bac717 - I used a furniture website room planner to create the floorplan. I found it very easy to use and it allows you to name and save multiple floorplans. The website alows you to print the floorplan as well as email - but in order to get a picture of it - I used a screen capture program (screenprint32 - search on downlaod.com) the screen capture program can be set up to select the area of the screen you want copied and then you can either set it up to print it automatically or set it to save the file. I use the save file feature - then I upload to my online web storage and post here. Hope that helps... url for roomplanner is below. Here is a link that might be useful: Room-Planner website

Paintergirl - The rug is in and it looks fabulous! And it was on sale - originally $100 and got it for $75! *high fives you* Yes- we have a Michaels here and it's pretty close by. The painting is 36X36, so how long would the panels have to be? The drawing looks fab, but the chair would be a lot taller than the panel on the left-hand side. Do we shorten the panel, or would it still be okay? I asked my husband if he could make a frame and he wasn't sure if he could make it perfect. He is semi-handy, but it is not his area of expertise. And I am no help....lol. Lisa - Thanks for all of the compliments. And I am so lucky to have these wonderful people to help me with the room. I never expected this much help and I am beyond thankful! The loveseat is a little longer than the wall, but the furniture is temporary. I will be getting new stuff in about a year or 2. We need the seating since we are a family of 4 and we all like to lay on the furniture. lol. The wall color is Teal Stencil from Sherwin Williams. And there are two chairs - I brought the other one up from the basement. If I can't make the wall easily enough, I may hang "the kiss" on the right side of the tv. I will then have to figure out what to put above the loveseat. lol. Thanks again all! Extra special super duper thanks to Paintergirl! ;-)

Dear Kristi, For many years, I was able to access a detailed database via the De Koninklijke Algemeene Vereeniging voor Bloembollencultuur (KAVB) site, which listed information about each registered Hippeastrum cultivar. After reading your most interesting post, my helmdraden (i.e., filaments) are twitching! ☺ I am wondering if KAVB has altered/augmented/updated some of the information contained in its Registry, or if perhaps, there is a difference between the information contained in the official KAVB Registry and their database. In 2012, I was researching Hippeastrum cultivars whose descriptions in the KAVB database included the color purple . As the descriptions of both ‘La Paz’ and ‘Tango’ fell into this category, I saved their detailed information, which is shown directly below this message. Please Note: At that time, the salient differences between the registered cultivars were as follows: The Primary Color of ‘La Paz’ was listed as Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) 185A, and it was further described as eenkleurig / egaal (monochromatic/having only one color). In contrast, the Primary Color of ‘Tango’ is RHS 187B, and it was specified as tweekleurig (bicolored/two-tone). Thank you very much for your efforts! I hope that you will receive additional information, and an ID. Meanwhile, I continue to be curious, mystified, bemused, and amused. Until we are able to resolve this perplexing issue, I will adopt Hans-Werner's apropos moniker ‘La Pango’ with pleasure and merriment!
