Very few if any upholstery manufacturers make their own cushions, it is outsourced. So one cushion fabricator could make the cushions for a number of upholstery manufactures. Also upholstery manufactures could source their cushions from different fabricators depending on the what that particular fabricator specializes in. So you should be able to order the Lee Ind. down cushions, maybe try calling Lee Ind. direct. Now some interior design firms will sell you everything at costs but charge you an hourly rate plus a percentage. Having a custom sofa made by a local shop through a interior designer maybe less than you think. And you get to set in it before their finished making and adjust the cushioning to your needs. And Of course endless fabric selections. But their are many upholstery manufacturers in and around Hickory NC that should be able to provide this sofa, just take some searching on your part.

OK, here goes, advice appreciated: My sheets arrived today (I ordered them on the 16th, took 10 days). I thought one of the pillow cases and the fitted sheet seemed off color compared to the other 3 cases and the flat sheet. But I thought maybe its just me and into the wash they went, on warm with 2 Tbs Vaska detergent). Once they dried it was very obviously different. The fitted sheet is a dark slate gray and the others are a cocoa-y brown. They are also HORRIBLY wrinkled, I mean REALLY, REALLY wrinkled. I keep reading here about WE's wonderful customer service. Is this something I should pursue? I really don't want to have to spend $$ to ship back or go thru the bother. Suggestions? TIA, Cathi

I actually had a Pottery Barn jute rug that was almost identical to the West Elm rug you are referencing. I cannot say it was "soft" but it was also not scratchy. The particular rug I had was purchased about 7 years ago and it held up wonderfully. As a matter of fact, I just sold the rug a few months ago and the person who bought it thought it looked barely used! Well worth the money for the look!

Hey Pipdog, I've been enjoying watching you make such stylish and swanky progress on your home. I, too, love those nightstands. Not for a grand, though. These nightstands have a similar look and feel, maybe not quite so glam, Hollywood Regencyish? But, more mid-century mod... but I do feel they can be used effectively to create the same sort of vibe you're going for. Maybe change the knob to a drop dead gorgeous drop pull in a silver tone? I dunno... I'm likin' both of these, maybe you would, too? Plus, 250 compared to a grand! Hope this works. (It worked, just fine, in preview mode) The alternate nightstand is from West Elm. And, FWIW. I think you can make anything work...and work well! Sea
