Hi Riian, I tried to get that coffee table "made from strips of wood"! I was so intrigued by the title of the ad - and laughing. I emailed the person within minutes of the posting and there was already a line ahead of me. Shucks.

It's a wonderful design. Anything that looks like potato chips is a winner with me. I think it would also look nice if you stitched the rows of felted circles onto a sheer or solid background fabric.

I think that's Victoria's place (sfgirlbybay.blogspot.com). She said she cleaned her flat for the previous renters in exchange for their lighting fixtures. She may know where they bought it. Apartment Therapy New York \| Good Questions: Similar Pendant Light? Flag this comment	10/22/08 1:59 PM
Wow Anh-Minh, you're so kind. Merci beaucoup for the post! I didn't know anything about it until someone who had read it came into the shop. In fact, anyone who comes by and mentions Apartment Therapy will get a special discount :) Thank you kindly, Sylvie Apartment Therapy San Francisco \| Store Closing: Blossom Home Flag this comment	9/12/08 1:50 PM

I never pass up a lamp just because it's not working. It's so simple to rewire a lamp. It takes minutes. Even if it needs a new socket it only takes a screw driver to connect it all. I get a lot of satisfaction out of replacing old cords (even if they are working) with beautiful fabric cords.

Merci Boomer for showing my chair as an example! I'm honored :) http://www.flickr.com/photos/sosylvie/543379252/ In fact, I had given Giselle a quote for reupholstering that chair of hers at $365. Such a deal. Good Questions: Is this Reupholstery Job D.I.Y.-able? Flag this comment	8/12/07 8:00 PM
Merci Beaucoup Lisa!! You are a great writer, and you have exceptional taste! Hi Becky. Someone at Sunset Magazine told me that I was on Design Public's blog (a couple of months back?). Maybe that's where you saw the blue dresser! I have a PDF of the article posted on my Flickr if you're interested in seeing it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/sosylvie/463606989/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/sosylvie/463606981/ And merci for the compliment Muhtari :) That's very kind of you. It can be frustrating sometimes, living and designing in obscurity, not having perspective on what I'm doing. I appreciate the support.
