Some home decor favorites

Crate and Barrel is a great furniture manufacturer, and I've heard from a lot of people (even carpenters), that if you can't afford to go custom, than go Crate and Barrel. The quality is consistently great, and the price is what you'd pay for some not-so-great quality furniture from similar companies. They also have clean design - which is a major plus!--okay, a major necessity!

I *love* the Windham writing desk in white! It's so clean and pretty!

A Crate & Barrel classic - the very cool Ona pitcher

I really really want these cushions in white! I want to put two side by side and use them as a headboard. Anyone know where I can find them in white?

A retro cool toaster from Bodum. Bodum is in my building and they had a sample sale last week, but sadly - and as usual, I had no cash

Bamboo dish racks are the best by far. I love mine cause I just fold it up flat and put it in a cupboard when I'm done. Unfortunately it's falling apart - but this would make a lovely replacement!


This pretty Optic sea glass lamp is only $89, and comes in three colors! This would be great for anyone with a coastal theme going on.

Cool and super useful stuff for your kitchen - and other rooms!

I ran across a the cutest shop in Domino magazine called Black Ink, in Boston. The store sells "well designed, utilitarian house hold items," and other cute objects. If you're in Boston, check out one of their divisions, The Museum of Useful Things, where they exhibit a vintage collection of household goods beside items they currently produce. You can also check out the museum and online store at blackinkboston.com.


I'd have to stick magnets on the back of these too so I could use them in the office.



This tape is such a creative idea! It is "framing tape," which is a quick an inexpensive way to fancify your pictures.
Bee House salt box

Bee House tea pitchers -- I love all of their stuff, and have long coveted a Bee House tea pot


Stainless steel espresso cups

An ingenious recipe/memo/to-do list holder


This laundry bin on wheels would be enormously helpful for lots of things other than laundry, like... rolling magazine storage!


Good old Pyrex, durable, and very affordable


Pretty porcelain keys
