everything in its right place

Wednesday, October 27th, 2010

Somehow there is never enough storage in my house. I’m usually on the hunt for creative bookshelf ideas, but these days I find myself day-dreaming about turning my horrid 2nd bedroom/storage pile into a proper office/studio. These wire cube wall shelves would be perfect for keeping crafty supplies out of reach of little hands.

the mother of design

Thursday, April 30th, 2009

lili-liteA bookshelf, with a light that turns off when the book you were reading is laid on top.  Genius, just like the mother of your children.

(Maybe if you’re nice, she’ll hook up your side of the bed for Father’s Day.)

shopping the sale: west elm

Thursday, February 19th, 2009

West Elm has sales all the time; I try to check out the discounted merch every couple of weeks, and generally avoid the “HUGE SALE” e-mails that arrive in my inbox, because inevitably all the good stuff is already gone.

Here’s what I’m ogling today:

1.  Wood Wedges (honestly, these ledges couldn’t look more adorable in a kid’s room, and for $9.99, you can get them in multiples); 2.  Lutz & Patmos Zigzag Throw (these are yummy soft, and worth stashing in the closet for next year’s holiday gifts); 3.  Uneven Squares Quilt and Shams (simplicity at its best, made even better at 50% off); 4.  Quilted Wingback Headboard (if you sleep in a California King–lucky!–this regal bed is a steal);  5.  Upholstered Bed Frame and Headboard (for the rest of us plebes, this headboard comes in smaller sizes and still ups the nighttime reading comfy factor); 6.  Rope Candleholders (just look at them…do they need commentary?); 7.  Wall-Mount Pendant (I love how these make a grand statement, for $69.99); 8.  Abaca Pendant Lamp (summer, at 82% off); 9.  Square Metal Sofa; 10.  Water Hyacinth Pillows (I dare you to show me a house these wouldn’t look great it); 11.  Beach Club Floral Print Pillow (as a rule, I buy anything that has “beach club” in its name); 12.  Sydney Bar (I’m totally putting this inside my house, but I live in Florida, so hopefully all will be forgiven).

As of this post’s publication, some version of the above items was in stock, although it probably won’t be for long.
