The pendant lamp is the little black dress of the lighting world. It works anywhere and there's a style to flatter most shapes and sizes. But once you start looking for the right one, you can find yourself at the crossroads of inexpensive and bland and exciting and ridiculously over priced. The Parasolita Lamp is a nice middle ground...
With fall on its way, we start having a bit of a nostalgic bug. The idea of sending emails seems cold with holidays right around the corner and we like the idea of sending a personal note once in awhile. These letterpress cards from Dude and Chick cover everything from party invites and a nod to big beautiful beards...
Around our home, we tend to be hat fanatics. No matter how many organizational and storage ideas we look into, there doesn't seem to be anything truly ideal for storing them. While out antiquing this past weekend, we came across this aerial hat rack that, which even though it's an upcycled product, worked fabulously!
All City has re-interpreted some of the most classical Portuguese porcelain sets and put a graffiti spin on them. They're almost enough to make us want to sit down with some crumpets and call it a day! Details this way...
On the heels of Apartment Therapy Chicago's post on 8 Ways To Label Your Bookshelves, this board game inspired idea stuck out to us this weekend. Thrifty, fun and 100% customizable...
On this day of remembrance, you might be feeling a little Red, White and Blue today (pun or no pun intended). We've rounded up 10 posts and homes that proudly display their colors and give a little nod to the country in which they live...
In many apartment complexes, condos and loft buildings, companies like to keep things neutral and plain. We understand why, but the more buildings we venture into for house tours and visiting friends, the more we can't help but notice, most everyone's hallway is boring, bland, and a little overwhelming when it comes to color.
We can't help but get a little giddy in the fall. Finding fabulous fall clearance is like hitting the first garage sales in the Spring. There's just something about a bargain that we can't pass up. We've rounded up 15 of our favorite finds, after the jump!
When frequenting salvage stores, one of the ever present items is cabinet doors. They always sit in a pile, off in a corner, just wishing they could have a home like yours. Need some inspiration? Click through the jump...
We just can't get enough of how others display their artwork (as you might have guessed by now). Looking at the perfectly placed work of others not only inspires us to rearrange our own, but to have courage to finally get it all up on the walls once and for all. See our favorites after the jump...
We have a severe love for swings in the home. They just seem to provide the right amount of playfulness, making anyone feel like a kid again. We are however, completely jealous of those with enough space to pull the look off...
We know the Labor Day weekend is supposed to be packed with fun spent with your family and friends, but the truth of the matter is, most of us end up using the long weekend as a final push to finish up some projects around the home. Check out some of our DIY favorites after the jump!
An ex-Boeing engineer collects anything and everything at his home in Seattle. His walls are packed with taxidermy (real and fake), toasters, electronics, vintage prints and paintings, plus all sorts of bizarre and spooky stuff. Check out a few of our favorites after the jump!
This rug has a trick up it's sleeve (although we're pretty certain, rugs don't actually have sleeves). It picks up the radio waves with human contact! Check out a video of it in action after the jump!
We thought we had seen it all earlier today with this striped and labeled house in Omaha, but we do believe that this Chariot of Polar Bears takes the proverbial cake. Why keep such fabulous designs on black 80's panel vans, when you could have it on the side of your house instead?
