CURREN CARPET AND FLOORING in Vero Beach Florida has never disappointed me yet ! I always find what I need for my decorating projects. I benefit from passionate expertise of its owner and her vast selection of Verieties of floor coverings. This time I found (to my joy !) a hand made rug in 100% LINEN ,that has an effect of silk. Comes in flax color and white.
Similar to this look I found hand tufted wool/silk rugs available in multitude of colors. "blanket sample" below is showing several different patterns. Fabulous !
From February 12th to April 30th Treasure Coast Of Florida will be seeing 198 of those white flags flying on MEMORY FIELDS in rremembrance of children that died from child abuse in 2008 in FLORIDA ALONE! Florida has a child abuse rate more than twice as high as the national average!!!!!! One more horrific and allarming fact I want to share with you is ,that in year 2006 there were 98 flags . Each flag has a ribbon attached with the name and age of the child. Age varies from 0 to 15 years old (0 comments)
