Yorktown Road.

While researching an upcoming project I tripped across Yorktown Road and promptly wondered where this shop had been all my life. Owner Carol Gilbert creates her freeform pieces by letting the fabrics guide her, with no working guidelines involved. The colored linens she uses are so deeply saturated that it’s hard to pick a favorite color or piece, so I’ll just take one of each.

Flag Knit Throw.

I’m a closet blanket junkie. Literally, I have an entire shelf of them in my hall closet. Now I’m looking to add this flag knit throw to my collection thanks to Cass. I love how it’s patriotic without trying too hard.

Win It: CSN Stores.


This week’s giveaway from CSN Stores is so rad, you’ll want to have your speaker stands set up and blasting so you can hear me announce it loud and clear!

The Node Bowl by designer Kevin Williams is a nice example of the dynamics of light and shadow. Display it as a sculptural piece or let it chill on your kitchen counter holding fruits and veggies. I think I’d put it in the center of my white tulip table in my kitchen, holding some lemons and limes.

Random Orbit.

I’ve been swooning over the Random Orbit chandelier for quite some time now and have come to the conclusion that if I had a spare $1,850.00 to spend on a light fixture this most definitely would be the one I blew it on. But until that time comes, you can find me drooling over this photo and imagining how much richer my life would be with the Random Orbit in it. The End.
