green, white, grey, blue, black, and beige, but I personally prefer the sleek and minimal look that the black color offers. Not only are these canvas prints museum quality, but they also feature UV-coating that is rated for 75 years. I feel very continent about putting this up in my cottage without worrying about damage or dulling over time.

I really love the timeless aspect of this print. I was able to pick out the frame size from medium to extra-large, the finish of matte or gloss, and the frame color and style. I really enjoy the look of this metal poster without a frame. This metal poster has is magnet-mounted, durable and made of steel. It requires no power tools to hang it, and is guaranteed to stay in top-quality condition for years to come.

The print depicts Sean Connery leaning on his Aston Martin during the filming of the James Bond 007 classic 'Goldfinger' by Guy Hamilton in 1964. I really love the timeless aspect of this print. I was able to pick out the frame size from small to extra-large, and the frame colour and mount option. I think the black and white gradient of the photo goes really well with a black frame. The black wooden frame is very solid, it is hand made with gallery quality perspex to protect the print and is ready to hand upon delivery. All prints are numbered and certified with the story of the image on the reverse side, and are printed on Fuji Crystal Archive paper to ensure a long life.

It is a framed map of Canada that is stamped with beautiful gold foil. It really highlights the details of the roads, rivers and islands that make up this beautiful country. The minted design is unique, truly one-of-a-kind. It is a result of the most luxurious paper and printing techniques. This print makes a wonderful addition to my cottage and is greatly cherished. I think this wall art would even make an excellent Christmas gift for those who love Canada. The art is available in two sizes, 10'' x 8'' and 14'' x 11''.

It is 31'' x 14'' x 2'' and features the locales of Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and Ontario. I love the idea of sailing, and how Lake Erie's flow creates the stunning Niagara Falls. The piece is ready-to-hang, pre-framed in a custom, solid-wood frame. I love the rich contours that are crafted from laser-cut layers of Baltic birch, it's truly a prized conversational piece and treasured heirloom. The main points of interest include the likes of: Detroit, Cleveland, Buffalo, Marblehead, Sandusky Bay, Detroit River, Lake St. Clair, Point Pelee, Long Point, Turkey Point, Niagara River, Niagara Falls, Chautauqua Lake, Pymatuning Reservoir, and more!

This is an incredibly affordable beck boat, and not to mention packed with impressive features for the price! The E18 is a larger member of the Element family of deck boats that's made for today's boaters. It has a hot tub-style seating arrangement with no less than three social zones where passengers can connect, complete with cup holders throughout the boat, and has a maximum passenger capacity of 9. In addition, it has deep freeboard and tall gunnels to keep gear secure while protecting passengers from water spray! I really like the helm. It has a nice and clean design, integrated cupholder, padded steering wheel, and a nicely positioned engine throttle control. Hydraulic steering is even offered as a worthwhile upgrade! The split swim platform is really neat, too. It is positioned on either side of the standard 60hp Mercury 4-strike outboard engine. It angles away from the outboard to provide more space ,and has a three-step retractable boarding ladder in the starboard side. Options like a stereo, bow and aft filler cushions, a folding watersports arch or a Bimi top to give the boat expanded capabilities are available too.

It's quite breathtaking. 2018-07-26 18:49:19 https://bayliner.com/models/deckboat-series/element-e18/ http://www.favething.com/l-brown/boats-for-the-cottage/2018-malibu-20-vtx-crossover-towboat/ http://www.favething.com/l-brown/boats-for-the-cottage/2018-malibu-20-vtx-crossover-towboat/ The 2018 20 VTX Crossover by Malibu Boats is dominating as king of crossovers! It boasts a Diamond multisport hull and exclusive Integrated Surf Platform, the 20 VTX would be perfect for the cottage! It has the ability to create world-class slalom flats, great surf waves and huge surf wakes. Everything I would want in a 20-footer. 20 feet may seem small to some, however the 20 VTX has a creative design from Malibu Boats that makes it feel spacious with room for up to 10 people, and any gear you may need for riding. The main attraction is that it is a watersports machine designed for the whole family! It's really amazing how a boat that skis so well can also create such huge waves for wakesurfing and waves. It's very agile and can output 450 foot-pounds of torque on tap. This would create great opportunities for the family to enjoy whatever watersport they enjoy, either skiing, surfing or wake boarding, in ways that other crossovers cant match!

It's a breathtaking design. The environment surrounding it gives off a beautiful feeling to it - as it's surrounded by mature trees, apple orchards, a beautiful water source, and mountain wildlife. The home seems to be made of two gabled structures, a garage and the main house, with a glazed breezeway. I really enjoy the palette of blackened steel, limestone and timber to the exterior's clean lines. The interior creates a very rustic yet modern design, and I would love to view it in person. There's just something about houses built with beautiful timber that gives me such a great warm, homey feeling. In the backyard, there are outdoor terraces where sounds of chickadees and historic water source create a beautiful escape. It's definitely a fave.

This is absolutely stunning, I love it. The mixed styles and mixed materials make me wish I lived in a home like that, or at least had a copy of the house plan to take inspiration from! The classic yet mixed materials for the mountain home appearance include wood and veneered fieldstone. The house is like a large glass box in shape and appearance. I really like the numerous spacious windows and open concept kitchen with a granite island. The stone and metal elements are repeated often throughout the home to really emphasize its "New Mountain" architecture. The two-story section of the HGTV Dream Home features a master suite, family room and guest rooms.They've even got a fireplace in the master bedroom! So jealous. For more information, I definitely recommend checking out the source website linked above.

Created by McLean Quinlan Architects, this home is clad in green oak boarding and weathered stone. It seems to be a rather simple gabled house from the outside, but the inside took my breath away. There is a central stair that divides the interior into two different spaces. In one, there is a main living room, and the other is shared between a laundry and mudroom. I can just imagine how much beautiful natural light the large glass panels let in, with a nice view of the garden in the back. The pitch roof allows for a double height room, and the upper level features four bedrooms and one master suite. The view from the master suite must be simply amazing. It is perched above the ground floor, which allows you to gaze upon the sea below. It sounds like a dream, and rightfully so. I dream of living in a house like this some day! 2018-03-28 13:22:57 http://www.favething.com/l-brown/news-stories/remembrance-day/ http://www.favething.com/l-brown/news-stories/remembrance-day/ November 11 is a day we remember.

However, their two-year-old found the painting during his absence and painted her own version of the subject. Inessa Garmash, not wanting Michael to be upset, fixed the painting, packed it up and gave it to him to submit. Michael handed the painting over for review and was told it was his best work ever. He was surprised to see the "new" painting and immediately recognized his wife's hand.
