Summer 2009, in CT. Not sure why I can't crop the photo. Scanning issues, I suspect.

They say one's home is a reflection of themselves and yours is as beautiful as you. I've missed you, Wanda (along with many others!) and I'm smiling ear to ear after reading this...happiness is definitely contagious! Maryanne

AnnKH, 'bends but doesn't break', lol. Let's just say, it wasn't a break. More of a sever, that required reconstructive surgery. It was awful. Having said that, it's certainly the exception, but whenever I see people thinking about glass tops I do feel that it's worth a warning as a safety risk. While a table cloth may be more slippery it wouldn't be nearly as dangerous. Hopefully the OP finds a suitable solution. FWIW, we paid about $400 for 3 separate 3/4 inch thick pieces with beveled edges and rounded corners. They were made to cover a coffee table, sofa table and end table. We went to local glass company to have them made.

Hey gang. My latest project. $800 bathroom remodel done!

Hi all! Ugh, I'm SOOOO out of practice. I shrank all the pics because they showed up HUGE in the preview post. Here they are again, larger (probably too large!) Yes, the floor is slate, and yes, it was a pain in the arse to work with, especially since I was bound and determined to use some of the glass mosaic accent pieces in some way. Glass mosaic is super uniform, super thin, and super easy to work with. Using it right next to slate which is NOT super uniform, not super thin, and NOT easy to work with was a challenge, but I LOVE how it turned out. I can't remember the paint color, but I know it was a BM historical color, because that was the only fandeck I could find. :P I replaced the tub as well (which was by FAR the most heinous, horrible, difficult project I've EVER done. EVER. UGH.) But I didn't replace it with anything spectacular, just a newer, not stained and chipped version of what was there before. ::::Side note:::: Removing and re-installing a bathtub is a truly horrible undertaking, and I don't know if I'll ever do that one again. Ugh. As far as my gorgeous distraction, here's another shot of us at a concert: Working bathroom and a gorgeous distraction. Life is good. :)

He is so precious. I'll admit it; I'm "partial" to little boys. Not that I don't love little girls equally. But boys are such a hoot. Nothing is sweeter than a little guy about 4-6 (except Grant at every age!) And once they hit 13-14; they are so entertaining. One minute they're "all grown up, ruff and gruff he-man," and the next they're wanting to sit on your lap and be little boys again. I'm missin' my "little" nephew now. He's 22, 6'2", and just got married. I called him last week and sang the "Barney" song with him. Then he asked if I'd been drinking! LOL (No; I hadn't.)

How nice. I'll bet you wish you were back at the beach in shorts!

I agree with Dcarch, I like black & white photos. So, can you undo it??? yeah, I know you can't.

I am sorry apparently this is not a good idea. I have done it for many people before to enhance their pictures. Now I know that you should'nt do it without being asked.

I took it away from Photobucket, but it is still here.

As I said in the other thread where this came up, I had no problem with dcarch adding color to my photo. It was fun to see, especially given the fact that the waters of the Long Island Sound are more of a green/gray--never blue!
Please don't give it another thought.

Thank you for understanding.

Not making an excuse here. Just a lesson for everyone (and myself )to learn.
When I have fun in a situation like this, I always make sure that I never touch the faces, and the body shapes. That could be very "touchy" to many people.

But as I was told in another thread, "it does not matter what your intention is, other people's feeling still can be hurt"

So, Again, I am sorry to anyone who feels this is not appropriate. I was overcome with the beauty of that happy family, at the end of the day, with a nice dusk sky behind them.

Merry Christmas (And Happy Holidays to all the other friends).

I agree, you have a beautiful family, Jo.

I also like the black and white, which is good, I can't see any of the others, LOL.
