Unison Home
9

Unison is evolving, and we love it! They’ve taken some of their current pillow patterns, like the sweet Juniper print that everyone adores, and transformed in into placemats with matching napkins. Other patterns now act as tablecloths. Aren’t you loving this?
I really like that they’ve also put so much care into finding gorgeous, very [...]

Absoluut Pillows
5

Say hello to my new pillows straight from Amsterdam. Thanks to Danielle over at the Style Files who blogged recently about Absoluut (that’s with two u’s and no vodka is involved), these retro babies belong to me. And no, I haven’t a clue where I’ll put them, but like most of my spontaneous web purchases, [...]

Linea Carta
1

I purchased this mini clothesline kit from Linea Carta last night on Etsy; I rather fancy the idea of clipping some of my favorite photos, cards, ticket stubs, etc. on it to display over my workspace. And yes, I know I could made this myself, but by the time I purchased the wire and got [...]

Figments
4

I always love to peek in on one of my favorite shopgirls, Peggy Lo, to see what she’s up to over at Figments. I was thrilled to see that she has my favorite roost vases on her site, I purchased one in her Providence location last year and keep it over my sink on the [...]

[This is a little shout out to a friend whom I admire... She doesn't even know I'm posting this, but I am so proud of her that I just have to.]

He let me know about a terrific sofa he’s nuts about called the Giselle from Boston Interiors. The Giselle is such a fabulous price (on sale for $799-), great design, love the tufting detail [...]

Retrouvius
4

I first heard about St. Jude’s from Bloesem and Design Milk, and after clicking around St. Jude’s for awhile, I noticed their fabric used on these reclaimed treasures from Retrouvius, where I spent ages clicking and clicking and well, you get the picture. Obsessing, drooling, craving… All those typical reactions you have when you find [...]

Hi+Lo Modern

Hi+Lo Modern is an online treasure that some may be tempted to keep a secret. It’s one of those finds that you just know, the moment you gush about it to your friends, you’ll never have first dibs again. But I have to share because I’d feel guilty keeping these guys all to myself. What [...]
