Beautiful work! On top of more pictures, I'd love to see a floor plan! Is that master bath on the parlor floor or the ground floor? How did you work it out to have rental units while maintaining the flow of the house. I'm living in a similar set up, though not as beautifully renovated, and our bedrooms are on the garden level, and would love to see how you changed the floor plan.

This looks labor intensive, but you may have just saved my grandmother's Herend platter that my toddler broke last week. Thanks for being so detailed!

I'm not sure how the masking tape works exactly - am I putting it on the main piece of porcelain or the chip? Do I fold it over the whole "fracture" while it's setting like a cast/brace?

While I'm not a big fan of Sharper Image, my parents had a scale from there that was sleek and simple. I got it for myself and five years later, it's still working its (sometimes not so) magic. Of course, now I can't find it on their site, but it looked quite a bit like the Soehnle, but all clear glass.

I've worked with Gerri Hernandez on several different kinds of projects, including children's candids and she's great (and very reasonably priced)! People I know used her for family photos and were very happy with the results. She does both film and digital. Here's her website: www.gerripix.com.

Tell her Alex Farkas sent you her way.

Good luck,
Alex Farkas

Ooh, ooh, pick me! The chocolate/natural is lovely and so elegant, but we'll take any color combo.

My flowers and I would LOVE these!

I may be getting married, but that's got nothing to do with my interest in design and I'm certainly not looking to Martha Stewart Weddings to help me with my wedding. I've been thinking about this since yesterday when the news broke, and this is just crappy thinking on the part of MSO. I actually saw a copy of Living on my way to work today and cursed her smiling face. Maybe they're folding because they don't understand their own readership enough to sell it to advertisers. Weddings is not the place for us Blueprint aficionados. Grrr....(with sadness)

Is it too late to start?! I just borrowed the book from a friend while I wait for mine to come from Amazon.

I'm a total Cure virgin, but something needs to get my butt in gear so I'm hoping some deadlines and group motivation helps.

The thing is, I don't really have much of a budget, especially since we're hoping to be out of this apartment in a few months. I've been house hunting for 9 months now, and we're getting desperate. All of Maxwell's talk of clearing energy for change -- I thought maybe if I make my current home more bearable, a new home will appear for us. From the first few chapters, I can tell I'm a Deep Treatment girl. I'll take pictures of the apartment first thing tomorrow and post them on Flickr.

Must admit I'm a little scared, but that's probably a good thing...
