Teresa's Tubular Tablecloth

Teresa made this super fabulorific, amazingly spectabulous tablecloth for Nora this weekend. More importantly, she made the table under it! You have admired the lovely handmade piece of furniture in Nora's room, no?

We went over to Oakland, met Teresa at her house, headed over to "The Taj Mahal of Fabric Stores" - Poppy Fabric - and picked out the oilcloth fabric and dingleballs.

We spent the afternoon hanging at the Hardy's, and Teresa pretty much just threw this together for Nora.

We have already had one dinner picnic on it, and it works perfectly. Better, it cleans up in a snap, and looks divine.

Thanks Tess for your amazing handy work!

Plant Trees + Stop Junk Mail = Green Dimes

I just found this web site to deal with my huge junk mail problem: GreenDimes. For a dime a day they get your name off direct mailing lists and keep it off, and plant a tree for you every month. So if you want to stop your mailbox from overflowing, and save some trees, take a look at GreenDimes. Note: I have noticed a HUGE reduction in the amount of junk mail I have been getting!
