That's a bummer. I like them as well and probably would have purchased. I do have a couple of suggeestions though if you are looking to learn something about breathing and/or meditation.

Thanks Lost, Sometimes it just takes a different point of view. It's fun to change your surroundings and for the most part easy. Just move furniture from room to room or change out the light fixture. It does not have to bee all that extreme:-) Let me know if there are any topics you would like to see me cover in future posts. Have a great weekend! Lorrie
Hi Lost, I can see your dilemma. You have a couple of options here. If you were my client, I would advise lightening up the walls so the furniture is the darker of the two. It's a more classic and long-lasting look. If you decide to go forward with a glazed finish, I would advise you to find a professional refinisher to do them. Getting a consistent look is not as easy as you might think. You have to assess the sentimental value yourself but in general I support modifying an antique if it means you will get more use out of it. Good luck! Lorrie
Amen! I live in Florida, where it's always humid, but I find that in addition to moisture it also cleans everything out. I do it at the end of they day to clear out all the allergens and pollutants from they day!
I live way to close to a mall and every time I visit the kiosk dwellers swarm. They all say the same thing to try to suck you in...."Can I ask you a question?". I used to feel badly about saying "no", but not it's become a way of (mall) life.
