So, finally, after a month without a couch, I got one.

It’s a Craigslist find and it’s great, except it needs a little cleaning. So, dear reader, how do you clean upholstery? Steam cleaning worth it? Or should I try something else?

Wow. I like the feel that this is a gigantic night light on crack.

Pretty, though.

I’ve got a soft spot for letterpress and other old-school type things. I’ve got some old letter blocks hanging out in my office and I try to pick them up whenever I see them at antique stores.

I had a media law professor in college who had a table made of the old iron letter pieces from a newspaper. Since I don’t have the pieces (or money) to make a such table, this piece from Crate & Barrel is a great option.

I wish the base where white, though…

Love the open storage on this table by Bald Man Mod.

It’s handmade and there are options for the legs. A great place to store some books or trinkets maybe?

The wood is a combination of birch plywood, walnut and maple veneer.

It’s quite green, with recycled content everwhere. I think it’d be a good addition to a kid’s room, especially since it comes in a number of colors (35!)

If I had a dinky apartment to furnish, I’d totally get this guy, if he ever went into production.

After Casulo was featured on Treehugger, interest blew up and I think they might produce them soon. I worry about the cost and the actual sturdiness of the materials. I love me some flat pack stuff, but it can be flimsy if done wrong.

Go to Casulo’s site.

I’m constantly surprised by the number of sites out lately that make green shopping easier. Search engines and what not. GreenCulture is a pretty good representative of these sites. It’s got a lot of furniture ranging styles, so not only the ultra-modern folks are satisfied, but everyone.

Take a look. 

(Thanks, Ara!)

I really like the mix of modern and natural with this desk from Weego home. I hate to say it, since rosewood has a bad profile in terms of green, but it always look so beautiful. I’m sure there’s a way to sustainably harvest it. Lots of white porcelain accessories or just silver would look awesome here. 60″L x 32″D x 30″H. ($2500)
