I've been crooning over the Chilton Curved Corner Cabinet in Black (http://www.ballarddesigns.com/jump.jsp?itemType=PRODUCT&itemID=11006&fromNewSearch=true&mercadoResultId=1) and they just won't put the thing on sale!!! Unfortunately for me I've yet to find a replica at a yard sale or on CL to redo. <br /><br />P.S. - Ballard's is offering FREE standard shipping sitewide through 11:59pm on August 20th!!!

The difference between you and me would be that my pear would stay moldy because I'd be to afraid to change it! Thanks for the inspiration. Do you know of any places to find 'faux' limes? I had some real ones on my counter the other day and was inspired. Loved the color in my kitchen.

Something Lily Munster would have displayed in her house, next to her cuckoo clock. <br /><br />Seriously, I think you're creativity and enthusiasm go hand in hand. <br /><br />Btw, congrats to the winner of that wonderful pear.Marysolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16988401904186271819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7781670590071996754.post-20626653851233269942009-08-17T23:54:16.923-04:002009-08-17T23:54:16.923-04:00Ah, I miss Friends.
