I'm glad you agree!

Like that desk in the purple picture. Done and DONE, it looks so good!<br /><br />How neat about your parents blinds! We had blinds but they were all plastic/bendy/lame-o ones when I was a kid, I much prefer the look of these steel ones. Plus, in coordinating colors? YES. I've got a stack of House and Garden still on my desk to get through, so expect more old ads soon!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16842611749073935723noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-22502183818495214372014-03-10T16:48:50.884-05:002014-03-10T16:48:50.884-05:00Curtains are totally classy, I agree with you, the...Curtains are totally classy, I agree with you, there.

Ours were steel, as magnets stuck to them. It was my job to clean them. Really easier than mini blinds. I'd love them in colors like that. Love your old ads so much!karen608https://www.blogger.com/profile/12475931662014505249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1978925481748522797.post-2897431271967815522014-03-06T14:22:12.249-06:002014-03-06T14:22:12.249-06:00this are lounge pants - for sure :-)
