Rug or art? I say both!



Is there nothing she can't do. Eva Zeisel is now creating flooring. Her art translates so wonderfully into any medium. These wonderful rugs are entirely handmade from the wool of Tibetan sheep. Available at The Rug Company

Eye Candy

Gum drops anyone? I love these gum drop pillows from Amy Butler. I admire her amazing sense of color and pattern. Sewing patterns are available at http://tinyurl.com/dkh7cd

Summer Inspiration

Watermelon means summer to me. I have fallen in love with this particular watermelon. Its name is PureHeart and you can see why, the lovely little heart shaped surprise when you cut into it.

Inspired by Vintage Glass




Here is a glass that is part of a set my Grandmother gave me. I love them, they are so beautiful. I love the balance of the sturdy black stems and the delicate thin glass. I imagine dinner parties where ladies and gentlemen drank iced tea and cocktails from their rims while engaging in lively conversation. What stories they could tell. They are so delicate that I just use them to display found treasures like these chandelier crystals purchased at a favorite antique store.
