Freddy & Ma are loved by the ladies for their fabulous custom handbags, but did you know that they’ve now launched custom pillows and melamine plates? Oh yes. It’s true. And I’m over the moon because seeing the talented Joy Deangdeelert Cho of Oh Joy! fame as part of the designers involved in this is [...]
Paola sent along updates for her pretty web shop, MirrorMirror that I have to share. I never tire of ceramics and tea towels, and it seems Paola doesn’t either. Just look at these darling things just added to her shop.
Paola has exquisite taste so it’s no surprise that she has additional works, like these ceramic [...]
I’m obsessed with cooking lately. Perhaps it’s because we’ve been staying in a hotel suite for weeks and the only thing I can make in our room is coffee or tea. I miss having my own kitchen! So lately, anything even remotely related to dirtying up the kitchen interests me like never before. From spices [...]
I noticed lots of Greengate products in Stockholm at various stores, and also here in Germany this Danish brand seems to be in many of the boutiques where I shop.
Greengate is a Copenhagen-based company, it centers around a cottage theme, think of Cath Kidston or Shabby Chic. The collection is mostly geared around the kitchen, [...]
There’s nothing like a little Monday morning print and pattern indulgence and I always love to see what textile designer Clare Nicolson is up to so let’s enjoy her for a moment, shall we?
Clare is so super talented with her cute colorful designs, it’s fun to see what’s she’s cooking up. Her cushions are as [...]
As hard as I try to like them, I really have issues with double spring wire plate hangers, especially since one just left a crack in my Lena Corwin plate. So I’ve been on the hunt for something that won’t scratch or crack my precious Lena melamine and I found a solution that really works [...]
Heather Moore (aka Skinny Laminx) wrote to me today (thanks, Heather!) about a new line of tea towels in her shop called Borrowed Spoons. But this pattern has a story, a story about how fellow bloggers inspired this designer. Another reason why blogs that write about the same thing from time to time is not [...]
I was just thinking about Chinese design the other day, so the link to China Sprout from reader Kristi came at the perfect time. I want to plan a dinner party around an Asian theme with lots of teal, white, turquoise, pink, and white (vs. the traditional red) and this may be the perfect place [...]
I’m a little teacup, short and…. Irana Douer wrote to me about her hand drawn, painted porcelain teacups and they’re just lovely! The last batch she offered sold out, so if you like them, here’s the link to her web shop for more information.
These are so unique and delicate looking, they are a piece I’d [...]
Here’s another find from the pages of New Decor, this time it’s a home accessories studio called Lovely Lovely. They carry mostly fun things for the kitchen like tea towels, aprons, glasses and tablecloths. And for kicks, check out their look book which reminds me of Vogue magazine meets The Stepford Wives.

I first discovered Martha Stewart’s new line at Macy’s about a week ago. I know it’s already making it’s way around all the blogs, but I wanted to throw it out there in case you’d not heard the big news yet. And for Macy’s, I think this is big news because I seriously doubt any [...]

Once upon a time, there was a little cottage… with funky chandeliers and the brightest orange walls you’ve ever seen in your life! Seriously, these rooms blow “cottage charm” out of the window, there isn’t a single cabbage rose pattern to be found! How did I come across this place? I didn’t. These images arrived [...]
Robin from Paper Table sent me an email about all their new tablemats, coasters, and napkins and since I’d not heard of Paper Table before, I thought it would fun to blog today. I really like the reusable papers they carry because they’re waterproof, have a matte finish, and are 100% recyclable. And okay, the [...]
I love hearing about new products, it’s my fuel for the day and one of the best things about blogging — sharing the good news the second it hits my inbox. Jen Bowmast, a London transplant from New Zealand, is the designer behind the new homewares and accessories line, Grace & Go. She wrote in [...]
decor8 reader Anna needs your help. Here’s what she writes, “I thought you and your readers might be able to help me with a decision. My husband and I are about to build our first house and I’m trying to decide on a kitchen. I’ve thought that I wanted a simple white kitchen but I’ve [...]
Jill at Rose and Radish sent an email out today sharing their latest exhibition called Tea Time. It looks so sweet in the most beautiful pinks and blues ever! I love that this store takes so much time to make shopping a genuine experience, it’s so impressive that they’ve transformed their San Francisco showroom to [...]
Whenever I’m in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, I always stop by Stonewall Kitchen to stock up on sauces and dips, and my favorite, the Barefoot Contessa butterscotch caramel - it’s simply to die(t) for. Great when heated and drizzled over vanilla ice cream on homemade apple pie. Aside from delicious specialty foods, Stonewall Kitchen also carries [...]
