That's a great suggestion, Angie! Unfortunately I won't be able to get down to the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center next weekend for their sale. I've been trying to plan another trip to the TX Hill Country with my wife, and I'd love to include the Center in the travel itinerary in any event, but it looks like the soonest that could happen is more than a week later. Probably we'll miss an awful lot of the bloom because of the delay, too. Aargh! Say, if you will be attending the sale and happen to reach the P. lutea a bit earlier this time, perhaps you could pick up a specimen for me as well as however many for yourself? (No P. affinis for me, though.) I would repay you, of course, and consider myself as owing you a great debt besides! It occurs to me that I might even be able to return the favor the following weekend. I'm planning to attend the Heard Museum's (McKinney) native plant sale then, and perhaps there will be something there that you would like me to pick up for you. If so I'd be delighted! I've been told that they don't necessarily have all of the plants on their advertised list (see pdf link below for list) and as in Austin things tend to go quickly - which is why I plan to become a member so I can go to the sale's opening night :^] - but I can give it my best try, anyway! Why don't you look over the list and see if anything catches your eye? If you're interested in this idea, let's take it to e-mail. I don't get e-mail sent to me through GardenWeb for some unknown reason, but you can contact me directly at the address below.

Anyone with a large-throat bandsaw could make them for you. Whether or not they'd want to is another issue. Most of the commercial pedestals are turned or mostly round. Another source is Adams Wood Products. I'd like to see you put a proper finish on your table project; those RH tables are just one red wine Kool-Aid spill away from disaster.

If you scroll down in this listing on eBay, the auction says that she also has that lamp, but I don't see it in her listings. http://www.ebay.ie/itm/Mother-and-Baby-Rabbit-Figure-white-resin-3411097-RAZ-Imports-Home-Decor-NEW-/371062338543 You may want to write the seller and ask if she DOES have it available.

I can’t see the exact pattern in the tile, but I googled "damask porcelain wall tile" and came up with several. https://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/SomerTile-11.75x23.625-inch-Cassi-Natural-Decor-Porcelain-Floor-and-Wall-Tile-6-Case-11.94-sqft./18018505/product.html
