Drummond Upholstery in Evanston did a great job on a chair for me. He said 3 weeks, but he did it in less.

I don't understand why you wait to order it from the site. Is it cheaper online? Why not buy local? I'm asking this honestly, not to be obnoxious. I am rethinking my own habit of buying stuff online and recycling box after box....

Chris Gaggero also does bike tours, if you're looking for a realtor! He is superb.

Does anybody know a good Evanston or northshore rug cleaner? Time to get an Angela Adams rug cleaned. (Actually way past time...) Thank you.

Link for DR table goes to a sofa, just so you know.

Wow, how did Lincoln Antique Mall wind up with a beautiful McCobb? I've been clicking on their Craig's List links for months and finding their inventory awfully dreary. They always capitalize MID CENTURY MODERN, though, so I've learned to avoid them.

I have a similar piece that was reupholstered in original Knoll fabric, but I bought it--after the work was done--at Broadway Antique Mart. It had been in the window for maybe 2 hours when we snagged it. You probably thought of this, but I'd ask at BAM who their upholsterers are.

Yeah. Not worth the effort. More fun to give out colored pencils.

I look at mags in the library. If a picture grabs me, I can photocopy it.

But is Catalog Choice just a way of giving your info to marketers? Can you register even if you don't want any catalogs, or do you have to choose something?

We started doing this about 3 weeks ago and keep a list on the fridge to remind us what we cancelled. More than forty already, which is frightening.

I would love if a post like this included the price of each item. It's nice not to have to click on it to find out. (And then be devastated!)

But Lovely's is slick. I like how this one looks handmade and roughcut. What I can't figure out is: are you meant to write your addresses on top of other writing/graphics? Or is the address side going to be blank? I love that the artist is using recycled paper; I just can't figure out how it works. It's a lot of money.

I also like the painting. Hang it, yes yes.

Love it! Does anyone have info on that apple-windowed cabinet in the first photo? I think I've seen it somewhere before and I'm swooning.

Jens, How do you wash those? How often do you need to wash them? Thanks.

I have used this desk for over a year, and I've never spilled. It's a great little number. I will use it as a TV table sometimes too, and my toddler likes to sit on it as well as AT it. (So you know it's durable.)

This is a nice counterpoint to all the work I've been seeing lately--particularly on Design*Sponge--that features flowers, butterflies, squirrels. I say this even though I adore Design*Sponge.
