I just love the colors and the arches. I did check out the link for other pictures. So you just rent it as a bnb? You don't really live here full time? The building itself is gorgeous also.

@Keira -isn't asking a female why she needs a lot of closet space like asking a computer nerd why he needs more than 1 GB storage on his computer? Answer is obvious. You must have a very limited wardrobe.

I hired college students from CL and they were great and cheap, took care of renting the truck and took good care of everything. It doesn't matter if it is a professional commercial company or a couple students, you will end up with someone bad at some point in either case. My parents had a bunch of expensive stuff stolen from Mayflower movers one time. Some of the biggest scams come from the professionals-especially the one when they get there and say you own thousands more and hostage your stuff till you pay them.

My addiction to vintage linen sheets started the first time I slept on one at a friends house. I only buy ones that are about 40 - 50 years old, this way they are broken in and feel like heaven! I usually get them from either ebay or etsy, I have never paid more than $60 for a sheet. I have been lucky so far, I have never received a "bad" one yet (knock on wood), and if you order from someone in France on ebay, you can get a great quality vintage linen sheet for a great price. Ordering from France can take about a month to receive a package and the shipping can be a little high due to the fact that pure linen sheets can be quite heavy. Still, it beats paying several hundred dollars for a new one and they are already perfectly soft!
