the look is popping up everywhere, even in those pesky mail order catalogs that arrive at your house daily. the industrial look is something that makes my heart skip a beat. i don't need a whole house filled w/ stainless steel but little bits of it interjected into a space makes me happy. that is why when i saw the kitchen w/ the locker baskets, i freaked. that image quickly jumped to the top of my "favorites list". i found the article from country living and read the story on the designer, Aaron Foster, who created that awesome kitchen- everything was from ebay, home depot, or flea market fairs..... then last night, i almost died when i saw please sir's locker set...ohhh, how i would kill to have that living in my house! she spotted it in college and knew she had to have it! oh the possibilities that locker set holds!! so i am on a mission...i will be searching every reStore, flea market, and restaurant supply company (i have never been to one...tay get ready, we have an outing)....i need a little more industrial in my life...like this old metal desk from a french post office...wouldn't it be a perfect place to pay bills?!

Love this look, I am currently looking for lockers now!
Thanks for the link love! Yes, as you could tell I am madly in love with my locker set and think you should search, search, search for one too! I'll keep my eyes open - thanks again!
that grocery sign is the bombdigaddy.i wish i could shop like that. or i should say have the sense to shop like that! love it!!!
We love the industrial look as well, but don't want a whole house of it. I like the little 'bits' throughout the house. Industrial items we have found and bought are a locker, desk and stool, two baskets, a fan (that works!), a trunk, and the most recent, two sliding drawers. In our condo I think we have hit our peak, but I know I could add more!
