Fresh From The Dairy: Illustrative Art Prints

Owning an original artwork (the kind that’s hand-painted and numbered) from one of my favorite illustrators is something I have yet to check off my bucket list, but until that day, I can still support them in other ways. I recently found out one of my all-time favorite artists, Marloes De Vries, also sells her work through Society6, which made me realize that many other talented artists and illustrators do as well. Here are some of my favorites:

How I Bought a Commerical Rental Property with the BRRR Strategy

I bought my 18th rental property in October of 2017 for $292,000 using the BRRR strategy (buy, repair, rent, refinance). It was a commercial building that had 0ver 7,000 square feet. The property was vacant and had been used as a dentist office and doctors office in the past. The property was for sale on the MLS for many months before I made a low offer that was accepted. I thought the property was a great deal, but I also had reservations because I had never bought a commercial property like this in the past. I ended up fixing up

Gaining New Perspectives with Society6’s Wood Wall Art

Society6 recently launched Wood Wall Art and we love how these nine simple Baltic birch squares give wall decor a whole new perspective. They come in three sizes (3×3’, 4×4’ and 5×5’) with keyholes on the back for easy hanging. All you need to do is decide on your spacing preference between each square. That, and deciding which one of the thousands of art created by Society6’s artists and designers to purchase. Here are eight new designs that caught our eye…

Has My Personal House Been a Good Investment?

I bought my first house in 2003 when I was 23 years old. I was not very smart about buying the house, and I bought it during the peak of the market before the housing crash. I did not make much money on that house (I actually lost money), but I have done very well on the houses I have bought since then. I have flipped over 150 houses in my career and bought 20 rentals. Part of the reason I have done so well on my real estate investments is because of my personal residences. There is a lot

FILAMENTO: An Illuminated Sculpture Made from Glass by Mayice

Madrid-based Mayice have created FILAMENTO, a hanging glass sculpture that spans just over three feet (one meter). The undulating fixture displays how light travels from end to end through concave and convex glass.

Made from a single piece of glass, the fixture’s form almost disappears when lit, revealing the filament of light that beams horizontally from each end. When the light is off, it becomes a sculptural piece of art that can be used indoors or outdoors.
