New Decorative Pillows from Ryan Studio

We just finished uploading the new pillows from Ryan Studio and we just love them.  This is our favorite line of pillow to sell.   It has such an elegance about it-- simple, clean-lined and well-designed.

Here are some of our favorites:

These pillows range between $125-200 per pillow. They are filled with down. You can find them in our decorative pillows section.

French Decor from Aidan Gray

We have to confess--we're not flea-market or garage-sale or Craigslist- kinda people.  To us, one's man trash is just that--trash!  We think it's much easier just to buy new stuff.  You know exactly what you get.  

If you are like us, and if you like that Parisian, French-chic look without having to fly to Paris for the flea market and ship this stuff back home by yourself, you might want to check out Aidan Gray.  They make very French home decor and accessories.

Here are some samples:

Aidan Gray has a great interactive catalog that you can browse through.  You can also buy directly online.

Decorative Pillows from Caroline Cole

We just picked up this new line of decorative pillows and we're really excited about it. It's pretty, it's fresh, it's colorful, but do you know what we are excited about the most? They make the pillows here in the US and can ship in 2-3 days! That's like, really amazing...For some mysterious reasons that we never understand, many vendors take 4-8 weeks to make a pillow!  Think about it.  Dell can build a computer in 1-2 days!  Don't you think that is rather strange?

Here are some previews. We'll be posting these up in our decorative pillows section this weekend so please check back soon to see the rest.

The pillows are made with very nice designer fabrics from F Schumacher and the likes.  They are filled with down/feather.  The sizes range between 22x22 to 24x24.  Prices run between $200-300 per pillows.

Really Cute Bed for Kids

The other day we were shopping for a gift for a kid's room, and golly, everything is blue or pink or yellow. What's up with these three colors anyway? Did someone decide a long time ago that these are defacto kid colors and the whole industry just follow suit?

Frankly we're a little tired of pink and blue. Here are some alternatives that we think would be really nice for kids or teenagers. They are great focal points and you can build themes around them...

The furniture is from Guildmaster (we would have listed the link here but it's for the trade only so it won't do you any good, sorry). Prices for the headboards run from $800 for a twin to $1200 for a queen. Email us if you need help.

Hollywood Regency Mirrors

A while back we saw these mirrors at the Las Vegas home show and we thought they were really cool.  They are a group of individual mirrors hung together.  By themselves they are not that unique, but as a group, well, as a group they just POP!

Take this group of mirrors, for example. 

It actually consists of 12 of these:

These are 12 x12 and runs about $150 each. 

Here  is another one:

These are actually four of these:

These are 32 x 32 and costs about $360 each.

Our favorite is this one:

Which actually consists of this one, which costs about $280

and this one, which costs about $150 or so

As you can see, these can be made as into any size that you want. We like them big--the bigger the better.  The impact is more dramatic that way.

The mirrors are made of lacquer and take about 4-6 weeks. You can find them in our decorative mirror

section.

Pretty Garden Accessories from Barreveld

We don't write about garden too much on this site, mainly because we're no gardeners.  But whenever we see a house with a lush garden we just get so jealous!  It really makes a huge difference.  You can take a crappy house and plant a great garden around it and it will look amazing.

So for those who are gardeners, here are some really adorable garden accessories.  They are so inexpensive too, most of them average about $50-100. 

The web site for these products is Barreveld, but it is trade-protected, sorry.  You call the number on the site to be directed to a nearby dealer.
