On the road again....

So. We are moving, again. ugh, blah…pssst….ewwwwww. BUT, we are moving into a GREAT new place. Can you say Laundry, Patio, Parking, 2 Loos? Can you say that I can already tell we are going to be able to finally “nest” in a place? Can you hear my storage unit screaming with excitement to be unloaded and spread out? I CAN!!!! I have projects galore shoved up in there!

I need some Fabric Inspiration....any good sites to share? I have been here, but they don't have everything in the store on-line, and vise versa. I would prefer not to have to go through the design center, but I could. I just prefer more instant gratification.

Here is what I need: Coffee Table, Dining Room Chairs, Floor Lamps, Headboard, OR a creative idea for a Headboard.

Do we like Lucite?

Do you like my new project?

Well, this was my idea for a headboard: Wall paper the wall where the bed will be in the most glorious pattern. Then put a border of molding around it and paint the finished molding. It should roughly look like a rectangle. I think a square may be too high in height. Hope this helps!

1. Such exciting news! Further details please. Location? Photos? Scoop us.

2. What about hitting up Britex? I popped in there the last time we were in SF a couple of years ago. Lots of great discounted fabrics. Worth checking out at least. I end up googling fabrics I like online & seeing who sells them for cheap vs. getting stuff wholesale (never retail - gasp!) from the designer directly. I can get stuff wholesale if you are dying for something "designer" and can't find it cheap somewhere else.

3. What are the fabrics in the photo here? I hate that I don't know off the top of my head. I think I have been working this "science" job too long.

4. Love lucite. Where are you thinking? I love it all. I just saw a post of a blog somewhere about great lucite offerings - see if I can't find it for you.

5. Love the idea of a project. I want to redo my own place, but it is much more fun to help someone else. Let us help!

So exciting. Me thinks that a new place means a new addition may be in the works. Wink. Love.
