Not sure what part of NYC you live in. In brooklyn on atlantic ave there is a store called "the better carpet warehouse" and we had amazing luck in their remmenant section. It is the scraps of large jobs and they are priced to sell. If you have a larger budget I believe ABC carpets has the same thing but with more designer carpets.

I have the same arc lamp in my living room. We got two of IKEA's TEXTUR table lamps in white and put them on both sides behind our TV. The trio lights up our entire living room and the shades on the IKEA lamps match the CB2 one perfectly. We get a lot of nice approval from guests about them. They are also all on dimmers so you can adjust for movies ect.

Yea. The IKEA in brooklyn is always crowded. I believe it is due to lack of "super stores"

if you end up putting your art onto another type of board before hanging it i'd recommend gator board over foam core. foam core is also subject to buckling but gatorboard is more dense and wont buckle. i had a friend that used rastorbator and mounted 8.5x11 black and white printouts on gatorboard then hung them all a .5" apart to make a cool mural grid.

dang! someone already answered. and here i thought my Wyoming upbringing would finally pay off on the AT website. Funny though, I just had a conversation with my gf last weekend about boot scrapes when we walked past a church that had them.

i think you should stencil in a gradient from the suggested paint line from AT to the ceiling curve. Do something of a halftone pattern that breaks from teh solid wall to the white ceiling. Something like this:

I used to really enjoy going to IKEA. I believe all of my recent frustrations and IKEA rage have to do with the specific store and its staff. I swear dealing with customer service at IKEA brooklyn is one of the worst buying experiences of my life.

My girlfriend and I have agreed to never get anything from there we can't take home ourselves. And i do love thy meatballs :)

I believe that Ikea Brooklyn will deliver up to 1,500 lbs for $79 dollars. If you live in a walk up that is above the 3rd floor it is an extra $15 bucks per floor.
