Roundup: Curvy, White Table Lamps
Every time I watch Modern Family, I always pay attention to the decor choices used throughout the three families' homes. It's no big surprise that Cameron and Mitchell's home is my favorite, since I featured it the other week.
I really love this curvy, white table lamp that they've placed on the credenza, which you can spot in the right of this photo.
Love It or Hate It? Jonathan Adler Barbie
Since Jonathan Adler has already designed a real-life Malibu dream house, it stands to reason that the designer would follow through with his own line of Barbie accessories, and even his version of the doll herself. The Jonathan Adler Barbie doll ($49.95) comes wearing a chic Adler-patterned trapeze top, along with miniature versions of real Jonathan Adler pieces, including a stylish Channing End Table, Bel Air Table Lamp, Three Stripes Vases, a Lacquer tray, and a Lacquer Barbie Silhouette Mirror. Do you love it, or know a little Barbie-loving girl who might?
Would You Order a Custom Jonathan Adler Design?
Jonathan Adler took the design world by storm with his graphic, happy-chic needlepoint pillows and hand-loomed rugs. Now, he's taken his trendy accessories to the next level, putting design in the hands of shoppers with a new customizing service. Picking from a selection of pillows, rugs, and totes, you can choose the pattern, color, size, and fabric that says "you" the most.
Sale Alert: Midsummer Markdowns at Jonathan Adler
Everybody loves a good scandal. Especially when it's the "scandalously priced markdowns" at Jonathan Adler. The always happy-chic shop has reduced a selection of accessories including dinnerware, bathware, porcelain frames, table linens, and rugs by 20 to 50 percent.
Roundup: Bamboo(zled)
These chairs, from a New York residence designed by Jonathan Adler, may look like bamboo, but you can rest assured that they're made out of wood.
Bamboo-look furniture, accents, and chandeliers have been popular for more than two centuries of interior design. Whether used in a zen-like spare and modern home or a Palm Beach-style beach pad, bamboo-look pieces can look great in a variety of homes.
Cool Idea: Hanging Furniture For Your Home
When furnishing this year's Hampton Designer Showhouse, Manhattan-based interior designer Brad Ford made the unusual, and delightful, decision to replace sofas with porch swings. Inspired by Ford's out-of-the-box decision, I decided to check out some other hanging furniture that would look great on the inside of your home. While some of the choices are classics, others are definitely a bit more unusual.
Nice and New: Jonathan Adler Pop Menagerie Bird Box
Jonathan Adler has harmoniously merged two of my favorite trendy motifs, teardrops and birds, in his new Pop Menagerie Bird Box ($68), and I totally approve. At 10-by-5.5 inches, this little porcelain box won't hold much, but it will bring some whimsical geometric color and pattern into any room. I'd use it to hold keys in an entryway or jewelry on a nightstand.
Desire/Acquire: Ceramic White Animal Napkin Rings
Jonathan Adler's new Animal Napkin Rings ($18 each) are irresistibly adorable. But, a whole set of four will cost you $72 smackers! I don't know about you, but I'd prefer to spend those dollars on a good bottle of wine or an indulgent menu.
Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan Describe Their Greenwich Village Home
Most of us describe our homes in fairly generic terms, tossing out "modern," "traditional with a twist," or "relaxed Regency," if pressed for a characterization. Well, leave it to Jonathan Adler and Simon Doonan to turn dull description on its head. To hear how they describe their home, read more
