I was told that you shouldn't put fabric right on wood furniture as the oils in the wood will stain the fabric. The best wood storage for fabric would be painted wood because it would lock in the oils.

This would be a wonderful addition. Should it be still available and not to expensive, I would buy it.

I hope your sons girlfriend will become your BDIL, Beloved Daughter In-Law.

I had glass cut to fit the shelves holding my quilts. Works great!

Believe me, if it smells of smoke, it will not go anywhere near my house. I am having enough problems with my Allergies - I live in FL, & we just came back from a 7 day cruise. Pollen count is 10+ - I am dying. Thought I had a cold - until I realized that my sneezing, runny nose and sore throat were allergies - I am dyingggggg - UGH

It rained last night thru this AM - COLD WAVE is coming through - CAN'T WAIT -----------yes 40's tonight - Love it

That's what I thought, but I wasn't sure - Thank you

RIGHT - He will just LOVE for me to bring another piece of furniture into the house... been marries over 35 yrs so unfortunately he knows all the furniture we have in the house.

Excuse me, will be cleaning & organized the new shelves in the closet -- if I get rid of the major collection of filled storage boxes in the room - it might work. Need to call about that piece though -
