paint that says it can be painted right over rust. The table isn't rusty. My question? Do I need to do anything to prep that set before painting?

Sand it lightly to give it some "tooth" so the paint will stick.
I'd give it a coat or 5 of satin or gloss varnish on top, just
to protect the paint and help it last longer. Remember to paint and or varnish underneath so the rust stays away.
Good Luck!

You should try "Le chalet des iles" in the Bois de Boulogne. Here's the NYT's review of it http://travel.nytimes.com/travel/guides/ europe/france/paris/68702/le-chalet-des- iles/restaurant-detail.html

The Outdoor Interiors Eucalyptus 3-piece bistro furniture set is ready for immediate use as it comes fully assembled

My idea is to have the children in the class each decorate a tile and then set those tiles on a metal/iron table. What medium should I have the children use? Does the tile need to be kilned? Can I get away with acrylics and a protective gloss? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am a beginner and craft impaired. Thanks

What a great idea! If you don't want the expense and are pushed for time I wouldn't use the kiln method. I have an idea -try pre-glazed tiles(Home Depot, Lowes) and use sharpies to color them. They have sets with 25-30 different colors and different size tips that you could probably find at Michael's or an office supply store. Good luck!

There are so many lovely lovely bistros with al fresco dining here, that's hard to decide which one is my favorite.

I love the Rose Cafe on Rose in Venice. It's a bakery / art gallery / bistro all rolled into one, and has a very chilaxed environment and yummy food. It's also great for people spotting. We saw Cameron Diaz and Leonardo DiCaprio there last week!

A Cow Jumped Over the Moon on Rodeo in Beverly Hills has a lovely patio area.

Bistro de L'Hermitage in Culver City is a delightful Parisian bistro in Culver City with outdoor seating.

Other suggestions:
The Abbey, West Hollywood
Barefoot: 3rd Street, Beverly / Fairfax district
Little Next Door: 3rd St.
Breadbar: Robertson & Century City
There's No Place Like Home: Hillhurst in Los Feliz

I believe OpenTable.com has a list of restaurants with al fresco dining, but these are the ones I can personally recommend.

Hey, I'm moving out my parents house and I need a cheap decorating ideas.I'm gonna be renting a 2 Bed/2 Bath Apartment with a screened in porch. I want to use the 2nd bedroom as a guest room, office,and gym. Most of the stuff I need is for a living room. I'll go ahead and list all the stuff I already purchased below. By the way I know how to sew.

Bed, Dresser and Nightstand
stuff for kitchen( cooking stuff, cuttlery,plates, baking stuff,etc)
Cheap outdoor bistro set
Twin Bed( for guest room)

Well it sounds like you have alot of great key items! I think you could use some accessories! Here's some ideas....

Stores to get cheap but good things:
Ross
TJ Maxx
Home Goods
Good Will
Walmart
Target

Things that would make your place look homie...

Dining Room- Something like Sconces with Candles and a center piece. Maybe Candles or fake modern flowers.

Guest Room- Maybe get a room divider to put some seperation between the gym/office/bedroom.
-Curtains (get some nice fabric since you can sew), cute cheap linens, bright colors

Main Bedroom- Curtains, Candles again, Pictures, maybe a plant.

All in all you need to get theme's for your rooms...that'll help you decorate for cheap! And a great place for easy ideas is HGTV.COM
