I have a roman blind on my kitchen window as well. I really love it. That first pic is gorgeous!

Dykes Lumber carries all of their moulding in flexible form. Their catalog is online at:

For those of you on the west coast, Disney's Moulding Dept. sells to the public and has a lot of flex-mould options. I had heard a rumor recently that Disney sold their moulding catalog, though. I'm not sure as I haven't been working on the west coast in several years, but it's worth checking out.

Thanks for the suggestions so far!

manu_pty - my space is narrow, but not narrow enough to go with out a coffee table/ bench or something. I like the idea of ceramic stools - I hadn't thought of that.

femmeke - great idea about chopping down a console.

honey living - I am definitely open to two small tables. Just haven't found the right thing!

p(too) - I'll definitely look at R & B custom options. I haven't really explored that. It's funny, I sort of felt the same way you do about the Stash, I didn't look twice at it in the catalog, but for some reason when I saw it in person my whole perception of it changed and I fell in love!

Laina - that's exactly what I was afraid of. Nice to hear from someone who owns the table.

Thanks again and I look forward to seeing what else you come up with!

I've been trying to talk my boss into letting me use a ball for a chair - my Aeron chair is too big for me and therefore very uncomfortable. I often sit on a ball at home. Gaiam has a version with castors that they have been making for years.

Me Please!

This is so strange that people get weird looks for bringing their own bag. I usually get a thank you from the cashier!

STLcolleen: Target does have their own branded, reusable bags. I have a few that my mom gave to me. I just saw some for sale at the Target in Brooklyn last week.

Peppermint Hot Chocolate!

If you like stainless steel, Canal Plastics sells metalized adhesive-backed plastic that comes in rolls. It would be the same idea as contact paper, but with a nice brushed stainless look.

This is too funny. My family didn't have the Corelle, but I remember lots of friends parents who had this growing up. My parents had Mikasa with wheat and flowers on the center of the plates - I hated it, even as a child! Mom has moved on to Fiestaware and I'm still using a set purchased from Target in undergrad. Maybe I should do something about that one of these days . . .
