Fresh picks for a New Year

January 12, 2017

Happy New Year readers! Wow – can’t believe we are already 1/3 of the way into January! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday break – I know I did.  A little downtime is so good for the soul, isn’t it?  And my boys must be approaching the teen years because they were sleeping in like they never have before!  I remember many a cold winter Sunday morning at 5:30 am trying to entertain a toddler when it was still pitch black outside. (Hang in there moms of little early risers! Your time will come!)

Anyway, one of the (few) things I love about January are all the new product launches by my favorite stores and companies.  Everyone seems to want to turn over a new leaf in the New Year. I thought I’d share a few new things that have caught my eye from some of my favorite sources.

Mix’n’Match marble shelves from World Market.
How pretty are these? And so on-trend with the mix of marble and brass. Would be pretty in a powder room …

Also from World Market, a super-chic table lamp! Hello … acrylic and brass … always a great combo!

I’m always on the hunt for interesting planters and vases. Especially this time of year, it’s nice to have a little greenery around. These planters from Wisteria are so unique. Alone on a console or pair the two sizes for a pretty centerpiece.

 Also from Wisteria, I love the clean lines and  foot detail on this rustic console table.

Natural fiber rugs are always a great addition to any home. I love that this new one from Serena & Lily has a little pizzaz to it with its gingham pattern. Would be fun in front of a kitchen sink.

New from Terrain, these iron votives are so pretty. The punched metal gives them an industrial flair.

I usually shop Currey & Company for lighting, but I sometimes forget they have great furniture pieces too.  I love this tiered side table with its cast aluminum top.

Isn’t this the best Bin Pull from Rejuvenation?

I’m always excited to see the new collections from Loloi rugs. This rug from their Delphi Collection is so pretty. It’s muted colors would work in a variety of spaces.

Have you all started watching the new season of Fixer Upper?  These wood grain chargers from Magnolia Market are so cute. A fun addition to the dining table.

I didn’t realize until I put all the pieces together in a collage how well they  work together. Can you tell I am drawn to neutral pieces, metal and natural wood?  I think after the holidays everyone is craving a little more simplicity – but things like these can still help warm up your space once all of the decorations are put away.

What changes will you make to your home this month?

Friday Foursome

June 17, 2016

Welcome to this week’s Friday Foursome, where I share a few of the things that made me swoon over the past week. Ok – two weeks.  So it’s officially summer and although I am going to try to keep up the Friday Foursomes – I know you’ll understand if they are a tad more sporadic. #schoolsoutforthesummer #wheredoesthedaygo #summertimenotscreentime

Thank you!

Here we go!

A gorgeous home with a beachy-summertime vibe. (And how cool is that chandelier?)

And speaking of a beachhouse – wouldn’t this light would be perfect flanking bookshelves or lining a stairwell?

With kids home for the summer and all the daily reminders that need to be given – isn’t this is a great way to take one of your list!

If I lived in Venice Beach I would be sure to stop into this cute store to stock up on light and airy bedding and linens.  Fortunately for us Midwesterners, they sell online.

Welcome to this week’s Friday Foursome, where I share a few of the things that made me swoon over the past week.

Hamptons-Compound-Christoff-Finio-Architecture-01-1-Kindesign

Doesn’t this weather get you thinking about summer?  I love that this Hamptons summer retreat was created out of three small barns.

two

fireplaceb&a

A simple and inexpensive way give an old fireplace a clean modern look.

three

fabric

This great fabric from Spoonflower has the look of authentic African mudcloth at a fraction of the cost … would make cute pillows like this …

Chatham-Retreat-Marthas-Vineyard-Interior-Design-06-1-Kindesign

I just cannot stop thinking about the cool light fixture doubled up over a long dining room table in this Chatham, Massachusetts home.

How fun are these sconces? You can fill the back plate with wallpaper. Perhaps use the same print on your walls for a seamless look.

And speaking of lighting – how cool is this light fixture from a great Etsy seller – would be great in a covered porch or sunroom.

Pinch me - I was with Jean Stoffer last night! (Ju Pinch me - I was with Jean Stoffer last night! (Just before she flies out to LA for the Emmys!) what a wonderful event at the Monogram Design Studio learning Jean’s tips and tricks for setting a beautiful holiday table. (It doesn’t have to be perfect or match … lean into nostalgia with vintage pieces and found treasures from travels and take advantage of faux greens … just to name a few!) Plus the talented chefs at Monogram served up the most delicious snacks using their amazing Five-in-One Wall Oven. I’m excited to set my table for Christmas Eve this year and I may just be using Jean’s idea of tying velvet ribbons to vintage coupe glasses. Oh and the dried orange garland!  What are your favorite things to add to your Holiday table?

Do you know the story of how Crate & Barrel began? Do you know the story of how Crate & Barrel began? Newlyweds Gordon and Carol Segal discovered simple white European dinnerware on their honeymoon and decided their hometown friends needed it too. They opened the first Crate & Barrel in Chicago in 1962. So honored to be invited to their 60th Anniversary celebration last night. And let me just say, Crate & Barrel sure knows how to set a table … for 60! Every detail of this evening was beautifully styled in that special C&B way that has made them a favorite place to shop for so many for so long. It was wonderful to hear Gordon speak and the last picture is the lovely cozy view I had for dinner. Quintessential Crate & Barrel. @crateandbarrel #60thanniversarycelebration
