Help Me Find This Lamp
This Fall when I was staying at Seven Pines, an historic fishing lodge in Wisconsin, I kind of fell in love with this cute little lantern. At the lodge it was wired into the (ancient) electrical system, but I'd be happy to have a similar one that only uses candles.
Dear Casa readers, can you find a similar one for me?
Casa Cravings: RoxieB's Halloween Decor
I was wondering what Casa readers were up to in terms of Halloween decorating, so I started cruising through the Casa Cravings lists,where I found RoxyB's list. She has some definitively devious decorations here—if I came across those cats in a dark corner they'd make me scream. How about you?Casa Craving Recap: Pink Ribbon
Yesterday marked the start of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So pink (as in pink ribbon) was the inspiration for this week's Casa Craving Challenge, and I asked you guys to design a stylish kitchen around this light pink color, and this SMEG '50 Style Refrigerator.
It wasn't an easy choice but the best rooms opted for a retro, '50s design, or just mid-century accents, which resonated harmoniously with the SMEG refrigerator.

The latest Casa Craving Challenge is inspired by the emblem of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, the pink ribbon.
So in this Casa Craving Challenge, I’d like you to design a stylish kitchen around this light pink color.
Casa Craving Recap: Funky Chair, Functional Room
Last week, I was obsessing over the cool, curvy lines of design collective sixixis' furniture. My favorite piece, the Lounge Daddy chair (approximately $2,900), was the inspiration for last week's Casa Craving Challenge, and I asked you guys to build a functional living room around this funky chair.
Your mission: Let the chair be the life of the party, and surround it with mellower pieces.

I've totally been loving the cool, curvy lines of design collective sixixis' furniture. This British design collective transforms locally available unseasoned wood into steambent, curvaceous conversation pieces.
Casa Craving Recap: Pink and Gray Palette
I had style on the brain last week during Spring Fashion Week in New York, so for the latest Casa Craving challenge, I decided to use some inspiration from the DKNY runway show.
These colors are really close to the Gypsy Pink and Rockport Gray shades from Benjamin Moore's 2008 Color Trends Report, so your challenge was to design a pink and gray bedroom using this palette.
This was a tough one, but the best rooms pulled off the color combo by going sleek and modern rather than too teeny-boppers.

It's Spring Fashion Week in New York, and I can't help but notice that many of the hot colors from Benjamin Moore's 2008 Color Trends Report are also showing up on the runway. In particular, these looks from the DKNY show rely heavily on the Gypsy Pink and Rockport Gray.
Casa Craving Recap: A Daring Dining Room
I love the antique-looking paint on these Vintage Aqua Dining Chairs ($350). So for last week's Casa Craving Challenge, I asked you guys to put together a formal dining room with these elegant and funky pieces at the center. The only catch was that aqua shade couldn't show up anywhere else in the room.

I have always loved the aqua-green paint that often shows up on antique furniture, like these Vintage Aqua Dining Chairs ($350) at Jayson Home & Garden. (Thanks to Design Sponge for the tip.) The chairs are elegant but funky and could create an unexpectedly playful look in an otherwise formal dining room.
