Stripes, gray and white stripes,
I love you so much,
I wrote this haiku for you.
I love you so much,
I wrote this haiku for you.
That haiku was lame,
I will try again. oh crap. out of syllables.
I will try again. oh crap. out of syllables.
Uh-oh, I smell another impromptu haiku contest!
Best haiku left in the comments will be chosen by a panel of judges (my mom)
and will receive something random in the mail from me!

Your Haiku made me laugh! LOVE the dresser. It's amazing!
Stripes like river waves
Flowing toward the wooded floor
Let it flow? Damn it.
Stripes bring a tickle
Needling through itching nose
Ah, ah ah HAIKU!
grey white grey white grey
this dresser for you today

I found you sadly
sitting in a damp garage.
Now you are stripey.
Kathy
stripes cascading down
glistening through the soft clouds
stripes make me happy
Drank too much rum drink.
I'm paying for it today
cause stripes made me sick.
Rippled, white and gray
no longer sullen choc'late
Modern is the word!
An ugly old thing,
turned beautiful by only
loving hands and paint.
Horizontal stripes?
No! You can't make me conform.
Take that stripe law rules!
This random haiku
Took way too long to complete
Like my last re-do
My morning routine-
Eat first, then better after
Makes my day pristine
Start Google Reader
Read Better After. Ha Ha!
Sis, check this one out!
Little Blue Lamp Sitting Atop
My New Striped Body
Ah Shucks, We ROCK!
At first I was brown
Then me and the chair got stripes
Now we're the shiz-nit!
Are you serious?
I totally want something!
Please send it to me!
I'd write a haiku,
but my four kids are screaming.
You know how it is.
This sounds better if you imagine a gong sound after the second line...
A dresser speaks of
white ripples in grey water
put away your laundry
Wide Grey Chevron Stripes,
And Integrated Handles.
An MCM Dream.
Beautiful dresser! I love the MCM lines of it and the paint job is perfect.
If only I had the FAINTEST clue how to write a haiku.
OH, but I did rhyme. Does that count for something? Of course it does.
Cool dresser.
I love love love love LOVE this blog!!!!
Sometimes one must shed
Ones outer layers to shine
But paint made you pop
Tired and boring…
With love a new ME reborn
Lively and stylish!!
Stripes brought first love
Then with horror,
"Does this make me look fat?"
-Rebecca :)
My brown tongue cannot reach
the caramel but now
I lap milk and smile.

i am so awesome

I really love this dresser and winning things is fun!
I am so confused
Are they stripes or big chevrons?
It makes my head hurt
Dressing up dark wood
Grey and white stripes make it flash
Dresser's Gone Wild!
Thought they were straight
then I looked harder
they were starting to wave.
Better After-help!
Mother in law in my home.
Am losing my mind.
I googled Haiku
Now I am educated
I can't stop doing it
So all the day long
I sit and wait for new posts
Thinking of Haikus
Now Easter is here
I wish for pastel redo's
Maybe you'll grant it.
Kill me now.
It's so late at night
Reading Better After Blog
Should be sleeping now
I Love this blog!
You used to be dull
Now, you're totally awesome!
Love you, grey/white thing
Optic Illusion
Are you really there or not?
Maybe the floor slants.
Chevrons are awesome
Even when they are subtle
They make me happy
You know something else?
Better After makes me cry
With big tears of joy
Each morning I wake
Make a giant cup of joe
And check the transformations
Then I get inspired
And out come the paint supplies
Hubby gets nervous
He likes when I'm done
And admits it is awesome
I win. Yes. I win.
LOL.

Dear chair: I hate you
Think you're so pretty?
My stripes are better
I hate you haiku
you are to hard to do
go back to Japan
