Help narrowing down granite choices, any comments?
Comments (22)We only looked at 3cm; the 2cm seemed too delicate although alot of beautiful colors came in the thinner version. We went with 3cm and it is absolutely solid; I'd go with your husbands recommendation of 3cm on this one. Of your photos, we both like the Desert Dream first and the Saturnia second. We don't like the Copper Canyon or Juperana Columbo at all; too much orange (will look even more orange under incandescent light). We too chose an exotic stone and absolutely LOVE it; would not change it at all; would gladly have paid double to get it (yes, we paid thru the nose for what we got!!) and it was well worth it; NO REGRETS. Every day we find a new section to look at or say to each other, 'Hey, did you see this gorgeous splotch of color here?!" or 'Hey, isn't this just BEAUTIFUL?!!' Ours too had mesh on the back. Our fabricator told us this is for preventing damage during shipping & fabrication; they left the mesh on the backside except where your fingers touch underneath on the exposed areas. Ours was dug up in Brazil, then sent to Italy for processing and finally came to the states; that's alot of moving around. We did not spend extra money on a fancy edge; rather, put all the money into the stone. Our stone is so beautiful it would have detracted from it so we just got a plain edge.

Comments (1)Greenfield is a excellent product, very solid construction for the money...I have purchased from them on several occasions and also the parent company Corsi when we needed something on a higher level Nothing but good things to say about them, they have had a couple very minor issues on a few of the projects and were extremely quick to get the issues resolved....See MoreHelp me narrow down my choices to find a Exhibition type Red Rose
Comments (14)Thanks everyone for helping me narrow down my options, and for your great suggestions. So many names so little room in my yard! I really appreciate the great pictures as well. Amazing how many of you guys put in a word for Veterans' honor! Of all those suggested, it got 6/8 votes. It must be a heck of a rose, now I must give it a try. I look forward to testing its' longevity. I've searched other posts here and there seems to have always been favoritism towards Veterans' honor and Ingrid Bergman. Those must be some solid red roses. My take is that Veterans' honor would look better for its single blooms while Ingrid Bergman bush as whole would look great in the landscape-which would be nice to have since my Mister Lincolns are so Tall and Lanky looking. It is amazing the variety available for a "red" rose. Thanks everyone....See MorePlease help me narrow down choices - dining room chairs and bar stools
Comments (21)Your place looks really rustic, reminds me of our old ski house. What do the legs on your table look like? I don't like your first chair option for your place. Depending on the table legs I think the last two chairs might be a good option. I like the turquoise stool in either that or a cream color. I like the idea of the dark stained legs because of the nice contrast they give to the pine in the house....See MoreEmbothrium
