    Those fabrics are just so beautiful - I can understand why you do re-wear. Both you and the bride look beautiful.

When the wall between our family room and kitchen see details here came down we had to deal with two different flooring, old carpet and newish laminate. The plan was to find the same laminate.. we found the box in the basement, how hard could it be?
