A scrapyard art project for my room

I'd been putting it off for a while, but I finally managed to put together one of the finishing touches to my room. I spent yesterday afternoon under the auspices of several Tecates, four quarts of bright paint, and bright sunshine in the Mission.

Essentially, the art project involved finally painting a chair I bought five months ago bright, Yves Klein blue; and making four cigar and wine boxes I bought at a scrapyard into display cases for a slew of antique toys, bones, and other assorted knick-knacks I've amassed since moving to San Francisco—
