Roundup: Leaf Motifs
I fell completely in lust with these Tesori Designs Leaf Chairs (inquire for price), which are made out of a solid Alder frame and can be customized.

The Carver's Guild began in 1970 but they could have fooled me: this hand-carved mirror looks like it dates back to Colonial Williamsburg.

Crave Worthy: Vertical Leaf Pendant Light
Stop laughing. You think this is funny? You know I can't glance at this Megan Auman Vertical Leaf Pendant Light ($240) for one second without pulling out my credit card.
Steal of the Day: Pottery Barn Kids Thanksgiving Leaf Garland
I think garlands are totally underrated. They only seem to make an appearance on Christmas fireplace mantels or at the birthday parties of five-year-old girls. It's totally discrimination.
