Incredible Shades!

I was thinking of waiting until Monday to post this, but I couldn't resist! I came across a company called Delia's Shades tonight on Apartment Therapy, and I am completely in love. If only I didn't have window treatments already!

My favorite:




For a touch of humor:



I am going absolutely insane over these! What a nice option instead of boring shades or more traditional curtains. Oh, I'm going to have to save up for these for our next place!

Kids Art

When we were designing our daughter's room, we found some cute art online, but I wish we had found these first:




Available from pillowsandthrows.com in many colors, 3 sizes, and ranging from $65 for a 12' x 12' to $175 for a 28' x 28'.

Lovely Sofa

I spotted this in my searches this week and wanted to share it with you:

It is the Easton sofa from Restoration Hardware. At about $3000 it is nowhere near being a "steal," but I really like the simple lines, the nailhead trim, and the chocolate brown color.

Pillows Galore!

The pillows on our sofa are torn and tattered, so I have been on a hunt for new ones. However, the pillow collections at my go-to places leave a little to be desired. I was feeling quite pessimistic about finding what I was looking for until I came across PillowsandThrows.com. Here I have found just the kinds of interesting, modern, graphic pillows that I was looking for. Here are some of my favorites:

Thomas Paul Flora Orange ($80)


Thomas Paul Seed ($96)


Inhabit Pussy Willows in Mineral ($60)


Koko Embroidered Pillow ($89)



These are just some of my favorites - check out the website to see lots more!

Sale! Luisa Side Table from DWR

My brother and his wife have this table in white, and I drool over it every time I'm at their apartment:



The Luisa Side Table comes in red, white, and black, and it is on sale for $220 (from $278) from Design Within Reach. The white one would look smashing next to the sofa in our living room. Maybe Santa or the Hannukah Bunny will deliver it...

Drinking Glasses

I think these glasses are too cool for school:



From Uncommon Goods, these Illusion Wine Glasses come as a set of 4 for $75. They are dishwasher safe which is absolutely crucial for me and my unfussy life. They look great with red wine (not quite as much of an impact with white wine), punch, grape juice, etc., and I think they are a fabulous gift for a red wine enthusiast with modern taste.

Drink up!
