Apartment Therapy - AT Countdown.....
11/17/07 4:44 AM

I was raised by a Disneyland carpenter who taught me and my brother how to use power tools, put up shelving and jugsaw cut all kinds of fun projects. Now I live in Texas, far from Dad and the OC, where my husband and I just bought our first home -- a hundred year old beauty in the heart of San Antonio. We recently adopted a stray border collie puppy, "Hopey" (named after the "Love and Rockets" comic books), who hid out under our house during a thunderstorm.

Now that Hopey's growing up, we need to build a fence so she can run around. She loves going for walks, running fast and sprwling out in the grass. Hopey cries, wimpers and wails every day when we have to lock her up (as we both work) in our small screened-in back porch.

Since I lost my beloved drill in the cross-country move, I would love to use these VPX tools to build a wooden fence across the front of our property with a cute archway between our pomogranate trees. You'd be making a sweet creature sooo happy and help reconnect me with my building talents.

"Hopey"-ing to build up sum happiness ;-)

Have u tried www.homedecoratorsoutlet.com ?

I've had great luck just typing in my needs (i.e. "chair") and seeing what they have. Picked up a super cute pair last month for only $60 each -- and another pair in leather for about $130 each. Nu stock comes in (and sells out) every day, so stalk them regularly. ;-)

1) Hello, I'm Pocha

2) Iron Vines in Cocoa, Flock in Gold, Bamboo in Tan

3) My husband and I just bought our first house -- a 1907 beauty in San Antonio. The ceilings are high and the scale majestic! http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s306/pochiluv/Entryway.jpg

Since we're starting out in a new town (we're newlyweds from San Diego) our furniture is minimal and our walls are a bit stark. We'd luv to liven things up with...

Iron Vines in our dining room -- http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s306/pochiluv/DiningWall.jpg

Flock over our mantel or on a side wall -- http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s306/pochiluv/Fireplace.jpg
or

and bamboo in our upstairs bath -- http://i155.photobucket.com/albums/s306/pochiluv/SisiBath.jpg

Thank you for your consideration...and for running such an amazing design resource!
