While perusing through the new Viva Terra catalog, I saw the most clever desk design… If you’re like me, you have a mini library on your desk too. Mind you, I would never trade-in my stealth bomber of a desk but this library desk design is so pretty and just makes lots of sense… *Photocredit: …
Limoges
I recently bought a cute limoge to commemorate my sister’s engagement. It was placed into a surprise tote along with a heartfelt card, chocolate truffles, candy hearts, and other little goodies I thought the happy couple would enjoy =) Even though I’m not a limoge collector, I can still appreciate their beauty and the cheer …
Fairisle Sweater Clocks, Living the Anthropologie Life
Saw these on sale a few days ago on Anthro’s website. They’re really cute. Who would have thought of creating a sweater clock? Obviously a very creative Andrea Williamson did. If you have extra cash to burn and your bare walls are beginning to get to you, keep these in mind. I’ll take all of …
A Touch of Gothic
King Baby Studio is a little gothic to me. Their aesthetic may not be for everyone but I do like it a lot… So I have my Anthro side and my gothic side (classical Gemini complex). I can’t say I have the pleasure of owning anything from KBS but maybe someday? I also think their …
Facebook’s Farmville
I recently got into playing Farmville (a friend’s influence)… Daily vigilance and not enough time! I’m enjoying myself though and I’m not in it to compete, just to have fun. I imagine it to be my own little Trianon.
New Spin on Purse Hangers
A great potential gift to a sister or galpal is Luxe Link’s purse hangers. From what I see on their site, there’s quite a selection- something for everyone. I first saw Luxe Link featured in Cambria Cove’s catalog. I’m nuts over the Rock Star Swarovski style! Updated: January 12, 2010: I received a beautiful artglass …
Tivoli Songbook
I recently purchased a Tivoli Songbook in green, specifically meant to play relaxing spa music in my bathroom. This was a Ruelala sample sale purchase. DH introduced me to the wonders of Tivoli. I bought him a brown PAL and clock radio a few years ago as gifts. Tivoli consistently offers great sound and design. …
Capodimonte
Recently purchased the new Shabby Chic Interiors hardcover by Rachel Ashwell and fell in love with her vintage pale pink capodimonte jewelry box. I was on the search for something similar and found one just like it, but in pale blue. Unfortunately the seller forgot to end the listing since she gave this pretty box …
Soup & Sandwich Ceramic Tray Duo
Another nice product I saw at UncommonGoods, was their soup and sandwich ceramic tray duo. Too often DH and I are eating meals while watching T.V. I know; bad habit… but I guess trays like these were made for people like us. *Photocredit: http://www.uncommongoods.com
Paper Bag Vases
I was going through a paper pile and found a catalog feature regarding paper bag vases. These handmade porcelain vases are by artist Michel Harvey. I tend to find smaller vases much more useful for my needs than bigger ones just because I like to buy a bouquet of a dozen blooms and split them …
