Hi Robino032, I hope you get back and read this! I originally purchased mine at Pier 1 a while back so not sure if they still have them or not. I did a google search and it looks like matchstickblinds.com, the 'BL802 Series' looks very much like what I have, and they come in the wide widths. Very inexpensive, but I hope you can still find them locally.
Make sure you leave enough string length at the top and bottom to secure the bamboo once you trim the shade to the panel size you want. I secured with very small nails at the top and along the vertical strings to the bottom. Since my panel comes out 2" from the wall, I was able to secure as needed at the top as much as possible since it was not visible which made the rest of the installation a little easier. I hope this helps!

Hi DigNDesign, the woven light fixtures I bought from ebay as a hardwired hanging pendant a couple years ago, but I just used the shades in both the entry and hall. Sorry but even the seller no longer has an account with ebay and I dont have any further resource info for you...
The stools are from designer Hans Sangren Jakobsen that I bought on clearance from DWR about 7 yrs ago. Unfortunately when I did a search on google they are now almost 4 times the price that I paid.

Hey Froggy!
OK at first I thought, "Here is some constructive criticism, I can take it, bring it on!" But I dont understand, why would you EVER think I would be sarcastic? Little ol' me? Nooooo. I am just one fun lovin' dude that likes to use you as a vehicle for personal entertainment, just for a few laughs... That's all

I was lucky enough to get both the coffee table and the sofa (R.M. Schindler designs, but not the cushions and pillows) for a song from my job a while back. They were replacing them in one of the stores.
Thanks Amberle for your nice comment :)

Hi Sillybug,
This is Mike of 'MikeZ'. The 'Gallery Stool' was designed by Hans Sandgren Jakobsen. My online searches unfortunately showed that they are about 3 times as much than what I paid, and I got them at least 6 years ago on clearance from DWR. Currently I found them available on nova68.com
Let me know how your search goes.

To Daily Decorator, Its interesting that you mention the little pop of blue because I actually do have that in a painting on the wall to the left of the living room photo that you see! Including a clear glass blue vase. Hmmm looks like we are on the same page! I wish I was able to post more photos....
