A little off the subject, but where is your sofa from? I like it.

Wall lamp. Like it a lot. Anyone know where it might be from? Also, what issue of "Domino" is this photo from? Thanks!

I have a Statue of Liberty duckie -- my favorite -- that gets one of two corners in my bathtub. Perfect for NYC.

Can you provide the link to the NY Times article you refer to? Thanks.

I'm in Manhattan and there are no signs of any catalogs here ...

Amt230:

I couldn't agree more with your comment about how (some) people tend not to speak to the people they encounter working at our local businesses here in NYC.

In such a huge city, I personally enjoy being a familiar face to the woman at the dry cleaner, laundromat, Korean market (known as convenience stores elsewhere) and even the people at Starbucks.

Creating a sense of community is so important and making the tiny effort to do so has become neglected. I know it's off the topic, but that's one reason I like AT -- it feels like a community, albeit online, but nonetheless a community.

I hope more people will read your post and be inspired the next time they walk into the corner store or dry cleaner.

I have my grandmother's old Singer sewing machine table, but it's sitting in storage because not only does it not work, but I do not sew. I've been wanting to tranform it into a table, just like these (I grew up in Boston and have fond memories of the Middle East Cafe, although I can't specifically recall those tables), but I haven't the slightest idea how to do it. Does anyone out there think they know how and would you be willing to direct me to a website with instructions or just post how you think it might work? I would greatly appreciate it. (My email is my profile name at yahoo dot com.) Thanks one and all!

Probably a lost cause, but anyone know where the sofa slip-cover is from or is it custom? I like it a lot and it looks like it might do the trick for my small sofa. Thanks.

I've got to try to the grill pan method, too, seeing as how I can't exactly "fire up the grill" outside my UES apartment in Manhattan. I hope it comes out as good. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

What is the name and manufacturer of the blue paint you used in your bedroom?

This place is absolutely stunning! It's understated, but in a good way that seems to work for you (Alex). I love the garden. You are so lucky to have such a oasis in the middle of the city. (If you ever move, please let me know!!!) The herbs and flowers look ever-so beautiful.

I love the simpleness of the apartment. Lots of little details, but nothing too overpowering. The white kitchen cabinets must hold so much. I have to keep stuff above mine and wish I didn't. I'm still thinking of other options.

Question: Where did you get the pretty shelf in the bathroom?

Also, how did you ever make that perfect entertainment center? That is exactly what I want for my apartment and of course, I've been looking for months and haven't found anything close. Do you have actual instructions you followed and what is the level of difficulty? Would you be willing to post or provide a link?

Feel free to invite me over anytime to see it in person. : )

I just searched for the pain on the Behr website and no such name/color was found for Provincial Blue. Are you sure about the manufacturer? It would be great if you could double check. Thanks.

To decor8 Holly:

If you happen to wander back to your posting, I saw your suggestion for new chairs "swanky clear acrylic ones from target, also folding." I am searching for a clear, acrylic folding chair and I searched the target.com website to no avail. If you can find the link to these chairs and could post it, that would be terrific.

Thanks,
Jen

I like the bathroom a lot and noticed some details that I'd like to know more about, if possible. Where did you buy the bathroom accessories (soap dish, tumbler, toothbrush holder) set on the sink ledge? And I really like the unusual round electric outlet cover. Where did you ever find that? Please advise. Thanks!

I don't know if you'll see this, but what color did you use to paint your bedroom in those flicker photos? I love that blue.

Thanks,
Jen
