I know this is off-topic, but anyone know more about that dining room table? It's lovely.

I love the Santos bed as pictured on their web site. I'll definitely swing by the store, but in order not get my hopes up too high, any idea on whether that bed is under $2K? That table is gorgeous!

Thanks, Anusha73. While I would love to be very DIY, I think I will leave this to the professionals. This is a first home purchase and skim coating sounds a tad complicated. If you wouldn't mind sharing who did your walls, I will make a note and contact them when we're ready to move forward. We've yet to close.

Should I get rid of the old paint? I want to paint a 2-bedroom apartment but I'm concerned about the years and years of paint over old paint that have accumulated on the walls. Because I'm going to own this apartment, I want the walls to look the best they can and I am willing to spend extra to have this be the case. Anyone have advice on this? As I'm new to all this, I don't even know where one would begin to try and remove old paint and whether it's worth the hassle in the end. What do you all think?

Hi All:

I have an old six-drawer solid-wood "Horrocks" desk. I picked it up about ten years ago from an antique barn upstate when I was in college. I've been lugging it around from apartment to apartment with me since college -- has sentimental value as I was so proud of it when I got it as it was my first real piece of furniture. Now I'd like to refinish it -- and before I do I tried to do some research on the maker, etc. But not much luck in that category. Anyone heard of "Horrocks?" That's what it says below the center drawer.

Thank you!
