Happy Holidays!

Friday, December 23rd, 2011

Christmas is almost here. Even though the boys are teenagers, they are still counting down the days! I wanted to do a video holiday card for my blog, but it just got too complicated. I wanted to play this music box as the top whirls around. I purchased the music box from an Armonk estate sale many years ago. It is so worn and loved.

Every year I look forward to my sister’s present. Although I love the contents (we get the same gift every year- very special homemade soaps. My favorite is lavender,bergamot and lemon), it is her special wrapping that is just so beautiful. I love the vintage card.

Happy Holidays everyone!

See you…

Poppy Pink and Green Bedding for Girls!

Monday, December 19th, 2011

We’ve already received lots of great reviews  for the new bedding in the shop. It is bedding that fits girls’ bedrooms with a modern or transitional twist.  One that can grow with your child. All beautifully made by Bebe Chic.

See you…

Macy’s Holiday Windows

Friday, December 16th, 2011

Just happen to be strolling by Macy’s the other day. No real crowds in front of the windows. I could actually look, peacefully…  It’s a magical time of year…

See you…

Kyle Bunting Beauties

Monday, December 12th, 2011

There are certain design elements that will have a permanent  room in my design brain. One is the work of Kyle Bunting. His group of designers create pieces from cowhide that are just spectacular. I remember seeing a rug  in Amanda Nisbet’s room at Kips Bay last Spring. See post.

At Highpoint I saw rugs that were Bunting-like. Mass produced, less expensive, but fulfill a niche.

But there is nothing like the real thing…

So beautiful.

See you…
