candles at the crate

these unique candle displays caught my eye on a recent stroll through crate and barrel.

air plants

long-lasting, easy-care centerpiece in a pinch: put three of these air plants in vases in a row on your dining table on a runner and you have a hip, trendy, eye-catching centerpiece.

black and white and read all over

i really like the simplicity of how these books are displayed: monochrome book covers, spines in and out, small to large or all one width.

what's your handle?

i saw these cabinet door pulls and loved them. i inquired about the two matching cabinets on which they were mounted and was told they were george nelson. no wonder the simply-styled rosewood cabinets were $2000 each. even though george's work is coveted, it's these handles that i fell in love with.

simple and clean

my local, very trendy garden shop has a fabulous public bathroom. i really like the galvanized back splash coupled with the live edge counter top, modern sink and wall mount fixtures. simple and clean.
