This adorable Jeu de Quilles (Bowling) Set ($575), designed to look like toy soldiers, is from 1940s France. With only nine pins left, it's probably a bit difficult to play a genuine bowling game. So, I'd like you to think outside of the alley and tell me how you'd use the set in your home as décor or a furnishing.

Design Milk is loving this Water Bowl Set ($350), designed by Michael Benzer, John P. Gilvey, Wendy Gilvey, and Jennifer Smith. But while the frosted-glass serving pieces have an elegant look, I don't think I'd want them in my home.

It's a trade secret for interior designers to set coffee table books on side chairs, creating an instant, elegant little vignette. You'll often see a small bowl or objet d'art set on top of the books as well. Although this is mostly a decorative trick, it's also a good place to store your coffee table books, instead of allowing them to hog your cocktail space.

If you're decorating a masculine bedroom or a hipster dude haven, or if you just want to show off your taste for rock 'n roll, add a set of Recycled Album Jacket Coasters and a Vinyl LP Bowl ($29) to your home.
Etsy seller Inoudid's Attic is repurposing her husband's vintage vinyl record album collection into these one-of-a-kind coaster and bowl sets (side note: my husband would never forgive me if I started deconstructing his vinyl collection). Each set has nine coasters, made by laminating the album jacket to a piece of Baltic birch plywood.

Su Casa member Erin84 responded to my Su Casa Challenge and posted some gorgeous pictures of her sweet and simple Christmas decorations. She got festive without going overboard by creating a dining table centerpiece with a few silver balls and a single poinsettia flower in a vase, which she then set inside a glamorous bowl.

This weekend, my husband and I are throwing our annual Christmas party, which means that about 70 people will be in and out of our house. Since the party focuses on a flaming bowl of punch and lots of yummy food, we decided to rearrange the dining room and living room for the party for best traffic flow. Our dining room is about half the size of our living room, so it made sense to move the table into the larger room.

I may have been mystified by the synchronized swimmers during the 2008 Olympics, but they're not the only proof of value in symmetry. By using symmetry as a starting-off point for decorating your interiors, you can create a strong visual theme that looks polished, but not necessarily stiff. To get this look, you should start by centering your sofa on one wall, preferably in front of a window.
