Heavy Metal

Lately I've been extremely in to metal in all forms, shapes, and tones. I really love the idea of mixing and matching different types of metals throughout a space to give it character and a bit of edginess. Interchanging shiny polished nickle surfaces with pitted and rusted bronze pieces; or crackled gold objects with dull powder coated silver items can add so much depth to any space. The textures and the tones are effortlessly chic.
Here are a few pieces I'm REALLY loving right now!

2012 First Favs!

It a Brand new year... and guess what that means? Brand new products, color trends and places we love. The first official obsession for the new year is the Jonathan Adler Utopia line. These dual-sided brown stoneware vases, mugs and decorative items are over the top chic and quirky in the best way. My personal favorites are the Large Man/Woman vase. Adding large sunflowers or bright pink peonies will add a touch happy to any table top. Add some umbrellas and place it in a foyer and you have the chicest umbrella stand around. If you don't have room for the larger pieces the mugs are a wonderful addition to your morning coffee. They just make you smile!

I'm also really digging the new store CWonder. This preppy, vibrant store will make you feel like you fell down the rabbit hole and you'll never want to leave! The home decor and jewelry are unique and affordable (my two favorite words!) Check out a few of my favs.
