rattan dining chairs + a great find!
World Market has, surprisingly, been knocking it out of the park lately! I’ve had my eye on these rattan dining chairs since I first saw them last year. I love the shape and the high backs, and the darker tone and texture would look beautiful against a distressed wood table. They retail for $159 per…

If you’ve ever admired an English country garden, chances are you’ve seen a Lutyens garden bench, named after famed architect Edward Lutyen.

fab find friday: $30 adirondack chair
We need some extra seating for around our pool and I’ve been wanting something clean and classic, so when I found these folding AND reclining adirondack chairs for $30 a pop, I ordered a bunch, along with the matching ottomans for $12, faster than you could say, “SOLD”!

fab find friday: oversized ocean prints by tricia mckellar photography
Ever since I saw the above ocean print by photographer Marine Hugonnier in this Steven Gambrel-designed bedroom, I’ve been hooked.

fab find friday: gray line linen
I love linen…it’s soft and elegant and adds texture and warmth to lots of projects, but it can be super expensive when you need yards and yards of it for window treatments or reupholstery. I was reading Bryn’s blog last week, where I discovered Gray Line Linens, an online discount fabric store that sells nothing…

Kirkland’s never used to be a place I frequented when shopping for clients (or myself), but lately I make sure to stop in whenever I’m nearby, just in case (remember these great finds?).

fab find friday: glass lamps
When it comes to hitting thrift and retail stores like Home Goods and TJ Maxx, give me twenty minutes and I can find something beautiful amidst a bunch of, shall we say, “undesirables”, for lack of a better word. What might look like it won’t work in the store can suddenly take on a new…

fab find friday: bamboo desk
Estate sales can be hit or miss-sometimes you find a treasure trove of goodies while other times, you just end up sorting through piles and piles of junk. I’ve not had much luck at the last three estate sales I attended, but then one day, on a whim, I stopped at one down the street…

fab find friday: wicker stools
A while back, I posted about these , Overstock’s version of the Tolix stool, and how I lamented over them, eventually buying them for my kitchen. They really were a great deal, but unfortunately, I thought they made my kitchen feel a little, well…cold. I’ve always been a fan of these wicker ones from Pottery Barn:…
