And you can't have too much blue and white Chinese import ware. I remember the post when you were gifted those chairs her sister would be happy you have them. I have a four poster very similar to your new one. Got to tell you I have been working on my master and yours has helped me get over the hump.

I would like to do the same to a Suzani I own that has a great pattern, but whose colors are off. Would you mind sharing some tips on how you did that, please? Did you just put it in a tub with bleach and water and soak -- what ratio did you use and for how long did you soak it, please? Then did you just wash on gentle and air dry? I would sincerely appreciate some guidance. <br /><br />Thanks!Sarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15386054381540225193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5948862230201694042.post-62706131629899592382017-02-07T01:11:04.093-05:002017-02-07T01:11:04.093-05:00love everything about your new place

It's actually a really great product if you're laying it over old vinyl, or plywood, (maybe concrete) - but this lot (which didn't have a lot of adhesive on the back of it) paired with the floor - made the install of this VERY difficult. I would recommend the product for those people who have a clean and flat starting surface though - just make sure to check the planks before you open all the boxes to make sure that they all have the same LOT number, and that they have ample adhesive on the back.<br />XO,<br />Aniartisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08328154164462941199noreply@blogger.com
