FOUR TABLES IN ONE..

And George has the coolest table at the moment.

It is a reproduction Swedish painted formal dining table that is made up of two demilunes and a drop leaf. Together they make a 112"l x 44.5"w x 30"h beautiful formal table.

Seperate them and you have a great drop leaf and two demilunes or a 36" round table.

It is like an instant dining room when you push the demilunes against the wall and just use the dropleaf day to day.

We are crazy for the versatility.

Most people can count on one hand the number of times a year they actually

use their dining room table.

I actually find it a little depressing to have to walk by a huge empty table in a beautiful room.

We love fiddle fig trees. They give rooms a great splash of life and add an architectural element.

Many of our favorite designers use them as standard fare...

If you're new to Ficus... the "Fiddle-leaf fig" is a good beginners Ficus. They are one of the easiest Ficus to grow. Their large leaves collect a lot of light... they can be placed in an area where you can't use a small leaved Ficus. For optimum growth place your plant in direct sunshine or bright filtered light... although they can live in less light. Check for water weekly allowing the soil to dry an inch or two down from the surface. Water thoroughly with tepid water. Don't allow your plant to sit in a saucer of water. Feed monthly while your plant is growing... bi-monthly when it's not.

FRIDAY FLOWERS

We have decided to do "FRIDAY FLOWERS".

Not sure how it will evolve but expect to see a flower of some

sort each friday.

Jannie just whipped this arrangement up with some grocery store

roses and reminents of the garden.

The colors of the roses are amazing. Like an old dutch painting.

Center tables are not just for the foyer.

They are great in large rooms to break up space and create seating areas.
They add architecture and power to any given space

Here are a few of our favorites....
