I've got to admit I think the Invisible Bookshelf ($10, reduced from $15) is one of the most clever inventions I've seen all year. But I'm really also digging its nearly invisible price tag! Although it looks like a magical illusion, there's actually nothing tricky to the bookshelf. You simply secure your largest book into the bracket, and then that bottom becomes the shelf itself. Bookcases are Read more

My man wouldn't allow the Chiasso Glam Table Lamp ($88, reduced from $198) within 100 yards of our home, so I'm hoping one of you can take it home instead. Cohabitation sometimes requires sacrificing the super-femme furnishings that I love, but knowing that I can decorate vicariously through you makes it all OK. This sparkling, disco-chic mirror has a playful shine that makes me glad I wound up Read more

I think it's a stunner, and for less than 30 bucks, you really can't go wrong! Read more

Is it me or do these Chiasso Mod Trees ($20) just scream Paris Hilton? Or maybe Legally Blonde? I don't really love them (I actually think they're rather tacky). However, with coordinated décor they could have a lot of potential. I also like that Chiasso describes them as "contemporary plastic"—what does that mean? How would you class up these mod holiday trees? Read more

I've been seeing a lot of frames grouped haphazardly on walls lately, and really love the look. No more need for those pain-in-the-*** levels! I noticed that Chiasso has chimed in on the trend with several configurations of grouped frames ($38-$148) that are already attached to each other.
