So, as a little girl I looked forward to Easter and being able to wear a pretty spring dress,  white hat, lace socks and carry a patent leather purse.    How much fun!  Don’t you think your living room looks forward to a little “Easter” update as well?

Here are some of my favorite spring items to add a bit of  “bonnet” to your pad!

Stella & Dot "garden party necklace"

West Elm "summer garden pillow"

Steve Madden "Fauntain"

Liberty of London for Target

Wisteria "delightful doormat - birds on a tree"

Serena & Lily "Freida Collection"

Dash & Albert "zanzibar ticking rug"

Crate & Barrel "emily pillow"

The Limited "spring ruched scarf"

Another part of my elusive search for the perfect design item, the decorative accent pillow!

Here are a few great options at very reasonable prices!  Click on each image to visit the websites!

Atom Designs - Goldfinch Pillow

West Elm - Sunshine Ikat Outdoor Pillow

Pottery Barn - Coral Pillow

West Elm - Shells Pillow

Why is it that when you are looking for something, it mysteriously eludes you?

I thought it would be fun to start a recurring blog entry that involved the search for the elusive design element that will essentially pull a room together.  It seemed fitting to base it on our long-standing quest for a mate!

Here are some great links to fabulous, eye-catching rugs!

This one is from a wonderful store in downtown St. Louis, called Atom!

They have lots more floral inspired mod rugs to choose from online!

Here is a great choice from Pottery Barn.  Neutral, nice scale, would go with almost any style!

WS Home has the zebra rug market cornered!

This is available in both black & chocolate & would complete almost any room!

Keep checking back for more additions to “the one” series!

I’d love to hear what design pieces you are trying to locate!
