Does anyone know of a store or web-sources for good looking iron angle irons to support some shelves? The Home Depot offerings kind of disappointed me. Thank you!

Has anyone had their marble countertops re-polished. I love the look of marble, but my counters need to be re-done. I would love to know what is involved and if anyone knows a reliable person/place who does this.

Has anyone ever had their marble countertops re-polished/re-finished? What was the process and can you recommend anyone who does this type of work? Any help would be much appreciated. I love marble, but mine needs to be “refreshed.”
Thanks

We found this window in our basement, left behind by the building’s previous owners. It’s about 4 feet wide, and the glass is a bit loose. We’re not sure where it came from, but we’re thinking about hanging it on the wall in our finished basement. Any other suggestions on how to use it, or thoughts about where it might have been used before?

Anyone have a suggestion for this? I’m thinking wood molding and beveled mirrors hopefully. Any suggestions for online or brick/mortar retailers?

Thanks

Hey guys and gals,
With a little one crawling about, I need to put some sort of rug or carpeting over our hardwoor floors. Besides Home Depot and Lowes, does anyone have any local recommendations? I’m thinking about a 15ish foot hall runner and a low-lint 6x8ish rug for the living room. Our current faux persian rug sheds too much. Thanks!

Based on someone else’s recommendation on this blog, I hired Andres Vazquez to cover a sofa and chaise. He did a tremendous job — from reconstructing the stuffing to high quality tailoring, with prompt and honest service. Happy to add my kudos to the previous recommendation. Here’s how to contact him:

I have a European single size bed in my daughters room and am looking for linens, quilt/duvet, etc. European single sizes are shorter and narrower than American twin. Any suggestions on where to find linens in the US are most welcome

We’re looking for a quantity of roughly 80-100 white glazed fire bricks (like the ones shown on top in the picture) also need some corner pieces that are glazed on 2 adjoining sides. Any ideas? Thanks!
