apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

god, was that a lesson in how NOT to write slideshow info. and wow, what a surprise that the $2,800 hippo doesn't sell.

that said: i'd kill for the boontje dining table.

Ung - I agree. It was very confusingly organized but full of interesting information.

This was an interesting bit of insight into regional design differences. Can't say I'm surprised that the ceramic Hostess Cupcake was a bomb, especially in a store that the owner proclaims is not a "tchotchke house!"

Sleeping pigs are IN? I must have been snoozing when that was announced...

I didn't realize the jury is still out on the Louis Ghost chair.

I hope they bomb, so I can afford a set of them after the price drops.

No surprise on the hippo, but I too am flat out amazed by that popular pig.

Thursdays I take the Times and Washington Post's Home sections to lunch with me & knew we'd be chatting later -- there were a few things I've long admired (the Ghost chairs, the Ibride trays, the "lace" bicycle basket), but of all the new ones -- I have to say that for some odd reason the birds' feet just charmed me.

I received a pair of the black bird's feet for Christmas last year, and am still tickled every time I glimpse them. I put them on a small glass block from Roost where they brood in mystery and gather comment from everyone who visits.

That pig scares me. If he is sleeping why aren't his eyes closed? Also, I can't believe she is betting on a silver basket with a bell just seems so so annoying.
