Yup, we have more Austin for you. Here we are at Jo's Hot Coffee, at the downtown location. With fun decor including this milk carton lantern, some sweet Bertoia (or Bertoia-inspired?) bar stools, and bright orange paper lanterns, the menu and outdoor atmosphere matched the level of joy the interior of this place brought us.
Nothing we love more than a comfortable place where you can order a coffee or a beer, depending on your mood.











I love Jo's! They have the best FRITO PIE.

anyone know... if i want to make these myself will the milk cartons melt (the wax) or catch on fire or something? do they need to be treated at all or can you just stick a bulb in them? looks so cool. want to try it.

michelle, not sure if it's the same light, but the people at wary-meyers made this kind of fixture a few months back for a feature in new york magazine. you can email them to ask your question: http://www.warymeyers.com/warymeyers1.html
i emailed them a few months ago to ask something, and they responded really quickly and were very, very friendly.
