Welcome to Feature Friday!

I love the unique industrial look of this. I also think it is great how it extends as a beautiful corner piece. I think this would fit great in a brick wall studio apartment.

I love the unique colours and design of this. I think it would fit great against a wall, but also as an extension of room separation how it is used in the image.

Welcome to Feature Friday!

These shelving units have great separation. They make me want to get a beach house with reclaimed wood. Also, a lighthouse to live in would also be amazing.

The communities have really grown and become impressive. The technological advancements are very obvious to see. Carl is wanting to learn a trade to be a blacksmith, but that would mean he would leave from Alexandria and go to the Hilltop instead. Carl makes trips to visit with Negan at night and talk to him, but he still wants to kill him.
