These two accent chairs are so similar, both in eye-catching jewel blues, both with pewter nailheads and dark ebony legs. The Eddie Accent Chair on the right is colored a pretty peacock on top grain leather available from Z Gallerie for $1’199.00. The Donovan Wing Chair on the left is a blue turquoise color, and is available from Horchow for $1822.90. Both would be a great punch of color in an other wise neutral palate of taupes and yellows.
The most time I spend outdoors is typically in the evening, so I pay particular interest to lighting up the outdoors. The River Rock Fire Bowl by Restoration Hardware is a steal at $699 regularly when compared to custom made which can range to the mid-thousands. The look of concrete and weathered grays is very warm and relaxing, isn’t it?
The Black Lead Floral Tudor Wallpaper by Woodson & Rummerfield’s is sumptuous and larger than life in this bold botanic graphic. It engulfs and cocoons this romantic bedroom in such a lovely way. The look could have been too deep and heavy if not smartly paired with crisp white sheets and lamps with playful and thin, gold-trimmed bases.
Oh yes, just looking at this bath caddy makes me feel completely relaxed. It can hold everything you’d ever need within arms reach when you are in the suds; a drink, soaps, a spot for a good book, and candlelight. Yes please.
The Wind Bath and Luna Shower are two fantastic options for baths short on space or natural egress. Neptune Products are exceptionally designed especially in this case. See how the free flowing lines allow for more walking space, or just to keep your bath as open concept as possible without the need for a third wall.
As colorful and as sweet as the confections you put inside, these Cupcake To-Go Carriers are a great after party or lunch time packing idea! They are available in seven different colors, and at just $3.49 each, you can send guests home with their very own sugar rush without the mess of cellophane and toothpicks. Bring on the sprinkles! Available at Fox Run Brands.
If you carry more than a few bottles of vintage ports, you may be interested in devoting an entire (climate controlled) room to storing and tasting wine. A wine cellar is great for increasing the value of your home, and looks spectacular when done as well as the Wine Cellar featured in the Ski Magazine Dream home designed by Utah’s favorite Michael Upwall.
We celebrated the long weekend with BBQ’s and playing in the sun with our now toddling toddler. There is just something about this hot weather that has me breaking out the fun colors! These four mouthblown tumbler glasses have such a fun shape! Aptly named the Hula Tumbler glasses, they roll and swirl as playfully as their colors imply.
Check out this little number from the late Alexander McQueen’s 2010 Resort collection! The haunting and intricate black webbing overlay on the buttery yellow dress is divine. The emphasis on symmetry is very flattering on a petite physique. Do you recognize it? It is also the same dress worn by Drew Barrymore for the Toronto premiere of Whip-It. So if you are like Drew, and have a daring sense of personal style, how do you dress your home?
After a lovely visit to the incredible spa at the Muskoka resort; Red Leaves, I am looking for a beverage server like the ones they had dotted conveniently around the spa rooms. Cool iced water with fresh fruits like citrus and strawberries is served ever so graciously in glass beverage servers.
