Found It! Glass and Chrome Side Table
In last night's episode of Melrose Place, Lauren was a bit broody beside a glass and chrome side table. I'm generally not one for this clubby décor, but I will say the table is an example of great modernist design. In fact, it's a pretty iconic piece.
5 Places to Find a Garden Stool Under $100
Garden stools have gotten pretty popular over the last few years, and they don't seem to be losing their cool. Many, though, are absurdly overpriced. I don't want you to fall into that trap because I have also seen plenty of affordable ones.
Cool Idea: A Paint Can Stool
I just noticed this paint can stool in a home on Light Locations, and am completely smitten. Not only is this DIY furniture a great way to repurpose an old paint can (although you know you can recycle them), but it's also just downright cute. I love how this one was upholstered with vintage-looking fabric; it's like a really artsy mushroom.
Steal of the Day: Pottery Barn Rattan Luggage Rack
Still reeling from the parade of friends and family in your home this Summer? Prepare your house for the next busy season by outfitting guest rooms with the Pottery Barn Rattan Luggage Rack ($59.99, reduced from $89). The durable rack, made of thick rattan poles and wrapped with rattan strips, will host a revolving door of suitcases and seasonal gear.
Found It! Samantha Jones's Stool Lamp
For obvious reason, I return again and again to the interiors from Sex and the City. Each SATC lady had her own flair and personal style, and each woman's apartment illustrated this. Right now, I'm loving confident, modern interiors, so I took a look back at Samantha Jones's digs.
Love It or Hate It? Lectus Pile of Books
Lectus Pile of Books ($811), a side table by Swedish designer Josefin Hellström-Olsson, offers storage in each of its stacked books. It's a little "out there" but I can see it making a statement in a modern home. What do you think?
Steal of the Day: Pier 1 Mirrored Two-Tier Console Table
I often forget about Pier 1 because it doesn't do e-commerce, and there isn't a store very close to me. But that's not to say the retailer doesn't have a great selection — and great bargains. This Mirrored Two-Tier Console Table ($79.98, reduced from $149.95) is completely chic and versatile, and such a great deal.
Desire/Acquire: Kartell Stone Stool
Designed by Marcel Wanders, the Kartell Stone Stool ($245) has a very precious appearance thanks to its geometrical facets, which reflect light like a Cartier engagement ring. I'm a fan of the stool's hourglass shape, and the range of colors offered allows you to cue the stool to your room's palette. But, like all of Kartell's products, it is made of plastic ("durable polycarbonate"), and at $245, many of you may consider it a splurge.
Found It! Retro Side Table in Away We Go
The rusty blue side table beside Maya Rudolph's character in Away We Go looks like it has seen better days. But I do love its retro charm. It brings character to a little corner of a lush garden beside a comfortable bench.
Steal of the Day: Americana Cube
I love stars and stripes just as much as the next Yankee, especially around the Fourth of July. But, if I'm going to invest in patriotic furnishings to use year-round, I'd prefer to make a more subtle tribute.
The Pottery Barn Americana Cube ($499, reduced from $699) has all the right ingredients.
