West Elm Classics.

There are a few products from West Elm that have been staples in my design projects lately.
The Capiz Pendant.  Putting this in our family beach house.
The Morocco Headboard.   Also bought two twins for the family beach house.
The Parsons Coffee Table.  The perfect coffee table.
The Striped Bedding Set  (How perfect for little boys???)
Studded Velvet Pillow Covers.  We are ordering these today for a client’s office.
I have been quite impressed with the quality, particularly at this price point.

HomeGoodies.

I did it again….  Totally crushed it at HomeGoods.

 I wanted this settee, but all I took home was these two.
How adorable for a little girl’s bathroom?

Chartreuse.  Say no more.

Side tables galore.

Love the colors in this Suzani chair.

Gorg.

Scooped up these two for my basement.

A little turquoise sparkle.

 I was DYING over this campaign desk.  It was huge.  If I only had room for it.  I hope whoever gets it give it a good home.

I also bought two of these for my basement. Spoiler alert: orange, orange everywhere!

I so wanted to buy this and paint it.  Unfortunately I was out of time, space and money.  Until next time HomeGoods!

Squished.

A few months ago, I pinned this picture knowing that Christina over at Full House was up to something good.  I had no idea of how good.
You see, Christina is Mom to 5 kids (girl twins and boy triplets) and she is building a new house.  Everyone has the Pinterest dream of the bunk room.  But Christina made her dream a reality (I can’t think of anyone who needs it more!)  And it is gooooood.  Now her boys are “all squished together” as she says.

Swoon.

Kid-Friendly Dining Room Chairs.

Last Summer I posted about some new upholstery items that were delivered to the house.  In that delivery where our dining room chairs.  With all of the holiday entertaining we did, I was able to really put these chairs to the test, and couldn’t be more pleased.
 We inherited my parent’s dining room set a few years ago.  I loved the table and tried for so long to make the chairs work, but they were just SO not me.  I needed something on the cheap.  Enter Home Decorator’s Collection.
I bought 3 sets of these
Covered the fronts in this inexpensive faux ostrich leather.  So great with kids!
and of course, added brass nailheads.
Who says you can’t have your cake and eat it too?  I got the fabric that I love and a kid-friendly dining chair all in one!
By the way, the ostrich fabric holds up fantastically.  I was able to wipe off multiple DRIED red wine stains off of these chairs over the holidays.  Not a trace of wine now!
