But even those can be overpriced. I've been lucky since I've been able to furnish most of my house with Goodwill & thrift shop finds and I'm all about recycling but sometimes you've got to splurge a little.Kimberly Lindbergshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17605498572070631516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8514658573723139183.post-11982813552317908272011-12-20T20:39:01.282-07:002011-12-20T20:39:01.282-07:00You mean Design Beyond Reach - yikes!

But also kind of depressing. It's shame that the Eames' idea of 'The Best for the Most for the Least' has been utterly forgotten by Herman Miller as well as companies like Design (not) Within Reach. At least Ikea has embraced that idea but they're often dismissed by modern designers.Kimberly Lindbergshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17605498572070631516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8514658573723139183.post-51821098894134519892011-12-19T19:41:55.431-07:002011-12-19T19:41:55.431-07:00Thank goodness I saw your post, got it set to reco...Thank goodness I saw your post, got it set to record - thanks!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02480687040381870153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8514658573723139183.post-77233684706561816662011-12-16T14:23:21.319-07:002011-12-16T14:23:21.319-07:00Just put it on my calendar!
