Unless it were, say, a rare meteor worth $3 million, or of course a princess-cut diamond ring, it's hard to imagine wanting to buy a rock. But that's exactly what I want to do. There's a slew of hip decor items inspired by or made with river rocks, rock crystals, and jagged stones, all of which I'd love to have in my home. From the Viva Terra Soft Stone Pouf ($239), which would Read more
A spa-like bathroom can be spoiled with a few rings of rust. These nasty circles appear easily, but are difficult to remove and are especially partial to porous natural stones such as marble, limestone, and even granite. It seems that many personal care products are trending toward using non-metal materials that won't rust, but my husband's trusty shaving cream has yet to make the switch. So, Read more
This weekend I finally caught up on one of my French cinema Netflix picks, Paris, written and directed by Cédric Klapisch. Set in the City of Lights, the film had plenty of beautiful sights, but it was only natural that the architect character in the movie would live in a hip modern abode. As he walked onto his expansive balcony with stunning city views, I got a glimpse of his cluster of felt Read more
I like the concept of this Felted Stone Lumbar Pillow ($198) by South African textile designer Ronel Jordaan. It has the look of hard stone, but the cushy comfort of any other wool pillow. And, the felt succulents sticking out from between the stones add another charming, nature-inspired element. But I'm not sure I'd actually buy it! What about you? Love It or Hate It?

Whether you put it on your patio or decide to decorate your loft with it, the Maia Outdoor Accent Table ($269) from Pottery Barn is a must have for Spring. Its smooth surface comes courtesy of its blend of resin, stone, and sand, which replicates the look of real stone. Unlike stone, however, it's a much lighter weight, and relatively low maintenance. I love its bulbous base and smooth, dark hue. Read more
While some may find the look of these stone walls a bit too retro for their taste, I can appreciate the effect. How about you?Source Love It or Hate It? Stone Walls Love it Hate it Undecided Read more
TeamSugar member DeJaVuE recently remodeled her basement, which had red brick and stone foundation walls and a dreary striped carpet. She installed wood floors and soft beige carpet, as well as drywall, but she kept some stonework on the wall as an accent. She painted the walls an army green, which lightened it up and gave it a more serene vibe. To see this fantastic remodel, read more Read more
