My latest project... Daybed???s
Comments (28)You're welcome! For me, it was worth the extra expense to get an authentic looking and quality iron bed. I bought my DS a Wesley Allen bed before I found Charles P and it looks nice, it's a good bed, but it's very lightweight compared to this daybed and my DD2's antique iron bed. Charles P has free shipping right now and I might be mistaken but I don't think I was charged tax, since they're back east. I did wait a few weeks extra b/c I ordered it in a non-standard finish so they made one just for me, but it wasn't a long wait. Another option is Loading Dock Antiques where I bought my DD2's antique iron bed, but they don't usually have many daybeds. You can get a custom finish though if you decide to use a twin. They sandblasted mine to get the old paint off and repainted in a chippy, glazed antique white finish. It's a mom and pop shop (literally), and the wife would call me and send photos during the finishing process. Since it's an antique, it's a few inches wider than a standard twin, but it was easy and inexpensive to order a custom-size bunkie board from a local mattress manufacturer. With the custom finish, it was about the same price as the daybed. I LOVE both beds. Here is a link that might be useful: Loading Dock Antiques Twin Iron Beds...See MoreMy Latest Projects
Comments (26)Thanks, everyone, for you compliments. Ok, Bama, sorry for the confusion. I have one birdbath that I made about 3 years ago and th birds drink out of it and I've never seen a dead one in my yard. And we have lots of trees and birds. I have the red birdbath that I made last year and some thing. The only basic difference among them is that one has the admix in the grout the other one doesn't. This last one is the only one I've sealed with TileLab. I don't know about the design scaring away the birds. I guess you could leave the center of the bowl blank and just mosaic the upper rim. Slow and Shades, I might buy a new container of TileLab. Mine is probably about 2 years old. It's a big container and I hate not to use it, but might need to try a fresher one. Thanks for your input....See MoreLatest Kitchen Project: Somebody Else's Cabinet
Comments (21)Cooperbailey, That's why the doors have hinges. When it's opened you go like "wow! look at that stuff in there!" Seriously, in person you can pretty much see that there's more to be seen inside. The cabinet would not exist were it not for that old glass. And I'm proud of those doors as well. Most people wouldn't notice that the meeting stiles of the main pair is the same board sliced down the middle. Did I do that on purpose? Casey...See MoreMy latest kitchen remodel is done!

Comments (11)This is one nice rental. We have a asymmetrical wall with a fireplace and a surround. My DH and I go round and round. I like the traditional surround and he does not. It turns out our fireplace is low clearance. What we both do not like is the 12 inch square around it. If a mantle is placed, it has to be a certain depth and height. Marble was there, wish our black tile was not there. We have considered placing the marble porcelain tile from the bath. We will have to make a decision soon cuz new flooring in the 1st level....See Moreles917
