“the one”…my fave new desks for fall 2013!

It’s back to school time! We all remember the joy of getting new supplies for school & I’m sure some of you are reliving it as you help your kids prep for their first day! The ultimate “school supply” is definitely a stylish & functional desk, which can make even the biggest procrastinator in your house put down the remote and get to work! Here are a few of my favorite offerings for the fall season!

First up, the new Mid Century Desk in White from West Elm! So glad we have a store in St. Louis, now!!

Next up, the stunning Emerson Secretary from Crate & Barrel – love the leather accents!

Another showpiece and workhorse is the Patchwork Secretary by West Elm – love the mixed woods & clean lines!

An elegant addition is the Sentinel Desk from Horchow – I’m always a fan of the spindle legs!

Last but not least, modern & sleek with a feminine touch! – White Spur Desk from Horchow

Hope you are inspired! Happy Designing!

“The One” Stockings

So, I just found out that one of my favorite places for inspiration, Hable Construction, is no longer making all of their pillows out of fun wool felt patterns. And this year is the last year for the wool felt stockings…now here are the results of my web search for unique, colorful stockings! Happy Holidays!

I’m back in search of the perfect design element, this time, ornaments for the tree! Actually, ornaments can serve several purposes during the holidays, some become hostess gifts, others become napkin rings, the list goes on and on.

This one never gets old for me. They introduce new colors every year and the fact that it can be a recliner and still look like a Parisian club chair, I absolutely love!

Houndstooth. Clean lines. How can you go wrong with that?

Even if this chair wasn’t upholstered in a beautiful velvet, it would still make a great statement.

The perfect little mod slipper chair, can be redefined with a multitude of fabrics. Fresh & sleek at the same time.
