Sooooooo eighties (in a good way, of course!).

Farmstead Mercantile is a nod to the past with a firm grasp on the present. Billed  as a new kind of country store, you'll find an eclectic mix of new, vintage and antiques wares, many of which are made in the USA. Shop co-owner, Jonathan Stone, sat down with us to give us a little history of the store. 

A bold black and white stripe rug can bring a lot of character and visual energy to a room. Just take a look at this dining area in Alexis & Ian’s Designer Pad - your eyes are drawn to that striped rug on the floor! To help you get the look in your own home I've rounded up a few similar option. Check them out after the jump...

London designer Sonya Winner's bright, whimsical and artful rugs would be a stand out piece in any room. Chosen as a Top Pick at this year's Architectural Digest Home Show held in Manhattan, her pieces were a huge draw. With both earthy (one rug mimics the rings of a tree) and graphic designs (triangles fit together with colors that at once sooth and excite the eye) her work is unique and fascinating.

I once had a round rug in my living room and while I eventually grew tired of the color and pattern, I loved the visual interest the circular shape added. It made the room feel open and fresh and pulled together. Designers often suggest using a round rug to trick the eye into making a room appear larger - which makes them ideal for kids bedrooms. Here are ten real kids rooms with round rugs as well as ten round rugs we think would look terrific in a kid's space.

Whether it’s actually beginning to feel like spring or the calendar just says it should be, it’s time to start thinking about moving the party outside! Grab your iced tea (or G&T), pull up a chair and cross your fingers for sunny weather.

Rustic wood, natural materials, and a bit of living greenery give a bedroom a serene, touch of spring feel. Whether your budget is large or a bit less, you can get an Organic Modern room that's both restful and awakening.

Over her years of travel as a stylist and interior designer, Melissa Newirth has been a casual collector of vintage textiles. The growing collection sparked a desire to turn the textiles into modern wares. Thus, Cloth & Goods, an online shop offering a mix of new and vintage textiles and home goods, was born. 

Can you see yourself lounging on one of these leather sofas, listening to Burt Bacharach and drinking whisky? Then this living room design is for you.

The owners of Brooklyn shop Collyer's Mansion, Mauri Weakley and Ben Heemskerk, love nothing more than scouring flea markets and little known shops for unique finds for their home. Their collection of goods began to grow so much that they decided to open a shop. And thus, Collyer's Mansion was born.
